Not one gm would have declined to sign the big three if they could have. Not sure what tanking and quitting on a city have to do with Miami-- they did neither. Pat most certainly is to credit for these signings. To say otherwise is foolish. Pat put something together nobody even envisioned doing so. This site would have lol if somebody would have told you the Heat would sign the names they have.
Where do I even start..... First of all Knicks, Nets, Miami, Clippers, and GS all cleared cap space and hoped to sign a bunch of FAs so to say Riley is the only one who envisioned it is a fucking joke. Nice fail on that. LBJ and Bosh both straight up quit on their teams/city. LBJ even more so than Bosh, anyone who tries to say otherwise is a fool. Game 5 Celtics, nuff said. Bosh QQed about playing center in Toronto and leaves to.....PLAY a lot of Center for Miami. What a joke. Crying little bitch, LeCharles Bentley said it best when he came to cleveland, "They can put me at punter if they want to".
The Heat, Knicks, Clippers and Nets were all tanking and clearing cap space for up to 2 season before the supposed FA period. BSPN was letting Cleveland know the countdown fucking daily on sportscenter that it became a damn joke. It was horrendous reporting and big reason why I consider BSPN a joke of a network and wish I could invest in a reasonable competitor. They were flat out giddy at the prospect of the juicy storyline of LBJ leaving cleveland. Again anyone who doesn't see this in hindsight is kidding themselves. LBJ gave it all to get to the finals, and lost and QQ'd like a little fucking bitch. That when the whole can't beat them join them mentality started IMO. Olympics next summer.
As for the heat not tanking, excuse while I LMAO. Even your star Dwade was bitching about the lack of moves, and cap space shedding the heat was doing. Not surprised a bandwagon heat fan refuses to remember that though. Interesting how you conviently don't recall all of the bs sheninigans that led up to your team acquiring the "big 3". Even with the big 3, they had a hard time winning the championship and LBJ had to carry them. I hope he realizes that the Cleveland teams were good enough, and no matter what it's never easy. Would have loved to see the Heat go against a hard nose defensive team like the Bulls. Their road would have been much tougher and I would like to see how the heat would have handled it.
To end the pwnage, I would just like to say that your arrogance that the heat model is the correct way to build a team is a fucking joke. It's never been done before and its won one ring. Congrats. They earned it no doubt. For my money I will take a proven method that isn't up to the whim of a fucking douchebag 27 yr old quitter who I have to whine and dine, plead, and beg to come to my "super team". Give me the spurs/det/OKC model any day of the week.
