I can’t wait for the NBA season to finally begin. Most importantly, I can’t wait for the Miami Heat’s home opener against the rebuilding Memphis Grizzlies. After that, I’ll have two words for the national media!
STOP IT!
The disrespect shown to the Miami Heat Nation by the national media is just uncalled for. Just about no one celebrated the team’s acquisition of Jimmy Butler, nor did they celebrate how team president Pat Riley got it done.
He essentially traded a second-round pick in Josh Richardson and a headache in Hassan Whiteside, for a player that was just named to the All-NBA 3rd team, before he was traded to a team where he was forced to share the limelight with two other All-Stars in Philadelphia.
