Preparing Heat Fans for Disappointment


Miami Heat supporters shouldn’t be putting all of their eggs in tonight’s Draft Lottery basket.

(But who knows? With D-Wade doing things like buying a church, maybe they’ll get a little help from up above.)

If they get 1st pick they should take rose because according to shaq you can’t win with chris quinn

Right, so Wade suddenly has to learn how to play with the ball not in his hands 24/7? Go with Beasley. Better deal.

Why is a church for sale?

Rob Wells says:
If they get the 1st pick they should get either B-Easy or Rose obviously. its hard to chose. I go with Rose a solid point guard. If it was on pure talent i’sd choose B-easy. The Heat need a solid point and you have that in Rose.

Good question, maio. Maybe there’s just not as much money in churches as say, the 1300s

TAD, I care . The Wade church thingy is pretty remarkable. Happy for the Wade family that Mom recovered. Now, keep Rev. Wright away.

I want to take the opportunity to congratulate the Heat and all the Heat fans on the number one pick.

“And with the #1 pick of the 2008 NBA Draft, the Miami Heat select……..Derrick Rose.”

With the 4th pick in the 2008 NBA draft the Miami heat select DeAndre Jordan (booooooo)

Cheryl says:
“The Heat trade their 4th pick, Haslem, Banks, and Blount to Denver for Carmelo Anthony and Marcus Camby.”

TADOne says:
If anyone could pull that off Cheryl, it would be Pat.

I’m gonna say this one more time so Pat Riley, pay attention. Great young point guards are harder to find and alot more valuable to a franchise rebuilding than a great young Small/Power Forward. Just look at the teams across the board that made and advanced in the playoffs. 90% of them advancing has to do with point guard play.

Miami better be good by the time next season rolls around,I’m moving there and I don’t want to be seeing Mark Blount getting off the bench unless we’re up by 60

cheryl if that happens I’ll uhm I don’t know be just happy for the heat, although wade and anthony don’t seem to be the friends they are said to be. with them and lebron being interviewed I always saw melo as an outsider. And pat riley likes to have power players old school power players so there should be more trades after that

nowadays, a church can be one oh the best business you can have.
wade!
thats vision!

My Heat are getting that #1 pick… Go Heat!

Eboy says:
Once again, I would say the biggest disappointment that will occur this evening is that I won’t be the Heat representive and put on my own show to steal the spotlight away from HOV and the rest of the big ballers.

Plus you realise the tax incentives on running a church? They don’t need to pay rates or rent and any business conducted out of them is tax free…look at the Vatican for crying out loud.

Hursty says:
heat got the 2 pick so thats not the worst i spose and either way they get a good player.

Cheryl says:
Beasley will turn out to be a David West-type player, I think. So, he’s not a bad pick for the Heat. I was just hoping for a point guard.

BETCATS says:
#2 aint sh!t

May.21 at 9:48 am

BETCATS says:
but i think the Bulls will either trade the pick or take Beasley because Kirk Hindrich and Chris Duhon arent garbage
