Miami doesn't deserve Lebron. They don't deserve Chris Bosh or Dwyane. You don't fricking boo your team in the finals.

yea cause you were a kid. you always think back to the good sports moments of your team. it's just weird when adults become "diehard" fans just because the team is good. there's no reason other than wanting to watch winners.

it's probably the kids in school who never got first place in anything or won anything. probably trying to live vicariously through their wins.

sad, really

@darrenrovell: Heat have worst back to back losses in NBA Finals since the 1977 76ers, who lost to Portland by 22 & 32 in Games 3 & 4 in 1977

Great message to send. You'd think after last year you know comebacks can happen. You are watching some of the best players in the league and you are giving up on them. If they don't get support form the fans they who will support them. You see this shite is why everyone hates you heat fans, you self centered arrogant fricks. At least when the Grizz destroyed us last year, EVERYONE IN CHESAPEAKE was on their fricking feet giving KD and company a standing ovation for a job well done. We don't know the sacrifice that all of these players go through in order to put on a show. The least you can do is sit your arse in that fricking seat and cheer them on. It doesn't matter if you're cheering for a college team, an NBA team, or a high school team, you stay until the end if you are a legit fan, through thick and thin you stick with your team, if you really are a Heat fan for as long as you say you are, the. You should already know this, right?

Maybe I was being harsh in my post. It's just that it's one thing to lose on your home floor, but when a home team shows zero passion with something on the line that is real tough for anyone to watch no matter how much of a fan they are. Would you at least acknowledge that? I of course would credit fans who are willing to sit through losses, especially when their team actually tries to compete with something on the line.

Funny how we could arguably be watching Pacers vs Thunder if not for the Kawhi Leonard trade

typical excuses. they aren't dominating and not "hustingly" so you turn on them.

Not a fan of booing your own team. Anytime I see it, I think trashy.

I mean they'd have Paul George still, so he might be elsewhere for all we know.

What's the argument for Bird over lebron?

I don't think you logically make that one.

Time for Lebron to opt out, this team just isn't very good anymore. They just have the luxury of playing in that awful eastern conference. Lebron would look amazing in purple and gold

That pick almost belonged to the Grizzlies: LINK

quote:

Ronald Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports that the two teams agreed on the trade, but the Pacers wanted to make it a three-way deal to help them financially. The New Orleans Hornets were recruited to make that happen, but backed out at the last minute. Desperate to make things happen, the Grizzlies and Pacers recruited a different third team, but by the time the three squads got on the call, it was 3:01 and too late. The Hornets were likely to receive Brandon Rush from the Pacers, according to Mike Wells of the Indy Star.


Thanks assholes

He might have an argument if Bird had a longer career.

LeBron has a top 5 SG in the league, an all-star PF/C, a future-HOF 3pt shooter that still plays exceptionally well for his age, and a top 2 player in himself on the team. 3 of the 4 have been to 4 straight final appearances.

If that isn't an 'elite' team, what is?
