Glad Lebron is rubbing off on them. My avatar is spot on!

This thread will get ugly. As ugly as "Bosh Spice" crying after an NBA game.

Wade's comment after that game I think just shows how they have no leadership and they are starting to give in to the critics and media.....
I am just enjoying this while it lasts....

Really shocked that Spoelstra would make this public. Things are certainly fragile in Miami right now. We will find out over the next couple weeks if they do indeed have any leadership, whether it's Lebron, Spoelstra or Chalmers someone will need to right the ship.
Stan Van Gundy also had a great quote, as he said, "If you don't want the scrutiny, you don't hold a championship celebration before you've even practiced together."
I love SVG because he certainly isn't scared to speak his mind, and he's exactly the type of coach Miami needs.

They aren't a championship team. Pretty amazing you can have 2 of the top 5 players in the NBA, and 3 of the top 15 and aren't a championship team.
I'll stick with the Spurs and Celtics.

The coach really shouldnt have said anything about it, but I find the meltdown hilarious.

Everyone outside of Miami is eating this up and enjoying every minute of it...when and if they ever do win a ring...it won't be for a while.
Did anyone else see what carmelo and stoudamire were saying to make fun of this.

When the locker room first opened to reporters after the game, Stoudemire and Anthony were bantering and laughing about players on the Miami Heat crying after their loss earlier Sunday to the Chicago Bulls, with Stoudemire fingering Chris Bosh as the watery-eyed one (although Bosh, when asked by reporters in Miami whether he had cried, said he almost had but did not).
Amare Stoudemire scored 10 of his team-high 26 points in the pivotal fourth quarter.
"I heard Chris Bosh was crying tears," Stoudemire said.
"Tears?" Anthony asked.
"Yeah, tears," Stoudemire replied.
"Wait 'til I call him, man," Anthony said. "I'll be like: 'What are you doing?'"

Spoelstra has a no win job right now. If his team is winning then it's all because of james, wade, and bosh. When nobody can hit a clutch shot then it all seems to come back on him. I hope he is getting paid good money and laughs all the way to the bank babysitting these million dollar divas.

I just don't understand why they even have Spo in there in the first place. I mean you have 3 of the top 15 players in the N BA on the same team, coaches would be salivating over that job...and you keep Spo? You don't fuck up an opportunity like this by not having the right coach. People are going to look back at this and say man they wasted that 2011 season with their arrogant decision of having some chump 20 year old coach in there instead of going out and paying a big named coach to actually put together an offense.

Spoelstra's job is to figure out how to prevent his team from blowing huge leads in the second half all the time so it doesn't come down to a game winning shot. He seems to have no clue. People tend to forget he also underachieved the last 2 seasons with Wade and a few decent pieces around him.

Spo is the sacrificial lamb for this season. Riley seems like he knows the team is flawed, and is content to let the Heat sputter while he bides his time. The Heat will probably exit the playoffs in an embarrassing manner and then Riley will have the ammo to send Spoelstra to the Citgo. After he does that, he will either be the hero and return or he will hire Phil Jackson

What's the big deal with the reaction of Bosh.
I'm glad he cares.

LeBron and Wade left Bosh in a hot car for a few hours to go party. Hahaha.

Another display of neglect by the Heat players...Police were called to a Miami-area nightclub late last night to respond to reports that Heat forward Chris Bosh was left alone in a hot car for hours while his teammates LeBron James and Dwyane Wade partied inside, without a thought to their highly-paid sidekick. Experts are now saying that the Heat are likely to lose custody of the vulnerable Bosh, an outcome made more likely by the duo's history of neglecting Bosh and their other teammates.
That's some good stuff. OSN needs to work on their TV show though.Center Zydrunas Ilgauskas gets tangled up in a camera cord during a game against the Bulls and nearly strangles himself because no one was watching him.

I guess Stan Van Jeremy had some funny quotes regarding the Heat.
Basically said that he finds it comical that these guys are upset that they are under the microscope. He said if they didn't want the scrutiny, they shouldn't have had a championship celebration before the season started

Pretty much
“I do chuckle a little bit when they sort of complain about the scrutiny when they get,” Van Gundy said. “My suggestion would be if you don’t want the scrutiny, you don’t hold a championship celebration before you’ve even practiced together. It’s hard to go out yourself and invite that kind of crowd and celebration and attention, and then when things aren’t going well, sort of bemoan the fact that you’re getting that attention. To me, that doesn’t follow.”
