Miami Meltdown

Lately, The Miami Heat have been in a serous funk after losing four games in a row. First, the Heat blew a 24 point lead to lose to the Orlando Magic at home, then lose to the New York Knicks will newly acquired stars Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups. On Friday, the Heat were murdered by the San Antonio Spurs (125-95), and the icing was put on the cake as the Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls came to town and ripped their hearts out, 87-86. After the game, Miami's big 3 of LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Christina, I mean Chris Bosh, were all crying. Now, they have become an even bigger punchline for other players, reporters and fans all across the country. There are even headlines that read "It's Crying Time". This is pure irony coming from a team that had the audacity to have a live press conference celebrating their free agent pickups of James and Bosh to makeup the 3 Muskateers, or as I call them "The 3 Stooges". They were celebrating prematurely as if they had won the championship, even though they had not even gone through training camp yet. Everything about that press conference, to the interview itself was classless, distasteful and downright immature coming from the entire Heat organization, from the players to even Pat Riley himself. I have all of the respect in the world for Riley, but he was the one that was responsible for luring in James and Bosh, and he never said a word during this entire fiasco, so part of the blame is on him. During the interview, the reporters talked to LeBron about how he was coming to bring a championship and egged him on by saying that he might bring one home and LeBron goes on to say not just one, but 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and even over 7. I believe that as a player, you do not blow your horn that way, because I believe that is mainly for the fans to do. However, you as a player are supposed to perform at a high enough level to back up what the fans are saying. I expect a fan to run their mouth off about how many championships they want their team to win, but not a player. Players should be more professional and respecful in their response, and I believe that everyone was completely caught up in the moment. Big Mistake!! Now, I believe that it has come back to bite them even harder, because they are crying just as bad as they were celebrating, because during the summer, they walked around as if THEY were the champions, but if my memory serves me correctly, the Champions were a team in Los Angeles wearing Purple and Gold with a guy named Kobe Bryant, who now has FIVE RINGS!!! I repeat FIVE!!! Which means that his entire hand is covered! Which also means, that he has more than all three of those guys have combined. Wade has 1 ring, while LeBron and Chris Bosh each have zero! Even Kobe was not as out of control about his win as these goons were. After the loss to Chicago, Chris Bosh justified the reason why I call him such names as "Christina" and "Bosh Spice". The guy reminds me of the kid in school that wants to desperately fit in, so instead of being himself and not kissing up to anyone and being true to himself, he follows the crowd of "popular" kids, the guys who like to ride motorcycles, go out with the best girls, and who are stars in varsity football or basketball. LeBron and D-Wade are those same "popular" kids. Bosh does everything he can to prove that he is "tough" but he just does not have it in him. It is like trying to imagine Will Smith playing Tony Montana, it does not work. Kevin Durant saw right through him as well. The other night, Bosh shot 1-for-8, which is horrific. He has been eaten alive on the boards by more established rebounders, and he is a world class defensive liability. LeBrick James has infected Dwyane Wade with the un-clutch virus, because each of them has missed major shots to tie or to win the game. LeBron has thrown up so many bricks, that he could have single handedly built the Dallas Cowboys New Stadium, which is one reason why I call him "LeBrick". His three point shooting is horrendous and if the fate of the world was on the line, he would be one of my last options for the earth saving shot. He has even said himself that he does not have that killer instinct. His crying also further solidified the name "Queen James". As Tom Hanks said "There is no crying in baseball!". Well I say "There is no crying in basketball!".
