Man, I am crazy enough to believe that we are the best Heat bloggers anywhere... OK here is this tidbit and then off to the magazine review:<br /><br />JGtruth<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:34 pm<br />King, are you of the belief that Sledg.. actually gives opinions or is he just here to instigate crap on the blog? There is no way he actually believes what he writes in my opinion. He is just here to get under the “homers” skin. In other words he is a blog troll.<br /><br />Reply<br /><br />Ohshz<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:41 pm<br />Im not for the return of Sledgy. Are u guys kidding me? He never backs up his claims with facts, and when proved wrong he mysteriously disappears. He has all of his essays saved, so he just copys and pastes his previous facts. The guy thrives under misery. He was talking shyt even after we won the finals. His impersonators made him worse than he really is, but he should find work elsewhere. Plus hes the reason why 2 great blogers are gone in Kbboy and CyrusCyrus The Virushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139216579892672302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267668027513828752.post-40928595624268802022010-08-09T18:41:58.346-04:002010-08-09T18:41:58.346-04:00King Riley

If this blog ...King Riley<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:26 pm<br />If this blog cop named Chris wants us to comment on basketball then it goes that the Heat Beat writer (Ira) needs to serve us bloggers something good to start a commenting thread on because this garbage of not updating the blog by Ira is weak!<br />-------------<br /><br />I totally agree with that, in fact the thought crossed my mind that the sentinel, another local paper or national website should pick up our content if we continue to grow.Cyrus The Virushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139216579892672302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267668027513828752.post-71807848377451926192010-08-09T18:33:27.361-04:002010-08-09T18:33:27.361-04:00Props to King Riley for his thoughts on the situat...Props to King Riley for his thoughts on the situation. KR/Sposux was ridiculous at times last year, but I can honestly say that he has contributed some actual food for thought.<br /><br />Glad to see the Wade bashing has slowed now that he proved to be the great recruiter. I think it is OK to criticize the Heat if you think they are going down the wrong path, but the moderation is necessary at the ss.<br /><br />I am still not cleared for takeoff, maybe weighing in on Sledge's future was not the way to try to reintroduce myself, but I am OK with whatever Chris T decides.Cyrus The Virushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139216579892672302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267668027513828752.post-69041258722309562682010-08-09T18:28:38.116-04:002010-08-09T18:28:38.116-04:00Ohshz

They just needed some time off.<br /><br />Reply<br /><br />Cruise<br />August 9, 2010 at 4:54 pm<br />What about Sludge?<br /><br /><br />Cruise<br />August 9, 2010 at 4:55 pm<br />That’s good news, btw.<br /><br /><br />JGtruth<br />August 9, 2010 at 5:09 pm<br />Blog vote: Is the blog better without Sledgy aka Nbahawk?<br /><br />Do you want to see him back on the blog?

I want to see him eat crow at the end of the season when the Heat win it all.<br /><br /><br />Dsky0921<br />August 9, 2010 at 5:43 pm<br />are you kidding? he’d just claim he was rooting for them all year. he is the most notorious front runner i’ve ever seen….he’s actually proud of it!!<br /><br /><br />King Riley<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:18 pm<br />I want to see the return of Sledgy. I never had a problem with the guy and he should be allowed to post regardless of his controversial team viewpoints as long as he backs it up with solid reasoning sans the homophobic/sexual remarks. This blog has been filled to the brim with Heat fakers that can’t take constructive criticism regarding the team due to the homer honeymoon period. I for one have been blasted in the past for making remarks against Wade and Haslem during the Beasley blog wars but even those that hated my viewpoints such as Ohshz always acknowledged that my viewpoints always had reasoning and backing. While this team looks and appears to be near invincible, there is no doubt that there is room for criticism when warranted.<br /><br />The King of the Blog is back!<br /><br /><br />CyrusTheVirus<br />Your comment is awaiting moderation.<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:25 pm<br />My stance has been no, because he requires so much moderation. With the increased moderation he has been licking his chops at finding that perfect groove where he can instigate without breaking blog rules and trying to bait others into breaking such guidelines and then reporting those breaches of the rules.<br /><br />Nothing can stop this from being the best season in blog history though, because we got them all!<br /><br /><br />King Riley<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:20 pm<br />It’s good to see the imposters gone as I had always been their number one target. My issue with the blog that bothered me most was seeing bloggers like Dino spam non-stop 24/7 but that has been rectified.<br /><br />Reply<br /><br />King Riley<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:21 pm<br />Kbboy and Cyrus the Virus should not be banned or censored IMO.<br /><br />Reply<br /><br />King Riley<br />August 9, 2010 at 6:23 pm<br />And Ira needs to get on the ball and start updated his blog article! He’s been taking it easy the past couple of weeks! Either he does an article or answer more questions on Ask Ira!

