    and btw I didn't say there wasn't a reason why Jordan doesn't have Lebrons numbers...obviously because of the type player he was he doesn't have the assists...and because of the centers and having Rodman and well hes not as big as Lebron the rebounds..

    I'm not denying that by any means, I was just stating more that Lebron does have those numbers.  Simply from a numbers perspective, nobody does more on the court then Lebron

    well in theory dwight would be able to sign 1 more extension at max or full value and make up for the 30 mill. So there really is no difference. If he is able to get around the same money on that 5th year from houston that he would of got from LA he really loses the bare minimum and i think he actually makes more money long term because of the insane taxes he would of payed on his contract being a resident of LA ....

    melo is only leaving guaranteed money on the table whose to say some one does'nt still give him around the same amount on that 5th year anyways. Just because it's not inked doesn't mean he wont get it

    kobe who is alot older just got payed 25 mill a year and hes breaking down. Im sure Carmelo will get that 30 mil in that 5th year with or without the knicks

    There's a thing called ADVERTISING in America and the world.

    If you write a book, you don't finish it and put it under your couch cushion. YOU PROMOTE IT to show people the work you put into it. Got it? Is that too hard to understand? Are all the world's authors at attention who res?

    No, I sat around seeing how I would use my Cavs moneyline winnings from last night (a pick I made using only 1 post and 1 sentence).  

    So now you're an author because you go on and on about a pick?

    Exactly because the line doesn't move whether he is in or out but he is certainly worth about a bucket on the line to this team. And even more when he is guarding the other team's star.

    melo is only leaving guaranteed money on the table whose to say some one does'nt still give him around the same amount on that 5th year anyways. Just because it's not inked doesn't mean he wont get it

    kobe who is alot older just got payed 25 mill a year and hes breaking down. Im sure Carmelo will get that 30 mil in that 5th year with or without the knicks
    I disagree with most of that. The extensions can be offered by the very team that gave them the 30 million in the first place. You don't have to 'make it up' in that regard. You get the whole pie and can eat it too.

    Lame duck team lame duck coach.Team is a joke .
    Good luck - I feel its 50-50 .


    I can't get a read and lebron might miss an extra shot or 2 if he plays so that's a bit in your favor.He has worn the mask earlier in his career without a problem.

    Did some research..... took the knicks at +8.5.... line move not scared of.

    They should keep this close unless there is a complete collapse or miami will shoot for 80% the whole game.

    Think this might go over.....

    Thinking Knicks come out shooting well.... Miami keeps up and welcomes the pace so push this over.... games slows down to a crawl in the 4th quarter.

    gamblorman,you are seriously delusional if you dont think that lebrons ceiling is way,way higher than both bird and magic...his numbers compare more than favourably with both them and he does almost everything they do(except shoot as well as larry of course),PLUS he is an athletic freak than can out-run,out-speed,out-jump and out-strength both of them..both are awesome players but lebron is the next step in the evolution of the likes of them.
    wilt chamberlain was more dominant yes of course i have to agree 100% but he didnt have lebrons all-round skills nor the influence to improve the play of his team-mates,as evidenced by his dearth of rings...BUT the most pertinent thing to consider with wilt was the fact that he was a giant among men at that point in time,in that era no-one else was that size and anyone close certainly didnt have that range of dexterity and athleticism.so basically he thrived on the fact that he was well ahead of his time physically.no doubt an astonishing player in that era but if you transported him thru time today he is just javale mcgee in terms of stature..so just another athletic big man that are a dime a dozen really....the game has evolved massively and so has human physiology and do ya think his dimensions wud be enuff to give him dominance in todays league????doesnt work for javale so probably not right??....i mean come on the guy was on the court with 9 other shorter,slower,unathletic,bespectacled white guys wearing budgie-smugglers...how much credence do you really put in those collossal career numbers.
    kareem??again great player but very one-dimensional compared to james...i say kareem probably ranks ahead of him at this point in time based on mainly winning and durability/longevity but that shud change in the coming years.

    so the only player left is m.j....and that is a perfectly reasonable debate to have.it is sooooooo hard to put anyone ahead of jordan and im not willing to do it.this is the debate that rages on in parts lately and you will get heated argument on both sides but its definitely one that has to be waited out till lebron hangs em up cos michael just achieved soooo much and was a beacon of incredible excellence for so many years and such a competitive animal

    The concerns I listed earlier seem to be valid.  I love a write-up with some thought put into it. Albeit, yours focused almost exclusively on the Knicks team..   You convinced me to take MIA -8.5, MIA total points over 105 and NYK total points under 96.

    GL to all.  Keep the write-ups coming brotha!

    Just like the Grizzlies game, the same group of idiots call the game in the second quarter.

    They'll never learn. Ever ever ever.

    This guy is exhibit A leading the idiocy. The others are below him.

    55-50 Heat at the half and the spread is still very alive for everyone.
