Sorry for the delay between articles guys, haven't really had a lot of time recently.
As you can see from my title, the topic for today is the Miami heat.
While they do get a lot of hate, I think this hate is actually unreasonable, for a few reasons.
Before I get to the reasons though, I will quickly brush over two things that I don't like about the heat: Firstly, their bandwagon fans, ie people who didn't start supporting them until Lebron. I cannot stand them, and worse, I cannot stand the ones who claim not to be band wagoners. Secondly, I cannot stand how they suck all the talent out of the league. Seriously? teams like the Heat and the Lakers ruin the league. The heat suck talent away from teams like Cleveland and by taking Howard, the Lakers not only killed themselves, but the Magic as well. Congratulations Lakers management.
But onto the good stuff about the Heat and why the hate they get is unreasonable:
So firstly, they do well. No matter what way you look at it, the Heat can win games, and in a very entertaining matter. Ultimately this means that more people watch the league, and therefore the league gets more money from TV deals, merchandise etc.
Secondly, they are downright entertaining. It never gets old to see Lebron and Dwayne complete an alley oop to perfection, and to be quite frank, its fun watching them spank teams like the magic (although that sort of contradicts what I said earlier).
But, people seem to disregard these aspects of the Heat, and just label them as Lebron stealers that have a bandwagon fan base.
Again, I think this is wrong, because no matter what way you look at it, they perform well, and make the league entertaining.
Also, I think they do actually give a good platform for Lebron. He is probabaly one of the most talented athletes the NBA will ever see, and if he can win a few more championships will probably surpass Jordan as the greatest of all time. Having Bosh and Wade there, only makes Lebron look better, and only furthers his chances of becoming a player to remember for all time.
And just one last thing, I think the key to Lebron's success is his build. Being incredibly muscular and being able to knock other players out of the way, really makes it easy for him to be a dominant small forward, and I believe that this will allow him to redefine what a small forward looks like and does.
That is all, have a great day anyone or everyone who is reading.....I hope someones reading this :)
