What Im saying is his intentions was not to come and lead a team but to ride Wade's nuts to a Ship. Luckily, it was a lockout season/short season and injury plagued playoff teams otherwise we would saw Lebytch like this :sadbron:. So no respect for a Asterisk Ship :pacspit:

Psstttt..

What it pretty much boils down to is that the young black male athlete is gonna catch fierce criticism for any move he makes that he deems as personally advantageous to himself

10 years ago the comment was "all these basketball players care about is bling, money, and cars they're not like _______ who wanted to win"

nikka please :rudy:

It sounds like he's talking more about guys like Allen (and even Malone,etc) that will leave there team to go to a rival, leaving money on the table to try and win a championship on an already contending team

Shyt.....Steve Nash is no different

Atlanta To New Orleans

Basically... I know Allen should go where he can thinks he can get another ring. But he already has a ring with that same formula (even if via trade). So... why would people clap for him to go to the Heat to win ANOTHER ring just because there's an offer there? What's to stop ANY other useful vet from going to Miami once spots open up? Bron, Bosh, and Chalmers are young. It basically sets up to where any old guy who can fill a need in Miami can go there instead of helping another team compete.

Do you not see how that could affect the balance in the NBA in the long run? Not all 30 teams have contending teams every year. No more than 4 do... so what persuades guys like Allen from not heading to teams like Miami when another team could use his talents if offering more money/better contracts to solidify market value won't convince him?

Because other NBA franchises arent charity cases. Ray Allen doesnt owe them other teams shyt. Its his career and if he wants to try and go out a winner thats his choice. The other teams need to work their situation to where free agents will want to go there instead of Miami.
