Um he sold it, and there is nothing wrong with it.

I have no problem embellishing a foul...WHEN IT IS A FOUL. Flopping though....is terrible and it pisses me off.

I'm not arguing with you about Lebron James though. It's a losing battle. You're insufferable when it comes to LBJ.

LOL @ saying LeBron didn't flop on the Nazr shove. LeBron weighs 275 pounds, and he is the most athletic person in the world right now. It would have made more sense if LeBron stumbled a bit after being shoved, but he flew down the court on his ass immediately. LOL.

Yeah it's pretty ridiculous to hear someone (a heat fan especially) try to claim Lebron just fell like that naturally lol I honestly think you could shoot Lebron with a gun and he wouldn't flinch. Dude is fucking jacked.

But at the end of the day, Nazr still initiated it, LeBron sold it, got the call.

I'm all for that...especially in soccer. If you get fouled, sell that shit, but if you go down with no contact like you just got hit by sniper fire then fuck you.

No one is saying what Lebron did was wrong.

Just disagree with those who say he naturally fell like that.

If you can't see that, you're the most biased person in the world.

Grant Hill is retiring.

Had potential to be a top 10 player of all time.

Being in Toledo, I remember growing up watching him every game for the Pistons. Had no clue what I was watching at that age, really. But damn, I looking back, I feel blessed to have seen it all live. He was incredible, and because I watched it every night, I assumed all the stars where that good.

He was easily one of the most complete players to ever lace them up. Too bad injuries didnt allow us to seriously have the "All-Time" conversation with him.

God Stephenson has potential to be a pretty decent player, but he is such a headcase and plays out of control.

Was my favorite player after Jordan retired in 1998.....was an elite player for a bit but his luck with ankle injuries was off-the-chart bad....but those years off allowed his legs to hold up for extra seasons late in his career.

My all-time favorite Dukie

Yep.

But you can tell how much better he has gotten in that regard in just 1 year. Even going back to his rookie/SO years he was better than at Cincy. I think he will get there. He is still only 22 and is only in year 1.5 under Frank Vogel. Fucking Jim O'Brien was horrible and had him for 1.5 years which could not have helped his development.

True. It's definitely something that should come with age and experience, just kind of frustrating to watch as somebody who is rooting against the Heat lol.

Just imagine Paul in about 3 years. That's scary. Kid is still 4 years away from his prime.

1 more year of LeBron in Miami. After Bosh and Wade's performances in the playoffs, no way does he stick around.

I know David West is getting older, but I REALLY hope they resign him to a 2 or 3 year deal. He easily can be effective while losing athleticism with this offense/team. Plus, he brings so much toughness and veteren leadership to the team.

If Stephensen can develop into a more consistent #2 with George as the #1 with everyone else (Hill, Hibbert and West) I think they are primed for a really nice run.

I probably just jinxed George since last year I said if he could become a consistent #1 and move Granger to #2 Indy could beat Miami this year. That prompted Granger to go and be hurt all season long lol.
