Only Cavs, Knicks, Nets, Lakers, and Bulls fans are pissed about this. I doubt Milwuakee and Memphis give two [expletive]s about this team, they will probably cheer them on, like road teams cheer them most of the time.

Exactly what I thought The mixture of Miami being a bad sports town, and the fact that we already had Bosh and Wade is why everyone is hating. Even ESPN is hating, and they usually ride good teams. If he went to NY, there would be a 3 day special on the history of Knicks basketball and how Lebron brings them back to the glory days, same goes for the Bulls.

Well, im an idiot, disregard my post. Not really good with salaries

Well he makes about the same amount, nothing he can't deal with. He took a big paycut, but I don't get why they all didn't sign for the same as Wade.

Wade did it so we enough for Haslem, they are good friends and he wants him back. He also makes money off the court, so it doesn't matter. Even with the paycut Lebron took, he still makes more than he would have made in CLE at the max ,this is due to no state income tax.

Raja Bell saids he wants to play here, and he played at FIU, so he knows the area.

Cause they didn't want Amare...and now they are crying about it.

Yea, it gets the NBA more publicity. You really think all the Yankees fans around the world were life long fans? Nope, same with the Red Sox. Their fans are people that watched other sports, and then those teams had success and they decided, hey its time. Same thing with Lakers and Celtics fans, most of them are due to the franchises success and stacked teams back in the day.

That "party" was to pump up the Heat fans. All the other things said that might sound cocky is a result of all the haters out there, and the hate on Lebron. So you can talk [expletive] to these guys, but they aren't allowed to dish it back? Noah said we were hollywood, so Lebron and Wade shut him up, Gilbert talked [expletive] to Lebron, so Lebron called him a bad owner and said it hurts the Cavs image, people say they can't win, so Lebron promised over 7 rings. Wade and Lebron said they can't be guarded, and its probably true anyways. I love what they did, they showed they are ready to win, they know everyone hates them, and they don't care. I expect them to go out there and embarrass every team they play because they want to win, and they want to silence the haters. If anything this helps the NBA, the Heat will sell out every game, home and away. It brings attention to the NBA because just like everyone liked the Yankees cause they were stacked, fans from other sports will take interest to this team. Also, the NBA is getting media coverage on national news, so its helping htem more than anything.

Lebron likes wrestling, and its all over youtube. I am sure they already got the idea. If people are gonna hate on them, use the song of the most loved hated group, if that makes any sense. I already got the idea, strobe lights all over the place, make it like a black and white mood, play the song, crowd goes wild, and they are the biggest bad asses in the NBA.

Can it include Wade? Hes still a boss after all this.

I laughed when he said "Size matters, but its the thickness and the width they want"..it had nothing to do with basketball but it was funny as hell.

This should be the intro song during the lineups, I am feeling it, and it fits the image people have of them.

Funny [expletive], and its all true. Funny stuff starts at about 1:10 just incase you think its a history lesson.

Extremely mad.

Thats a stupid picture It took Jordan 7 seasons to win his first, Wade already got his like Kobe got some. They have yet to play a game together.

Nope. We have Wade, Bosh, and LeBron. I expect other cities to be jealous. http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/6688/umadanimation.gif

Even if its fake support, its better than being a Knicks fan right now.

haha thats sick....

How is that pathetic? It was planned in one day, and they sold out the arena...people were outside.

http://www.nba.com/raptors/news/raptors_colangelo_070910.html Very classy. Gilbert should take some lessons

For sure. Riley said good news is coming on UD early next week, and Wade said in the press conference that he wants him back.

Before this gets out of hand. Sorry Lakers fans for generalizing..I just felt you guys were doing to us what you guys hate thats done to you.

[expletive] lebron james...i'm guessing.
