STEEL CITY (Pittsburgh) NT'ers STAND UP!!!

Don't blame him either just didn't expect it. Easy playoff team, possibly the favorite for the east unless some teams make some more moves.

Too much competition out west. He would never do that. The East is a joke and gives him a legitimate shot to get to the finals no matter what team he's on out there.
 
Thanks everybody!

As for LeBron, I can naturally say I'm highly disappointed (being a Miami fan to the bone). I get going home and reviving your city but after the shxt the owner talked, the fans treated him and had nothing positive to say? To leave a city that supported you and got you to the finals four straight years? Built the team around you. C'mon son!
Either way he's a grown man and will do what he feels best for him. But in Cleveland I feel he'll never see the opportunity to come close to Jordan's legacy.
 
^I see it the opposite way (this coming from a lifelong Knicks fan who has always hated the Cavs). Miami fans shouldn't have any qualms about "loyalty", because otherwise they would have never gotten to enjoy LeBron as a member of the Heat. Yeah, he won two championships, but Miami had two championships before LeBron came. I feel like if LeBron is able to bring a championship to Cleveland (even if it's only one), it would be his crowning achievement as a pro.

As for a comparison with Jordan, I don't think it's fair - people think Jordan won 6 titles by himself, but they conveniently forget free agents like Ron Harper and Dennis Rodman - players that they Bulls actively went after to complement Jordan. And with their current roster and stock of 1st round picks, anyone who doesn't think the next few years in Cleveland don't look as good or better than anywhere else in the league is fooling themselves.

Yeah, my buddy made that point too. I just feel like the east makes him a one man team. Im not the biggest Lebron fan but i wish him well. Much rather he carve his own legacy than keep wanting to beat Jordan. Hopefully Cavs make good. Love would be a nice addition.

If Carmelo went to the Lakers and Bosh went to Houston then it would be significantly easier to say that LeBron is a one man team in the East. Fortunately enough for us, as fans, Carmelo is stuck between the Bulls and the Knicks, and we already got news of Bosh staying in Miami (where I think Wade will stay too) which will still make the East competitive. We know Pat Riley will go into FA and surround Bosh and probably Wade with another role player, but they won't be legitimate contenders. Plus we need to think about other free agents in Brooklyn and Indiana (currently shopping Hibbert/Stephenson is gonna move too probably).

Going back to LeBron, he stated himself that winning Championships isn't just going to happen; it's going to take time and patience. So we will see what happens. I'm happy for him too even though I was disgusted by his actions back in 2010 and i'm the furthest thing from a Heat fan (OKC fan here). People forget that this Cavs team is so young and raw they're not guaranteed ****. But they do have talent all around and the addition of LBJ is significant that's for sure. At the end of the day it's always about rings - I can't fault him for chasing the dream and accomplishing it twice already. But not everyone is destined to stay on the same team throughout their career and win championships. The best examples of this would be Shaq and Robert Horry doing it with MULTIPLE teams.
 
Love that shoe. No kicks for me today, still sitting at Magee. But I did order the Kobe MJs :smile:
 
Already got the "shipped" email lol. Can't wait to see these in person and try them on. Also received my Hamptons fila 96 today. I'll post pictures when I find time
 
I did too. I'm not so sure on this kd colorway but I want it to fit bad because the shoe is very nice. I'm probably going to pick up a suns 8 on that restock tomorrow and maybe grab a 3rd playoff since the 8 is my favorite j

How's the sleep coming so far?

Going ok for me, not so great for wife!

Is it really that tough to find a contractor in Pittsburgh who will install supplied parts? I have a shower door from Amazon and a garage door opener from Lowe's.. seems impossible to find someone to just take my cash and do the job lol

Yeah pretty much since every installer wants to double as a salesman. There are still some handymen around.
 
Sucks man, I just wanna pay somebody and get it done honestly and reliably..I knew so many people in Florida and know nobody here