The main reason the blog needed an overhaul and moderation in the first place was because of you-know-who.<br /><br /><br />Adrianw743<br />August 9, 2010 at 2:41 pm<br />i hear ya, but maybe the free speech on this blog is viewed as the “Kracken,” and the blog Kracken wont get unleashed until the season starts up lol.<br /><br />always enjoy coming here and just talking basketball, although i am much more interested in x’s and o’s and strategy than the PER arguments and statistical analysis.<br /><br /><br />Adrianw743<br />August 9, 2010 at 2:43 pm<br />sounds like we could use a petition<br /><br /><br />Adrianw743<br />August 9, 2010 at 2:48 pm<br />add he who shall not be named to the petition list. want the blog to be at full strength. those guys will be fine, not much to pontificate on until training camp and thats atleast a month away<br /><br /><br />Dsky0921<br />August 9, 2010 at 2:49 pm<br />if you think that is true than you were not on here a couple weeks ago when the blog went bonkers<br /><br /><br />Ohshz<br />August 9, 2010 at 2:49 pm<br />It really is a shame that we lost 2 really contributory guys on here who have been with us for so long.

I think he is motivated to become a great player... as wide open as he is going to be, I think simple math dictates that he will explode if he can earn minutes.<br /><br />I do worry about the force feeding of minutes of Haslem in particular into the power rotation until Bosh becomes at least as strong as Gasol (maybe he already is? I don't see enough of Bosh, but I know he can play the center spot at an elite level if Gasol can do it).Cyrus The Virushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139216579892672302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267668027513828752.post-36646784632473815302010-08-09T15:40:29.183-04:002010-08-09T15:40:29.183-04:00Ok, back on the topic of your blog.

The potential to be the greatest team of all time exists... team John Dillinger, and they will get better each year.<br /><br />I look at Pittman and Beverley and cannot help to hold them up to Perkins and Rondo standards. It will not happen over night, but I really believe they have the talent to take their games to top ten status in their respective positions if they work hard... and they both have the work ethic and awareness that they will never have this opportunity again. Make it or break it. I have not seen enough of Beverley to know if he can become a true point, but the biggest problem with his game seems to be a lack of confidence... hopefully playing next to the greatest players on any team can help him. He is my dark horse for PG of the future.Cyrus The Virushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139216579892672302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2267668027513828752.post-26250132048941211562010-08-09T15:21:43.438-04:002010-08-09T15:21:43.438-04:00My worry is that by getting sledge banned (assumin...My worry is that by getting sledge banned (assuming it sticks) that things will be so good over there that we will have essentially taken one for the team. I'm wondering if we should create a new blog that we can commercialize. This one is already being flagged. Can one be created that goes under the radar? Also. I want to be more businesslike about it. Tracking how many readers we have... try to boost us up, etc. Getting carried away, but I think we might have a chance to turn this into something if we learn a thing or two... I mean we are covering lbj/wade/bosh heat now... international phenomenon... people are going to be obsessed.

"BROTHERS IN ARMS!!!!!!"<br /><br /><br />Whats hilarious is(i went back and read your piece on u being banned) the same BS continues to go on over there with that bike riding cum bucket named Sledge, and me being who I am, I called his bitch ass out. I didnt even use a personal attack. He insulted the Heat players and called the whole blog some kind of homers as he usually does, and did for about 5 or 6 posts. One in particular he made a comment about Magloire having Hemmrhoids and I simply asked him in my own special way "how do u know?" and "why would u bring up a grown man's butt on a basketball blog?". He went on the attack, called me a name for the 2nd day in a row and reported me for the 3rd time.lmao. I was gone for hourse and when I cam back, Ira's lackey typed something on the blog about "say goodnight kbboy & Sledge". Said something about Junior high and banned us. Interestingly enough he didnt notice the junior high move he made with the slick ass comment of "say goodnight" like it makes him feel good to have some authority. That guy is a bitch. SO I guess he bans me(the big bad homo bashing bully) and bans Sledge for being a tattle tell.I hope that blog dies. All the idiot has to do is get rid of the real trolls, mainly Sledge, and there will be no problems. I refuse to just sit back and let Sledge clown everybody and try to incite baseless arguments, thats y i stir him up.He can dish it but cant take, the opposite of what goes on at his secret "bike meetings" in the boys bathroom at the YMCA.kbboy80https://www.blogger.com/profile/00623525433385046692noreply@blogger.com
