Well a lot of people like teams that do well.
I know I like to watch the Celtics now but wouldn't be caught dead watching them last year. I guess I am a "fan." I mean, KG, Pierce, and RayAllen - who wouldn't be a little interested?
The only difference here is that I'm just a fan of good players and good basketball. If people would just admit that instead of reppin' these teamslike they do, things would be a lot less annoying.

HEAT fans, actually most Florida sports fans are drive by night, bandwagoners with the least loyalty out of any state in the country not named Atlanta.

Hi. I'm still here, still repping my team(s) consistently and loyally...just in the middle of law school finals right now, which is why my posting has beenso sporadic lately. Just finished a three hour monster yesterday after about a week's worth of 17-hour days studying
And I've still got two more.
I actually got to watch a little bit of last night's game, and it'sfrustrating to again see a terrible 4th quarter defensive effort. Can't seem to get both phases of the game going well together.
Anyhow, it's kinda unfortunate that Miami's reputation as being a poor sports town results in people pigeonholing all its fans together; not all of usonly go out and buy the gear and watch/show up to games when the teams are doing well. Matter of fact, I just bought my godson some Dolphins gear (yes, those0-for the season Dolphins). I'm looking to buy myself a new car in the next month or two, and when I do I'll be scooping up a new Heat license plate.And I'm scouring ebay for a jersey to memorialize one of my favorite players coming up through high school and college, Mr. Sean Taylor: and it'll be aCanes jersey as soon as I can find one for less than $300 bucks. So I'm definitely still here and repping my teams. Hell, I was even THISclose to buying amulti-game pack from the Marlins, and then they went and traded the two faces of the franchise for a pack of gum, a bag of peanuts, and a bunch of used rollsof toilet paper. So I'm going on stike against Loria and Sampson; single-game ticket purchases for me this year. I'll be there opening day though,albeit with a sign emphatically expressing my disdain with this ownership group.
Here's another question though: where are all the Team Nuggets cats? I swear they were popping like gremlins when AI got traded out there, talking abouthow they were a favorite to win the 'chip and all. I think I see like 4-5 around now.
Thanks for showing some love (pause).

sig check
i try to be around, but with school, hs bball, & everything else, i don't have a whole lot of time.
im guessing most of the heat "fans" that were around a few years ago probably jumped off ship since we're not doing all that well right nowbecause thats how the city of miami is in general with their sports teams (
),but theres about 8 of us still around here.

The same place all these Celtics "fans" were last year.
I was here.
Yeah, but once the heat realized they were older than dirt, they probably stopped caring.

Well i'm new to NT, but i rep pretty much all Miami teams including the Hurricanes, and wow the Miami Heat are playing TERRIBLE. They continually fallapart in the 4th quarter and it just seems there is no chemistry on the floor. We gotta play better on the Defense, feed the ball to Shaq more and havesomebody else step up other than Wade. He had 33 points last night and still isnt completely healthy. Were gonna kill the guy if other people dont do somethingon their end! On top of that that my Dolphins can't win a game, but at least my school won their first game in 24 attempts! (FIU) lol. Well, at leasttonight i get to go watch the Mens Miami Hurricanes basketball team against FIU. They are gonna retire Raja Bell's Number tonight. UM at least hasn'tlost a game! and they shall be moving closer to cracking the Top 25 after they beat my school. (I'm a UM fan attending FIU). And the Marlins aren'tgoing anywhere fast. Horrible time to be a Miami fan, but i have no shame. I'm gonna rep every team here to the fullest no matter what happens. Oh letsgive it up to Northwestern Highschool aka Northwestern Canes for winning last night 19-14. On the way to the title game and back to back state titles

Where are the T-Wolves fans?
Anyway, my team sucks, am I supposed to go around bragging about it. . Before the season started I said that I hope we suck this year, and get a top 5 pick.Maybe that's not being a true fan, but in 2007, that's how the game goes.
A backcourt of D-Rose and D-Wade would be sick. Chi-Town connection baby. Add D-Wright/MC Ricky D/Daequan the Chef at the 3, U-God at the 4, and Shaq-Fu at the5, and we're back in business.

What. Are. You. Talking. About?
So you think one "D-Rose" is going to make the difference between what you see today and being "back in business"? And Cook at the 3?
Now I know why we Heat fans get bashed on.

Yeah, I believe a future all star point guard can make a major difference.
Ok, Cook plays the 2, I stand corrected, he played the 3 at OSU, so I just assumed that what he was playing in the League.
