We should point out that the Heat might end up getting the last laugh here. According to estimates, almost 400,000 fans showed up at Miami's parade while only 200,000 showed up at Baltimore's parade in February.

I'd point out there's more people in Miami, so proportionally it's likely higher in Baltimore. I'm not sure if that 200k includes the number at M&T.

What's the over/under for how many games Oden plays next year? 5?

[SBTarheel]

Just more proof that Greg Oden is a mercenary.

I think the Celtics players were pretty immature and unfair to Ray Allen and owe him an apology. The situations are definitely different though. The Celtics were preparing for one more run, and wanted Allen to join them. He decided to go elsewhere. In the case of Pierce and KG, there was obviously going to be a rebuild coming in Boston. I think the consensus between the players and management was that, hey, we'll put you in the best situation possible, it's time for us to rebuild. They weren't really 'betraying' anyone, like they thought Ray was. 

 

KG is probably my least favorite player in the league, though, so I love Lebron calling him out.

[mweb08]

The Celtics benched Allen and had discussed dealing him multiple times so it was really absurd for KG to call out Ray for leaving.

In complete control last night vs. the Bulls, even with neither James or Wade providing much scoring.

James said to have been working on his dribbling and mid-range game.

 

Beasley has been dealing with an infection in his left arm, and did not play last night.

Obviously the Pacers are a legitimate challenger in the East... but with Chicago losing Rose, and Brooklyn being horrible... Miami can really coast until the ECF. That only helps them. I thought they might have trouble getting through multiple tough playoff series this year, but they can get through one.

Miami needs to get the #1 seed or I think they lose to the Pacers. Indiana is crazy good at home.
