    Scottie Pippen iced his knees for most of his career. Never had a significant knee injury. Dennis Rodman too.

    Magic never had handles like that. Nor could he get by his defender like that either. He was however, a much better passer than Chris Paul.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Are you joking? I heard tons of fans say that James was a coward, couldn't win on his own so was going to ride the coattails of Wade.

    Here's an example:

    From the comments on this link.

    One comment doesn't prove much (except disproving your bizarre contention that no one said that), but then, I'd have to make a full-time job of doing Google searches to prove that tons of people said it, which I'm not interested in doing. ;) I heard a ton of this. If you didn't, we had very, very different experiences of the sports on the Internet in 2010, heh.

    I misread your post. I thought you were saying that Wade would be riding Lebron's coattails.

    After re-reading the Houston Game 6 thread on Clutchfans, I felt like re-watching Game 6. This is going to be fun!

    Just led Serbia in scoring against France with 21 and 7. Poor man's Pekovic.

    Apparently Rajon Rondo has informed Boston that he "wants out". I bet he ends up in Sacramento.

    Are you sure you're not confusing him with Chris Webber?

    Grizzlies just waived Jamaal Franklin. AKA "Will Barton without a jumpshot".

    Not sure how I feel about this:

    [TWEET]506184457439965184[/TWEET]

    My first thought is that, since Jason Terry is a shell of his former self, it won't make much difference.

    Obviously Sacto is just doing this as a precursor to landing Rondo...

    the Kings would be fools to trade for Rondo because he doesn't want to be there and won't extend, he basically demanded a trade but not there.

    I have to say that this style of meme is one of the best things the Internet has birthed.
