The Miami Heat
As the year comes to a close and the trees begin to turn, the question people are asking themselves is not whether or not they should wear white after Labor Day, but rather is the Miami Heat going to win the NBA title? Yes, you heard me right. The biggest question this fall has nothing to do with politics or fashion, but rather with basketball. Over the off-season the Miami Heat basketball team put in some serious work and spent some serious money. They managed to positively manipulate their trade negotiations and come out of the trade talks with three superstar athletes. Now if you don't follow sports (you could probably care less about this blog) I will go ahead and inform you on who they have acquired. They managed to acquire superstars: Lebron James, Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade. For those of you reading this that are not sports fans, allow me to put this in to your terms. If the Miami Heat is America, all the other teams in the league would be like Kazakhstan. However, there is one team that could possibly cause them some trouble. The Los Angeles Lakers are the defending NBA title champions for two years running, and many consider them to be them to still be the best team in the league. A majority of Americans feel as though the Heat have too many stars and that they will not be able to play well together. Furthermore, they feel as though the Heat has no supporting cast (no other good players) to help these three monSTARS (yea that’s a Space Jam reference). So again we find ourselves back at the original question. Will the Miami Heat be able to function as a team and win an NBA title; or will they clash for the spotlight and crumble? I guess only time will tell...

I'm not much of a basketball fan, but I have heard a lot about the team with the players traded, sounds like they'll do really good this year and I hope they do!
ReplyDeleteWe will see what the extent of Wade's injury but if Lebron really does turn into a playmaker rather than a scorer and they find somebody who can guard the low post in addition to Bosh scoring in the post they will be unstoppable
