I don’t care about the NBA anymore and I haven’t in over a decade. I don’t care where LeBron James plays, although I was just interested enough to kind of hope he decided to stay in Cleveland. As for the Miami Heat, I can’t take the organization seriously. ‘Heat’ is not a name for a team. It’s not even plural. ‘What do you do for a living?’ ‘I’m a Heat.’ It’s ridiculous, and the same goes for the Orlando Magic. Stupid, stupid name. Here’s an idea. How about a team called the San Diego Bird. They even have a ready mascot.
In any case, maybe all the hype has annoyed me just enough to get interested in the NBA again. When the playoffs roll around, I might just tune in…to root against the Miami Heat.
