    Cyberx = Rudy T?

    Anyway, let's just upgrade the bench. Rondo thing appears to be losing steam.

    King Drew said there'd be a leak... In order for there to be a leak there must be information. If he knows there'd be a leak he must know said information.

    King Drew, we comin' for you n*gga!

    The days when GMs only look at FG% has long past. These days, GM look at overall shooting, which includes the ability to get to the line and 3pt shooting. What you say may hold true 20 years ago. But now no one's going to care for Turner's raw stats when he's not making 3s or getting to the line. Volume mid-range shooting players are a dime a dozen.

    Guys, there would only be a leak if there is something to leak. If the Rondo deal fell through and there isn't any other deals in serious stage then there is nothing to leak. Simple.

    The hell? Why would getting Rondo require changing the entire team?

    And even if it does change the team, that's a bad thing? This team as currently construction has essentially no chance of winning the championship. This winning streak is fool's gold and Morey knows it.

    The players coming off our bench look pretty bad. Asik looked terrible to me...

    Well you said:

    As to winning the championship, this is the first year this team has been together, the Heat didn't even win the championship their first year together and they had a "big 3". Killing the depth and chemistry by trading for Rondo wouldn't help their chances.

    If H and H have a problem with someone, who is coming in and is all business, then the problem is with THEM, not Rondo. This team is going to need that kind of leadership at some point in the playoffs.

    That's why Miami needed guys like Battier and Allen.

    Its not happening. They want Parsons and that is an ABSOLUTE deal breaker for us as Marc Stein put it. Ainge expects lottery picks so not happening

    I'm just going by what King Drew said. If no leak, we will know he was trolling us this whole time.

    Drew told us they had been eyeing Rondo over a month ago. He is legit. On the scene before even cyber.

    There was going to be a leak, but Ray Rice knocked them out.
