They probably traded him because they realized that he's absolute garbage.

Wow what a beating. I thought OKC would win, but didn't see this coming. I'm just glad it will be interesting now. I didn't want to see a sweep.

I didnt see this coming. I thought the Spurs were going to win the next 3 titles without losing a single game.

The NBA is unwatchable because of the officiating, but I am waiting for one of these Celtic veterans to really start mouthing off about it to the media...should bring the lulz.

22 pts, 6 rebs, 5 ast, and 1 stl against the NBA's best team over the last month. Those are the stats of an over rated under achieving player according to Rob.

Not sure why no one is talking about how KD has fallen off this year in the playoffs /robj55.

did the Celtics or anyone else complain during the regular season when Boston ranked around 27th in free throws attempted per game? They rank 12th I think out of the 16 play off teams. They are a jump shooting team, even their bigs Garnett and Bass float out to the perimeter most of the time. Them mouthing off to the media would certainly bring the lulz because they would look like clowns.

I do think that at some point, KD will have to get that ring or the criticism will follow. It helps that he isn't a piece of shit like Lebron and he doesn't hide when the pressure is on....but rings are a measuring stick for all superstars in the NBA. Luckily for Lebron, he will have at least seven like he promised the "fans"(lulz...i think that is what you call them) of south Florida.

I didn't mention the Heat at all. I'm saying it would be stupid for the Celtics to complain about the style of team they have been all year. They are a jump shooting team that doesn't get to the foul line. I wouldn't expect you to understand how that works, just go along with what uninformed people say.

I wouldn't expect you to spin any less than that.

You're sticking up for the Heat by your post, we aren't retarded...we can see that. Stop eating potato chips by your computer and being anti-favorite team on a message board all day long. There's life on the outside.

Yeah I mean when you have 21000 posts in a few years, ALL THE SAME EXACT THING--spinning and being anti-fan--you're going to be really good at it. Doesn't mean not retarded people can't see right through it.

Karen your last 10 posts on this thread have been quoting a Cleveland fan making fun of or bashing Lebron or the Heat, and you expect us to believe that your post on the Celtics inability to get to the FT line in the regular season wasn't sticking up for the Heat?

Still would like to see where he ran to LeBron's defense when he was in Cleveland.

I've asked you numerous times to show one example of where I was anti Cleveland or Lebron when he was a cav and you haven't done it. It shouldn't be too difficult should it? Don't you give jordo shit because he said you run amok in Bengal threads but he couldn't provide an example? oops.

It's not what you did, it's what you didn't do. How can I show you an example of you not sucking lebron's dick during that era? oops.

Its not that I had nothing, there is no point in even trying to discuss anything when you coa and s&l go into pwn mode. I made a simple comment about Boston not being a team that gets to the line, and when there is no reasonable counter to that, I must be bashing Cleveland or its fans.

Rondo and Pierce drive to the basket just as much, if not more than wade and Lebron. Wade and Lebron have shot 50 FT's in 2 games and Pierce and Rondo have shot 18. Matter of fact Lebron himself has shot (33) nearly double the Ft's of Pierce and Rondo. Wade and lebron have shot more Ft's than the entire starting line-up of the Celtics and they have shot as many Ft's as the entire Celtic team in the 2 games. But go ahead and keep spinning your bandwagon support of the Heat.
Now cue one of your 2 typical, cute, little catch phrases.

I wasn't even adressing your original comment, that was between you and s&l. I was just repping him for his spot on breakdown of you. Not my problem your feelings were hurt.
