The Heat have officially blown it.

[NUMBERICA]

Tonight is a win for basketball and the culture of the league.

This thread will be moved, but let's let this discussion have front page.

I feel bad for their hardcore fans because we have been there and suffered the same thing. But good for Dirk and company.

I dunno. I think this win for the Mavs helps to influence the Jazz's direction. The Jazz need a star player but a really good and deep bench can make up for the lack of second all-nba player.

The Mavs also had two great rim defending centers.

The Jazz had never won a title. The Heat just won one 5 years ago. Big difference, no sympathy from me.

Probably the first time since the '94 Rockets and '90 Pistons a team won the title with 1 superstar surrounded by a bunch of role players.

No sympathy for a 7 or 8 year old kid who really never celebrated their other title? Give me a break.

Me too. Both of them.

Then send them a care package. It's the NBA and they're just fans. No sympathy from me.

I was pulling for the west. Though I do have to admit I was pulling for the Mavs, more than any other reason, so I don't have to listen to the media slobberfest debating the DYNASTY. That would wreck talk radio for me.

Miami is easy to root against, but I rooted for the Mavs because of the way they play. You need stars, but teams win, and that's why the Mavs are the best team on Earth right now.

 

[Shad]

I'm just glad the bulls didn't win.

That's because you are a douche.
