    Still proving it was a horrible trade to get Battier for Gay? Ahh I see. Now he cant even prove himself on a championship level team with two superstars.

    Erik Sportsbra is not using Battier correctly. He needs to be the #1 option and hold the ball to be effective.

    I shake me head whenever people suggest that Battier has never been a good player when he averaged more than 32 mpg through 13 seasons under a variety of coaches. Sure those coaches are all idiots playing a useless guy so much.

    He's obviously only good at convincing his coaching to give him playing time.

    Battier has been terrible. He doesn't play good defense anymore and hell this guy is a disaster even being wide open nowadays

    Looks to me that he's never been quite the same since his ankle surgery. But yeah, when you to start off with "not very athletic" and then you start to lose a step...it can get ugly fast.

    Too go stone cold from the outside and go from stopper to helpless on D? Yikes. And the Heat have him signed for two more seasons.

    Battier was overrated when he was here too. It is just no wants to acknowledge it.

    I'm pissed! I was watching the game from the start where Indiana took a lead then all of a sudden Miami just caught up like it was nothing. Didn't feel like watching Miami win so I played 2k12. Come back later to see Miami's run didn't last long :D (happy but sad I didn't see it)

    Its clear that LeBron was trying to not let the heat sulk even deeper. From what i took from this was the fact that LeBron was trying to encourage people. he got up for his teammates clapped and pretty much said forget about this one and well get them back.

    He was talking to anyone that would listen not just battier. He was pointing one and seemed like he was trying to encourage. Not arguing with ppl

    (i still want lebron to fail)

    yes. very over rated. I dont know why people talked about his defense. he's the exact same player as scola. Limited by lack of athleticism and pretty raw. No one here would ever say scola is a top nba defender. not sure why people thought so hightly of shane.

    It was clear that Yao's presence, just being tall and in the paint, was the real anchor to houstons defense/.

    Rudy or Durant? I can't really differentiate between the two.

    The only thing the ring-chasing no-stats loser has ever been good at is pr. That's it.

    He was envious of battier's super low hairline and was passionately asking if their are controversial treatments available oversees
