Dan Gilbert's writes a STRONG open letter to Cavs fans

Just curious, how many of those accomplishments came after he and Jordan separated?

Surely a player of as great a caliber as you say Pippen is would have been able to give the Blazers a title (even if they were all in jail.)

By the time he got there he was in his 13th season and was in his mid 30's as a SF...What did you expect him to do for the Blazers at that point....

Dwyane Wade in 2006. Shaq was already on his way down...

That's bull he averaged 20 points per game that year

He also had Alonzo Mourning, Udonis Haslem, Earl Barron, Derek Anderson, Jason Kapono, Shandon Anderson, Micahel Doleac, Gary Payton, James Posey, Wayne Simien, Antoine Walker, Jason Williams, and Dorell Wright.

Name me one player that has one an NBA Championship by himself?

That's not what I was saying. You suggest that Pippen was more than just a role player, while I maintain that his individual accomplishments are just a reflection of his playing with the greatest of all time, Jordan. Championships are a moot point.

Who did you have in mind?

Big Timmy or Wade.

But obviously not one man is going to win a championship, A lot of the people's complaints is that Megastar Lebron is joining two other Superstars to win.

I'm glad he didn't choose Cleveland, because they never truly gave Lebron the pieces to win a Ring. Even if he stayed I doubt they would have made any moves.

The one thing that peeves me is that Lebron always tried to emulate Jordan's career and impact on the game. Both On the court and Off, but going on T.V to take a piss on Cleveland was very selfish and just as classless as the Owner's letter to Cleveland, followed up by bending over to Wade in Miami just does not sit right with me.

But at the end of the day, Lebron will ultimately get his rings, but in reality his legacy will be tarnished and everybody knows it.

You serious man? The Heat getting that ring was at the very least 80% because of Wade.

Seriously Antoine Walker?

:lol:

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
