I love Stan Van Gundy's quote about it takes 15 f***ing seconds to say "I'm staying in Cleveland" and the rest just promoting him like he needs it already.

Ima predict David Lee to the Nets later today and he will be overpaid by the Russian owner, but try to sell him (all-star, young, etc..) to LeBron as well.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:40 PM) Interesting that an espn reporter chimes in... He was the one who reported the Wade and Bosh to Miami deal this morning and does have inside sources as well. Broussard might flip-flop on his "predictions," but he is spot on when it comes to sources directly.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:29 AM) I now want LeBron to come to Chicago for the sole reason of making EVERY media source who chose to speculate and report bulls*** wrong. No one in recent days has wanted to pick the Bulls and that's because the front office has been wonderfully tight lipped. No one can argue that Chicago would be the best basketball decision for LeBron so I can't wait for the tiny chance that he chooses the Bulls and the world goes into shock. QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:31 AM) Bulls silence. No Bulls rumors with Lerbon. Boozer randomly jumping on a deal less than what he ultimately could have gotten elsewhere or here. Boozer signing for just enough to leave the Bulls with a max. Ford reporting the Bulls "skipped" on Wade because they want the bigger fish. Best roster where he can still be "the man". I'll be here tomorrow night to simply smile cuz I'll be severely incapacitated already, or I'll simply say I was f***ing wrong I suck. But I'm feelin good right now. You know I'm with the both of you. I predicted Chicago yesterday. Not backing off of it even if he does what I originally said he would do and stay in Cleveland. And if I was him personally choosing between the "New" cities... I'd choose the Nets over the Knicks.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:19 PM) The flying to Miami thing was shot down Man you've been on today bro.

5 errors, 4th straight win.. makes sense.

4th straight win.

BTW.. We left the Nets brass stunned..

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:12 AM) I don't really get your point. As recently as this weekend Wade and Bosh to Chicago was "imminent". So was Wade and Bosh to Miami. In fact.. that was the first thing people speculated about before this whole process started. Maybe that is good for us as most speculated LeBron comming here before the whole process.

Alright I've faded in and out of this game the last few innings. Lets just quickly wrap up this win fellas.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:04 AM) I don't think that is really true because LeBron will be without a doubt the best player on that team and it really wouldn't be close. Kobe was the clear #2 guy on those Lakers championships team with O'Neal being the dominant force. Would he get as much credit as he would with the Bulls where he wouldn't have another superstar? Of course not but there would be no doubt he is the best player on a title team. Sure he will be, but the thing is.. Wade has already proved he can win one without LeBron. Then your adding Bosh into the equation and your pretty much getting ripped forever even if you win 10 rings.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jul 8, 2010 -> 12:01 AM) You sound like me, and we're about to be crushed by the NBA's ultimate p-word. Only difference is.. I could actually see him doing it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) If he really wants to win, I can respect him going to Miami. Thing is.. for a guy with his ego.. I can't see him sharing spotlight with Wade. He'll get the same questions Kobe did when he couldn't win without Shaq till recently.

And Rios nearly misread another flyball... yikes. Thank god he recovered though.

QUOTE (Phil McKrevice @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:45 PM) I think what he was saying is that he wants you to reread your original post and rewrite using sentences that make sense. Who are you? Meh.. not wasting my time... QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:45 PM) No, I didn't understand what you were trying to say...you mean you can't believe we have a player on the big league club that is 21...I gotcha...I just didn't understand what you were saying. Ya I caught the glimpse after I re-read it. Your forgiven Mark.

We are looking like the Pittsburgh Pirates out there tonight defensively.

Wow.. even Vizquel is making errors.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:40 PM) I like this also cause this means Thornton probably gets the night off barring a collapse. God dammit Sergio....

QUOTE (IamtheHBOMB @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:41 PM) Sergio was warming in the pen, Ace. Read my post again. I know, I like it (the 2 out RBI hit by Lillibridge) cause it means Thornton is getting the night off.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:38 PM) Huh? If KW doesn't wind up trading him while his value is high to get say.. a bat for instance.. that's huh.

I like this also cause this means Thornton probably gets the night off barring a collapse.

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:36 PM) Wasn't he a decently high pick as well? He was but to be fair... the Pirates organization (well at that time) was one of the laughing stocks (and internally) in the MLB in regards to their drafting philosophy. He was a pretty good prospect though.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:32 PM) Said it after the very first game. Not sure about the 40 homers, but hopefully he can be a 25 home run, 40 double, 100 RBI player. In our ballpark.. I can see 30+ easily actually. Now 40... we'll see. Still can't believe he have a guy who is only 21 though. Seems like it's been forever, though I believe since Sweeney. (Hudson and I believe Danks just missed) That is of course... if he isn't traded.

Man J.J.... unreal. Chipper Jones was right.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:23 PM) I think we all gave up Lillibridge for dead and never believed we'd see him in a White Sox uniform again. I didn't but thought more-so pinch runner maybe defensive replacement (though his defense hasn't been that great in AAA though his bat in AAA was very good oddly enough) strictly utility. Never thought a hitter but like I said before.. you can't judge guys on sample sizes in the bigs. QUOTE (joejoedairy @ Jul 7, 2010 -> 10:25 PM) lillibridge has been insanely clutch the past week or so. I think he's had more clutch hits than Juan Pierre has all season. But I won't rip Pierre as a player, because he's awesome!.....
