Hell, Im not even a basektball fan and am watching the games. Well just the last 5 minutes anyway as that usually the only interesting part of a Basketball game to me.
I stopped watching about a month ago. the NBA is rigged anyway.
I might believe you if OKC finds a way to come back and win this thing. Miami winning is bad for the league in many ways, but first and foremost it instantly kills their most compelling storyline.
In what way is it bad for the NBA? There are so many bandwagon idiots who have never cared that all of the sudden love the heat. New storyline will be who can unseat this dream team consisting of Hairline, D Grade and their younger friend who annoyingly tags along. Miami was gifted their title in 2006, and although they haven't been gifted this one this is what the NBA wants. And as 2006 proved, the NBA will get their champion at any cost.
The majority of the NBA talk over the last four years or so has been LeBron's quest for a title, now that he has one, he's just not as interesting. People won't root as hard against him in winning subsequent titles and people who aren't necessarily Heat fans but were just rooting for LeBron to get a title won't root as hard for him to get subsequent titles.
They may push the "unseat the Heat" storyline next year, but it really won't matter until the finals next year, if the Heat lose before the finals next season, which they very well may(it's not like they completely breezed through an east without D. Rose/Noah and Dwight Howard this year). "Unseat the Heat" will make for an interesting offseason as teams try to add pieces, but the NBA regular season is too long and too many stars turn it on and off as they see fit. I think the NBA has far and away the largest disparity in quality of product between the regular season and postseason. In any given year I probably watch as many postseason games as I do in the whole of the regular season.

Dual headed RB (speed vs power) of Jyruss Edwards and Centarius Donald
WR Brent Leonard (751 yards)
LB corps should be outstanding this year with Cameron Blakes, Austin Moss (Ark transfer) and Robert Young along with some experienced depth.
Damn football needs to get here. Summer sucks because you know it is just around the corner.

Do they teach math at ULM?
Sorry man, just got a lot of talent.
Right, because no one else in the league has more than 3 players?
Dude, let em go...they aint got much to crow about.

Z I just thought it was humorous that in a thread about your "big three" everyone managed to come up with three, except for two posters, who both happened to be ULM fans and happened to post right after one another.
I mean one of them named five players and the other named seven and I thought it was strange how bluephi listed a couple of linebackers as "2a" and "2b" but listed two running backs collectively as 3.
