Not to the extent people are about lebron, but people have been saying trash about Dirk being a choker and not being able to be the best player on a championship team, and underrating him for years.

I like Dirk, Kidd, and Cuban, and I'll never get tired of watching Shawn Marion shoot the basketball, but I don't like Terry, I can't stand Barea, and I don't care for Tyson Chandler. I didn't like Peja in his Sacto days, but it's been so long since he's been relevant that he doesn't really bother me anymore. I like Lebron and Wade, but don't care for Bosh. Nobody else on the team really registers with me. For me, I just don't want the Heat to win this year. I want teams to get beat before they win. I just like that storyline more. So until the Heat lose, I can't root for them. If they win this year, I'll root against them again next year. But if they somehow lost this year (and handled it graciously) I could see myself rooting for them next year (except if it should come down to them or the Lakers).

That's, uh, not the same thing.The fun part of this is that now Dwight Howard can go to Chicago and Chris Paul can go to NY and the conversation would be "they have to team up to compete with Miami" and Miami would still be the villain.

Being a Wade fan I could swear that those bad records against those teams and that silly 2-19 in clutch shooting situations was the equivalent of the team getting assassinated in the regular season. No one would shut up about it. Hopefully Wade/Lebron and the rest of the heat shut up everyone in this series.Orlando will never trade Howard to the Bulls, if they do trade him he is going out west.
