Around SBN: NFL Players Ready To Welcome Gay Teammate

"McGrady knows he's not going to get a huge deal at his age. But he's been eyeing South Beach and seems to be leaning toward taking a minimum deal for a chance to play with the Miami Thrice. The Bulls have some interest in McGrady, too."

The Bulls have interest, and they need McGrady more, but once again, a player is "leaning" toward South Beach.

I don't get it

It’s not like the Bulls are worlds away from contending for a title. Do these guys not realize that if they would come here, they give us a pretty good shot?

A vision without a plan is just a dream. A plan without a vision is drudgery. But a vision with a plan can change the world.

Ya but there is a difference

If Miami gets solid role players and a full bench, they are a near lock to win.

If the Bulls get those same guys, they still might not take down the Heat.

Two words

South Beath.

Booze, Beaches, and Bitches. Do ever underestimate the combination of the three, especially for a multi-millionaire

by ERobbin on Jul 14, 2010 3:05 PM CDT up reply actions  

Well two of those three Chicago has plenty of..

An NBA player could find booze and bitches in Alaska. The warm weather is probably a pretty big draw though.

He can’t play anymore

with naan

who eats chicken tikka with rice? its not salan

by regui8er on Jul 14, 2010 6:15 PM CDT up reply actions   1 recs

interesting

salan would suck in rice…if you have salan then you use naan, cuz what else are you u gonna use? Chicekn tikka is for the most part dry, except for the masala, and in plain white rice the masala serves as a sort of extra flavor…its really quite awesome.

by piccolomair on Jul 14, 2010 7:01 PM CDT up reply actions  

really?

 Thats so odd, ive never heard of chawal with chicken tikka, its so dry. its always like a type of saalan(except qorma) thats always served with chawal.

When you goto any desi restaurant, and you order chicken tikka/tandoori, they ALWAYS give naan (tho honestly my pops chicken tikka is too good so i dont really go out for it).

Thats it, lets settle this on Devon, we should have a BaB meet-up there

by regui8er on Jul 14, 2010 7:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

ha bab meeting in devon

I doubt most bab’ers would survive…i mean im desi and i cant stand being in devon, id question how non desis would survive…

I also despise desi food from restaurants, the only desi restaurants i like are teh ones that serve western food desi style (italian express, hot & spicy)…for desi food its home cooked all the way (and made by a family i know and trust)

I was joking about Marbury to Miami with some friends

I would laugh my ass off, but seriously, i can see this happening.

interesting that McGrady at 31 would be willing to come off the bench

behind guys that are expected to play pretty significant minutes.. I could see him fitting the definition of a ring chaser but damn if he isn’t selling his “comeback” way short. He must know he’s got nothing left. Doesn’t it seem like TMac would be better off ring chasing with the Lakers so he could play with his good old buddy Kobe and probably play a more significant role for maybe even a little bit more money than he will get in MIA

by juicewolta on Jul 14, 2010 2:12 PM CDT reply actions  

i guess he's useful in the sense that as a backup he can sort of play 3 positions offensively.

I hope

The Heat fill out their roster with A LOT of older ring chasers and they run out of steam come playoff time.

I don't

like the heat very much.

This won't happen for Miami

Dwayne Wade practically said Tracy’s name in his most recent comments, regarding how his phone is lit up with players that want to play there, but that it has to be the “right mix of guys.” In other words, no aging egos.

Only young egos! lol

by wilsoneads on Jul 14, 2010 2:31 PM CDT reply actions  

I think it's telling that players are calling Wade and not Riley

They know who’s now running this team. If the Trinity wants somebody who wants to come, they’ll be on the team. If they don’t want somebody, Riley will never overrule them.

So…gotta say it: this sort of vindicates the Ben Gordon thing.

Do you really think McGrady has Riley's number?

Like they just hang out all the time. I think it’s safe to assume, players have always called players, they are friends.

How can we help them?

It is Florida after all.

I can predict the future using Norm Van Lier's crystal balls.
