The reason I'm the only Heat fan who doesn't hate Mario Chalmers is because at least he hit that three with like 20 seconds or so left after that collapse while everybody else just threw up all over themselves.
It just amazes me how they went to Lebron iso ball with Bosh and Wade on the court when the Mavs started to make their run.

Mario Chalmers is quickly playing himself out of the league without Lebron.

Couple things. He's terrible. But he was irrationally confident before LeBron got to Miami. I remember as a rookie everybody talked about he was the most confident guy on the team, and that didn't change when LeBron got there. This is a guy who according to everything I've ever heard was on a team with Peak LeBron and Peak Wade and legitimately believed he was the best player on the team. Bill Simmons should rename his "irrational confidence guy" in honor of Chalmers.

Maybe if Derrick Rose made those free throws in 2008 Chalmers wouldn't be so confident.

Derrick can't feel his face when hes at practice.....but he loves it....but he loves it.

In other drose news he apparently admits to group sex with his bros and claims the girl was upset because she was not reimbursed for a sex toy and because he stopped responding to her calls. At media day rose says whole thing is just the devil at work testing him

Coach Cal says rose told him hes going to be mvp again and will win a title in chicago

Rose says at media day hes looking forward to free agency....in two years.

At least if rose wears a mask to start the season it will be useful in his sex life.

I am loving the NBA 2k16. It is pretty difficult to score consistently.

Im not as high on the spurs as everyone else. Even LA is on the wrong side of 30 at this point. Parker looked toast this summer at FIBA.

I don't put much stock in FIBA play. It's like preseason to me. Lots of NBA players have looked like shit on their respective national teams, but have had stellar NBA seasons.

The Spurs guard depth is a bit of a concern to me. I agree Verb that the Spurs' success rides on Parker. They will likely still be fine. The Clippers have improved their bench quite a bit but jesus, what a Molotov cocktail that locker room will be.
