Still wouldn't surprise me haha. Despite kicking him off the team and forcing Z to come back at their convenience, Gilbert still don't like it when his slaves don't do what they're told
just to get in the conversation, re: kobe, shaq, malone and payton. the only reason they lost was because malone got injured towards the end of the season. when the playoffs began, he wasnt himself and couldnt play/defend well. also, kobe was acting up again that season and wanted shaq out. now that's Z's signing up, time to target Joe Smith, Ronnie Brewer and Kurt Thomas/Etan Thomas.
But you realize, its not like all 5 starters are going to sit at one time, to allow the bench to play.
I heard he is not as annoyed, Z apparently rejected abc, espn, tnt AND NBATV when asked to make a 4 hour long decision programme.
Lets face it folks...judging by the team they have assembled right now...they are looking pretty damn good. Our only hope now (NBA fan perspective) is to hope for drama (not likely) or an injury.
This is the line up riley sold lebron on Big Z Bosh Miller Dwade The KING!!!!!!!!! Seriously this team could win 75 games eventually. I mean geez Lebron and mo williams won 66 games
only if they want to win 82 games. otherwise, if they are content with 62 games, the supreme trio could just play 35 mins a game
People are kidding themselves if they think Miami won't figure things out. LeBron and Wade are great players and they are friends they will figure out how to play with each other. They have already played with each other before.
What's crazy is you think everyone has to sit at the same time. You take out Wade first, then insert Miller in. Later on you let LBJ sit and bring in Wade to play with Miller. All you really need is an 8 man lineup and your big three will be able to play just 35 mins a game.
MJ and Pippen played in the era when the game was pretty much ISO. They won't step on the other's foot. Just play ISO in turns. Now using zone, if one perimeter player cannot C&S, it's a big issue.
