Miami Heat Streak - Page 2

icehog3 · 03-26-2013, 10:53 PM

The Cavaliers almost beat them....they are not unbeatable, no team is.

I love the "they bought the championship" discussion.
If a team has money and wants to spend it for the best players, what's wrong with that? The ones that don't are generally not very successful. That is just the nature if the beast.
This argument reminds me of a motto to live by:
"It's not wether you win or lose, it's how you played the game".
That was said by the loser. The winner was celebrating.

Winning teams will always be hated by masses outside the market they play in.
Add the Heat to:
NY Yankees
Chicago Bulls
LA Lakers
Boston Celtics
New England Patriots
And the list goes on.

As Tom said, any team can beat them on the right night, under the right situation. This record is by far not a done deal but as a South Florida resident, sure is fun to watch.

Agreed. Add the dodgers to that list too. They have the money and are now spending it

Ron...that doesn't always work. Take my Mets for example...the spend tons of money...just not wisely.

No doubt doesn't always work.
Look at the top three spenders in baseball last year (Yankees, Phillies and Boston).
However, while spending a lot doesn't guarantee wins, definitely NOT spending it has a higher probability of losing.

I think the problem is... well most people just hate Lebron

Hell I was born in Miami Beach and grew up / lived in Florida till I was 17 and I still can't even pretend to like them.

(go celtics *cough*)

I actually see alot of people turning the corner on LeBron now. You gotta respect the guy. He is just a marvel of modern athletics.

Not if you are from Cleveland.

Blueface · 03-27-2013, 07:45 PM

At this moment, looks like Chicago is on a mission.

Heat are a second half team. Let's see if Chicago can shut them down in the second half.

I am sure a 16 game streak in the playoffs would be even more satisfying for you, Carlos.
