  I can't stand Lucas from the bulls. Acts like such a douche.

  The Heat struggle with Chicago....without Rose. Pathetic
• sleeper

  

  I've said it before and I'll say it again. The Heat won't win a championship built like it is now. Wade and Lebron don't play well together, and Bosh is a softy. Their role players are lacking and their bench is filled with washed up veterans like Battier and Haslem.

  We all heard this same stuff last regular season and they went to the finals. Also Chicago plays just as well if not better without Rose because he is a black hole.

  Pacers and Bucks about come to blows. Larry Sanders and David West go head to head, and Larry Sanders acts like he wants to fight, then looks around to get held back. Then gets held back and "tries" to get free lol. Idiot.

  No team plays better without a league MVP. Blackhole or not lol. And if Rose is a blackhole, Lebron is right on par with him in terms of blackholeness by the stats

  Wade stop barkin, you're soft

  Right because Lebron has multiple games of 8-30 from the field. Lebron is unselfish, DRose is not, anyone can see that.

  bet you or I wouldn't call him that lol

  So a few games mean a players a blackhole? Season average for lebron is 19 shots and 6 assists. While Rose is 18 shots and 8 assists. So LBJ shoots more with less assists but Rose is the blackhole?

  Rose takes bad shots, put his head down and attacks the rim looking for only his offense. Before you said he HAD to shoot that much because no one else can score on his team. Obviously that isn't true since their record is the same essentially without him. Lebron has been criticized for being too passive and unselfish, Rose will never hear that criticism.

  I agree he takes bad shots, and often puts his head down and goes to the rim. But if hes settin his teammates up more often than LBJ, bad shots or not, it makes him no more selfish than someone shooting more often than him and passing less

  Rose is not a better passer than Lebron, you really trying to argue that?
• robj55

  

  Taking bad shots when teammates are open does in fact make you selfish. Rose does this consistently, did it every game during the playoffs last year.
• Hb31187

  

  I never once said he was a better passer. I said he sets his teammates up more often than LBJ does obviously if hes averaging more assists. They both dominate the ball and play loads of minutes so its not like his #'s are inflated because of that. Just dont see how you can call players with almost identical numbers in terms of assist to shot ratio polar opposites.
  
  I wouldnt argue with you saying LBJ is a more willing or better passer. I Just argue that Rose isnt a blackhole.

  Watch the games, that will tell you that your argument is wrong. Also, Lebron shares the ball with Wade, Rose doesn't share with anyone.

  Lol numbers dont lie and its not like im twisting them to favor me. Its pretty flat out. But we're obviously never gonna agree.
  
  Probably because I know how you feel about Pgs who are scorers lol

  I get your point, but getting assists doesn't necessarily mean your aren't selfish. Allen Iverson was one of the most selfish players in league history and he averaged what, 6 or 7 assists per game?
• Hb31187

  

  Lol @ Lebron flexing after he knocked dude over on a screen
