    Great player from the limited amount of action I saw in the 90s

    I was living in the bay area when Run TMC was there - man Tim was good for such a little guy.

    Henchag is asking me for reinstatement to the forum. If anyone has an opinion, please let me know either here or privately. Thanks.

    Let him back in, but ban him again if he doesn't change his ways. Meaning, he should write about something other than the Heat on occasion, and when he does write about the Heat it shouldn't be pure fandom. This is not a Heat board.

    I'm fine with him coming back and toning it down. You all realize, though, that we'd inevitably have to rehash last season's Finals for several pages. ;)

    I'm trying to think if there's ever been a greater shot in the NBA Finals than Ray Allen's 3 in game 6. I think it can legitimately be argued as such. If he had missed it would have changed absolutely everything.

    Put him a short leash DK.

    DK is still gutted. Dude, that is the way I felt when Manchester City won title Premier League title last year. I was gutted.

    Is D Rose better NBA player than LeBron? D Rose thinks so.

    I'd be disappointed if he didn't think so.

    I'm not sure D-Rose is even a top 5 player in the NBA. LBJ, KD are clearly above him, but is he better than CP3? His shot percentages make me wonder.

    He is good but not a proper pg. Hes just an athletic hybrid guard.

    You should read the SEC football threads. Fandom is all that's going on there without my posts.


    I'll side with letting him back in AND not attaching any qualifiers to what he can post, other than to not insult other posters. If he wants to post about nothing but the Heat, fine with me.

    I think it's ok to let him back in. I never had a problem with him being very Heat-centric, it's that he seems to only recognize his fandom of the Heat, and that he was very dismissive of Heat criticisms as "haters". That burns me a little, because I'm a not a Heat "hater", I'm a Pacers fan. They are a rival, and I'm not going to put on kid gloves when I talk about them just because they have the best player in the world on their team.

    I'd say Paul appears to the better of the two, but while both have great talent and heart, neither has been able to emerge as a true difference maker in the playoffs yet. I'll hold my judgement until one of them does. They both have a good team around them so we'll see.

    Henchag wasn't just posting about the Heat, it's just that when he posted about other teams nobody would care.

    dark knight please let him back, so that he does not speak about NBA on our side :) Jokes aside, he is a good lad, and like any Caucasian a bit over-reactive...Having him back would make any forum more enjoyable to join...

    Even you can trace back the thread I made about Henchag, when I started to miss his posts at the Roma forum...Let him back!

    All the roma fans want him to leave their forum and troll here again which is a sign of what we are in for

    So in order to get attention, he attempts to troll and get us riled up. For the most part, except Duck, none of us really took the bite or even bothered to care.

    It's amazing how huge Mike M. was to the Heat's playoffs - hopefully he'll be missed ;)
