If The Heat Don't Win The Championship, It'll Be The Biggest Flop In NBA History

But since they won last year I think people will forgive them if they don't win this year. But as I watch the Heat, Wade is slowing down it seems by the day. He is not Flash anymore. I'd say the window of winning titles is actually a lot close to closing than we think for the Heat. Unless Pat Riley gets some really good young players soon.
Biggest flop in NBA history. hum.... I'd say the 2003-2004 Lakers, Maybe the 1993-1994 New York Knicks, especially since they haven't won an NBA title since the 70's, I think the 1995-1996 Orlando Magic was pretty disappointing because everyone thought it was Shaq and Penny's year, 2007-2008 Cleveland Cavaliers has to be up there, 1968-1969 Los Angeles Lakers are about even with the 2003-2004 Lakers. So from that list, pick 'em. When I look at the history, the 1970's didn't have any of those big loaded squad. Maybe because the whole ABA thing and expansion. But the 70's didn't have the big loaded rosters like the 60's, 80's, 90's and 2000's. And the 80's, those big name teams always seemed to find a way to win.

I don't know, the 1969 Lakers were suppose to win with Wilt, the 1994 Knicks were finally suppose to win with Jordan out the league, the 1996 Magic were getting all the hype and people thought at the beginning of the year that the Bulls couldn't keep up, but once the Bulls won 72 wins then expectations changed, 2008 Cavs had all those LeBron commercials and then the MVPuppets, it was a mess.

EVERYONE was talking about the new look lakers.
them niggas looked tired before the season started.

injuries and not enough time to build chemistry is why were not the biggest flop. no one truly thought we'd win the championship in the first season without a doubt like everyone's currently sayin bout miami.

not true man you can go to damn near any sports site and run that clock back to last fall...cats just KNEW they were going to at least take their division, to watch them struggle to make the playoffs was like a bad soap opera...just like cats KNEW miami was gonna win their first year together i wasnt surprised at all they didnt...but yeah man the lakers thought they had the new dynasty set then they fucked up their karma when they fucked with the zen master...
just the way they handled that situation with phil jackson was one of the biggest basketball flops of all time in my opinion.

yea, but like i said, it wasnt championship or bust, considering it was our first year with everyone playing together..and more importantly, we only played 7 games with the starting lineup that included all 4 stars. the injuries were up there with any other laker season in laker histroy....thats what makes it not comparable in terms of busts.
i agree with letting phil walk bein one of the more disgraceful decisions in laker management history, tho.

no seriously man, that shit they did with phil was one of the dumbest descisions IN BASKETBALL HISTORY. i dont think ive ever watched a legendary team melt from the inside out like that.
from the death of jim buss to kobes achilles to dwight/nash almost being a non factor, the injuries then the way they just let one of the best coaches of any sport EVER slip through there fingers like that...fuck.
