damn Magic Johnson stepped down wtf?

I mean you just got LEBRON...

Chauncy saying he'd like to see Kemba go to LA.. Kemba + LEBRON.

I'd love to see LEBRON finish it off strong in LA, needs some more pieces, Kemba would be a good one. NBA is all about big3 building now.. surprised Magic stepped down before all of that. weird.

I'd love to see Kemba + Lebron. Kemba does so much on his own I think he'd be a genuine superstar with some other talent to back it up. 

Everyone is saying KD + Kyrie in NY too. That will be a show stopper if they can put that together.

i remember that all star game drama, with the private leaked durant/kyrie conversation.

that'd be cool if it happens. i'm all for shakeups. i really detest the knicks tho.. so not wishing them any success

but ya they'd definitely get NY back on track. that combo would be lethal.

Game post-
This game sucked. New team and new comp. The opposition didn't know how to play. As in seriously didn't know how to play. The refs went easy on them and they traveled a lot, heaps of double dribbles, lots and lots of threes from god know where. It was 45-3 after the first half and we ended up winning 71-8.

wtf? that's awful. LMFAO.

i'd call travel on them every single time. learn to play the game. if someone cant dribble, pass. they could have gone naismith old peach crate style and just passed non-stop without dribbling. lol.

Side note- I never realised how much of an art form alley oop passing is. I almost think you need to be either- highly skilled or a dunker to know or appreciate where to pass it. Last night they threw me about 8 alleys and all were either about 6ft off the ground or bullets that no one had a chance at catching. Even in the other team I play with who are more skilled have no concept of how or where to pass them.

back when i hooped, i threw tons of alleys and i never got anywhere close to dunking back then. so just decent passer i imagine. also tho, i threw alleys to people i've played with before. doubt i threw an alley oop to someone i never played with.. so having that experience playing with someone probably helps.

weird. hip/glute/back felt awful yesterday. and today i went on a fairly solid run. easy sub 8 min/mi pace with no issues. odd. well actually, my right glute started feeling a little weird during the run but never got bad.

my sacral spine (issue) has been inflamed for a while now. i bet once that heals, everything disappears.. that's how weird that shit is.

10:00 AM: bw
- decent
- lats/chest sore

5-10sec paused dead hang chinups: BW x 5
full dips + hold at the top: BW x 5 + (~30-45s)

Wade went out like a boss, triple double in his last game.

He stills looks great.

Dirk's last game tonight too.. damn :f I understand how Dirk went out, i'd hate to have a farewell tour - but it's good for the fans.

gonna be kinda weird but awesome if we end up seeing LEBRON Jr vs WADE JR (Z) in the NBA or college..

LEBRON & WADE gonna be some proud fathers hah.

 

As for the Heat's bad closeout of the season, J-RICH has been hurt for the last ~4-5 games or so.. and that's when we slid.

It's kinda cool how we had this unique throw back style 2G in Wade, and then we somehow found a similar player in J-RICH. J-Rich is very solid, he's fun to watch. He'll become lethal if his J improves.
