Reasons I don’t want the Heat to win and thus basically the only reason I’m interested in the Playoffs still:
1. I live in Ohio. I saw first hand how his leaving devastated this state’s fans.
2. The decision, but even worse, the absolute WWE event after with trash talking.
3. Consistent dumb crap they say and do (Making fun of a sick Dirk etc.).
4. One of the worst flopping teams in the league, lead by their big three, and they get most of the calls.
5. Dwyane Wade (dislocating Rondo’s arm, constantly barking at authority figures, on twitter scoffs at players that stay because of “loyalty”).
6. LeBron’s taking the easy way out by trying to stack the deck rather than joining one other good/great player with a great supporting cast. It cheapens the value of a championship to me as if he were collecting coins or something.
A. Watching the Mavs win last year was much more fulfilling to me because almost all of those players tried their whole careers on the teams they were on to win a championship rather than building a super team.
7. Basic idea of competition: from the earliest age on the playground you never put the two best players on the same team. They are on separate teams and compete against each other.
I understand he could have gone wherever he wants, and people should not dislike him because he has that right, but why in the hell would I like his team? Are there strong arguments to like his team besides he’s the best talent in the world (bandwagon argument). I respect his game for sure, but that’s where it ends for me. Go rest of the NBA except the Heat!
