"I'm Back..." Part 1

"Bron-Bron to Wade's World"

- With this move, the NBA is really back and should get interesting.  If it works, Lebron goes back to Cleveland after a winning a title or two and everyone lives happily ever after, but only if Dan Gilbert  apologizes for calling him a slave.
- Shaq to Boston...why it might not work you ask, everybody has bad knees!
- Pippen got his due and MJ was by his side as he was elected to Naismith HOF, top 50 NBA player and probably the most underrated

Final analysis:   One could argue that Lebron, Wade, and Bosh are the new MJ, Pippen, and Rodman/Kukoc/Horace Grant.  I don't see the big deal with them teaming together, still don't think they win 72 games like the Bulls and lets not forget that Kobe Bryant,Slam Dunk Giant, is the best player in the NBA!

<----- Blame this on OSII (LOL)

  1. Lebron's not going back to Cleveland. Dan Gilbert solidified that by acting like a "slave owner."

    Shaq to Boston - I never say never, but they are pretty old. But, they did surprise me last season!

    Scottie Pippen is one of the most underrated players ever. His induction to the HOF and MJ being by his side at that moment was picture perfect!

    Lebron, Wade, and Bosh is just bringing that old-school feel back to the game like it was decades ago. People forget that the "Showtime" Lakers and the Celtics of the Bird era were stacked with Hall of Famers! The only difference is the publicity and the amount of money that is involved with today's game.

    With that being said, I don't think that any of those old "all-star" teams were put together by a group of players taking matters into their own hands. Wade, Bosh, and Lebron put this thing together .... back in the day, players just played ball, and executives/gm's put the team together.

    Oh, and yes, Kobe is still that dude until someone knocks him off the throne! And let's not forget ... the Lakers have done some "remodeling" of their own!

  4. I couldn't agree with you more with Melo going to NY...the east would then become the dominant conference...let's not talk about CP3 going there as well or maybe even TP
