6 point run by the Mavs and now the Heat lead is down to 7. Come on Heat...lets get em.
The refs are calling every little thing against the Heat and almost nothing against the Mavs. This is a bad crew.
I done told ya son.....
Halftime came and so did the call....
Psssst hey ref.....the money is in the locker
I can't see how anyone can like the Heat unless you are from Miami. The Heat are bad for the NBA. Sure, you have the band wagon fans who always pick a winner but what is to stop 3 other superstars from forming another team and playing for, let's say, 5 mill per year so that they could sign other players who don't make a ton off of endorsements. What that means is that there will only be about 3 or 4 good teams. Small market teams could not compete. At that point, you no longer have a league, you only have exhibitions such as the harlem globetrotters. I hope the next collective bargaining agreement does something about forming teams in this manner. The NBA should just go to a hard salary cap so that the OKCs, NOs, and Utahs can continue to compete.

And if the 3 superstars you speak of were playing for the Mavs would you feel the same?
While I agree with what you say it is an unfortunate part of the nature of the beast. Let's see your philosophy applied to say the New York Yankees.
Big cities will always have the draw and money to pay the big stars.
I simply am rooting for the Heat because they are a Florida team and same as Marlins and the Panthers and LASTLY the Dolphins I root for my home state teams.
