QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:23 PM) Since when are Rose and Wade drastically different players? They're roughly the same size (both about 6'3" or 6'4" with good bulk), they both have the ball in their hands most of the game, they both do most of their damage on the drive, and neither of them can hit a 3 with any kind of efficiency. That sounds pretty similar to me. Are they exactly the same player? No, Wade is better at finishing at the rim, gets to the line more and plays better D, while Rose is a better mid-range shooter. It's not much of a stretch to say that their respective production/efficiency would go down a bit if they had to share the floor since they have most of the same strengths and weaknesses. They're both good so they'd make it work, but it's less than ideal. Wade can shoot the 3 and post up. Rose is a mid range guy and penetrator. Wade obviously penetrates as well. Bernstein saying they couldn't play together is way off.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 08:01 PM) Did you have to look away whenever they showed Jonah Hill's girlfriend also? Not at all. I watch Mad Men so I'm familiar with her. She isn't that bad looking. Just a plain jane who may or may not need a nose job. I felt more inclined to look away when they showed JOnah Hill but I would missed a lot.

Richard Jefferson opts out of San ANtonio, walking away from 15 million dollars. WTF

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 07:54 PM) knowledge or opinion aside, he does have great contacts after covering the BUlls for so many years. Not questioning his sources, but he is way off base on this opinion.

I don't regret seeing "Get Him to the Greek", but I wouldn't watch it again. Thought the ending was about to go the way of "Chasing Amy" ending or "The Wrester" at times. I can't stand P. Diddy but he was hilarious.

QUOTE (Real @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 07:27 PM) People can hate on Dan Bernstein or whatever, but im just repeating what he, who is a knowledgable nba guy, said. Wade and Rose together doesnt make sense, my apologies if they arent the exact position He must have told you he was a knowledgable NBA guy. He really isn't if that is his opinion. Rose and Wade are not even close to being the same player.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 03:21 PM) I have met Lebatard before and he is a complete self consumed dooshbag. Obviously doesnt mean anything in regards to himm breaking news I just think its funny when guys like him look stupid with some of their "sure bet" reports. If Bosh does not go to Miami in a sign and trade, IMO, his credibility takes a hit.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 11:18 AM) Wait, what? JJ=Redick

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 11:09 AM) I'm still not sold on the Bosh trade to Miami yet even. Do we have any others sources confirming this report? Just a Miami homer. Nothing from Toronto.

LoL Rizzo Everytime I see that guys name, I think of the Jerky Boys.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 10:47 AM) Well, I don't care all that much about Bosh, LeBron is the prize, I just hope this doesn't make him go to Miami. This. I would take Amare in a heart beat if Bosh does end up in Miami. Noah would make up for Amare's lack of defense down low.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 10:04 AM) I thought they picked up V for a second season? I know they dropped FlashForward, I thought I read it was axed. Looked it up, you are right. My bad.

The ESPN Summitt would of been better with just Wilbon and Simmons. Kornheiser just interrupted everyone and Lebatard was a huge Miami homer. At least Wilbon is an unbiased Chicago guy.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:29 AM) It got better about half way through. I liked it. Never saw the original so it's all new to me. I'll pick it up again this fall. Liked FlashForward better but whatever. Um, I don't think that will be possible.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 08:29 AM) Thought that was a good start. Me2. I'm assuming he doesn't take that drink in church since that is where the cut to credits took place. "Louie" was pretty good.

AJ says, "I don't think so".

For a guy who throws 98, Putz sure loves to throw his splitter a lot.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:39 PM) I've began to love Bill Simmons the past year or so and its funny because I hate Boston sports. He is a realistic Boston fan. He was hilarious ripping the Celtics at the end of the regular season.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:26 PM) That's fine. I'm just saying don't expect to know anything more than you do now after watching. I don't doubt you are wrong though. Kornheiser doesn't bring much credibility, IMO.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:19 PM) Don't waste your time. The show was a joke. It was just a bunch of guesses and their personal reasoning for why they believe each guy will end up where. Nothing of any substance at all. I'll probably watch it tomorrow when nothing is on. I think Simmons is pretty smart when it comes to the NBA.

I think if Jenks was with the team, Gavin would be yanked.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 09:00 PM) Sox need to complete the deal tonight. Zack is gonna be a huge favorite to beat us tomorrow night. I bet Vegas lists it as -240. I hear the guy we have pitching has been pretty decent recently.

I REALLY hope we don't give Joe Johnson a max deal. ANyone watch the Free AGency Summit at 6:30 on ESPN with Wilbon, Simmons, Korn, and Lebatard? I DVR'd cuz of softball.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 06:43 PM) Update: McIntyre was seen in Scotland, and creative has been told not to expect him or Barrett until after SummerSlam. That's what I was afraid of. Same thing happened to ANgelina Love in TNA and it took her a couple of months to get back.
