That list is the definition of trolls. He reads these boards, now he knows. Guess that went over your head.

I can answer for you: Anyone who roots for a team that is not within their home state's borders and/or criticizes any team or player that plays for a team within the Ohio border.

I've been getting criticized for this since they acquired him. Horribly overpaid. Not that effective. Horrible defender. And then Cav's fans claim they got him for basically nothing. Well no shit, Washington would have traded him for a couple Fatheads and a pair of shoes to anyone that was willing to take him. Guess what, there was only one team in the NBA who expressed any interested whatsoever.

The thing about Jamison is that he got thrown in with Shaq as soon as the play-offs started...they never played minute one together. Hard to base how he was last season given those circumstance imo. This year, well, the Cavs suck, and they really have yet to find a real rhythm with Jamison. Is he the go to guy? JJ? I mean they don't have a lot of pieces.

CoA... I will try once again. What are certain posting characteristics that make a "troll" a "troll." What are some certain things that must be present in either a post or a poster that qualifies that person (or post) as that of a troll?

Like I said earlier. Different roster and a different head coach. Miami's current lineup has played what....20 games together? While LBJ and the old squad played for a few seasons...give or take a few players.

A personal attack and the use of fail every other sentence.....yet I'm the troll? lol. You're a real piece of work.

Miami is 12-8 btw.

Not to mention the injuries, inconsistent playing time, shifting rosters, etc.. As far as other teams, plenty of teams expressed interested, but many had owners unwilling to go into the luxury cap. Dan gilbert didn't give a shit, wanted to do anythign and everything to give the Cavs a chance to win.

Mike Jones tweets: “League source says Boston remains in talks with Wizards for Antawn Jamison, but Miami also now among teams with interest.”

Michael Lee from The Washington Post has been told that the Cleveland Cavaliers aren’t the only team interested in Antawn Jamison. The Miami Heat has also expressed interest of late, according to a league source.


Just a couple things I saw about teams interested in Jamison last year. You have been right about some things regarding the Cavs.......this isnt one of them

Looks like dynasty was proven to be a fucking liar troll once again with zero knowledge or credibility to his name. Sounds about right.

I'm basing it on him chucking up bricks the entire post season. I thought it was a good move to stretch the floor, yet he couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. I remember him being a solid player with Washington and he really fell off. Was he that bad towards the end with the Wiz or just when he came to Cleveland?

Lol...Just when he came to Cle. That's kinda the point I guess, he really didn't have the time to "fit in" like he did at Wiz.

At least in my opinion.

I think Jamison was put into a tough position by Mike Brown last year. There is no way that he should have been guarding KG. He had to use alot, if not all or his energy on the defensive end of the floor.

I dont want to make excuses for Jamison, he wasnt what alot of people thought he would be in Cleveland. The Cavs needed a bigman that was capable of stretching the floor. They looked at Charlie V and a few others. I think the Cavs would have won the title had they been able to find a way to bring in Marcus Camby....assuming that Judas wouldnt quit

A troll is anyone who posts with the sole intent of getting a negative reaction from someone else and brings nothing intelligent to the conversation.

Dynasty's definition is absurdly incorrect. You can criticize any team in the "border" (as many fans of those teams do themselves) but it should be done with a post that makes an intelligent contribution to the conversation. "Cleveland is lacking the talent at certain positions this year so I don't think they will be able to compete with the elite teams in the league" is not trolling. "Cleveland sucks lololol" is trolling. Pretty cut and dry.

I was joking with my definition. There are a couple posters on here who would consider my definition to be true, however.
