That series of pictures almost makes me want to pull for the Mavs. That shite is pathetic. If those guys don't get focused and stop with that bullshite this series won't make it back to Miami

But I'm sure when Shaq did one of his many "stare downs" or shoulder shimmies running back up court after a monster dunk you were OK with that? ?Or how about when he flexed the biceps or gave himself a new nickname?

And yet we see this every time Stevenson hits a three. Thank god it isn't that often.

I hate seeing that guy period

You're reaching man. Heat fan or not, cam you honestly say that you don't think they are a little over the top with their celebrations??

How am I reaching? This is the age we live in. Athletes who see themselves as entertainers as much as they are athletes. I don't think the Heat is any different than any other team in any other sport. Football players making a big hit and taunting the opponent, sack dances, choreographed end zone celebrations, throat slashes,......all that shite. Baseball players watching HR's from the batters box.... pitchers pumping fists after a big strikeout.....dogpiles......chasing a guy around the bases after walk off hit....or worse,.....the whole team stomping around the plate after a walk off HR.

Maybe I'm just old school. Go to You Tube and watch Kendry Morales break his leg celebrating a walk off HR in a meaningless game in May...then watch what Roger Maris or Hank Aaron does when they break Babe Ruth's season and career HR records.....or watch how Barry Bonds reacts to breaking both of those records. I understand how people were pissed off about the big show that the Heat put on after they signed Bosh and LeBron and re-signed Wade last year.....but what they do on the court is more the rule than the exception.
