Bosh seems like a pretty good dude. He’s emotional and energetic. He treats the lower 9 on the Heat like people. I love the Heat and LeBron, but LeBo stares daggers into Chalmers. Granted Bosh may be a total dingus in real life, I don’t know, but in all of his interviews he’s a real nice guy. But what do I know, me and Bosh haven’t hung out in a while, going on 26 years now, gosh I miss him.

The Heat cannot become a force without beating the Celtics…..They cannot become great without beating the Lakers………They cannot remain great without eventually beating the Thunder in the next few years…..

NBA has got some serious Karma going on right now…..

The old guard…Celtics…Lakers

The new guard…Heat….Bulls…..Thunder…..Knicks

Seems a shame to waste it on a lockout….

Great one line paragraph, Matt. Perhaps that should have been the titular statement.

I agree that Miami is the less cohesive team and therefore easier to root against…. on offense. Defensively they play have played the best team basketball of all 30 teams this year. Their 1-on-1 defensive is aggressive and when a man gets beat he always has a guy switching behind him followed by another guy switching to the switcher’s guy.

On offensive they obviously rely very heavily on Wade/James/Bosh but they have still shown some flashes of brilliant ball movement and pick & roll execution. Watch the Heat’s final games against the Spurs, Lakers and Celtics to see good execution on offense.

That said, I just wanted to point out that Matt wasn’t calling Boston a public enemy or villain… just the Heat’s personal nemesis.

Wrong…

But let’s add a bit more……

Boston is a team the majority of the country is tired of hearing about…The current edition of the Celtics are living off the laurels of of past glory..

“The Celtics have the team effort…The Celtics have the discipline…The Celtics have the experience….The Road goes through Boston…..Boston this…Boston that…..

For all the smack that has talked about Boston….The current version of the team has won…exatcly 1 title….1…..As in “singular”……one…..(By your own admission…Wade has already equalled that)…..The media reveres this Boston team as if it was the Bulls of the 90′s.

Garnett is a dirty player (real class with the Villanueva situation…and not alot of people in the NBA really respect the guy as a person…good player….piece of sh*t as a person)…..Paul Pierce is a bigger Diva than Lebron and Dwade put together…Rondo is just irritating when he tries to think he’s being tough….The only one that has any class in that orginazation is Rivers and Ray Allen. I’d wager to say that 90% of the country would rather see LeBron win the series over (Smell my *ass and tell me how it tastes Kobe) O’Neal….

Yeah classy organization you have there Boston…

Why would I care what Heat-Celtics means to the Miami Heat? I care what it means to the NBA! I know that it’s going to be a great series with two teams going at it hard.

The Heat are not going fishing b/c they are about to be devoured by the Jaws of doom: the Celtics!

Yeah baby!

From James having the gall to host a freakin’ TV special to announce what team he was selling his services to, to Bosh’s arrogance that so far outstrips his actual talent, the Heat are a team that it is incredibly easy to root against. Wade is the only one of the three that has shown even the slightest bit of humility, which is ironic considering he is the only one to have won a championship before. (Actually, maybe that isn’t ironic.) The other two clearly think themselves better than the game itself.

I’m pumped up for this series. I usually pull for the young blood, but I know the Celtics are eager to school LeBron & Wade once again.
