Mook vs the Miami crybabies


"The Miami Heat are exactly what everyone wanted, losing games," ... "The world is better now because the Heat is losing." ~ Dwyane Wade

After their loss to the Bulls (Which was followed by a loss to the Blazers, giving them 5 straight losses before beating the Lakers last night), Coach Eric Spolestra admitted players were in the locker room crying.

Why he would say that I don’t know.

But Dwyane Wade’s quote confirms it anyway.

Hey look, you guys may not be the biggest jerks in the world. You were just three friends who wanted to play together and work together – and who could blame you for that?
But fans don’t like you.
You egged the nation against you afterwards.
And if you don’t like it now- too bad.

I feel bad for you… but I don’t.

The thing is, if you would have come out right away and said you wanted to play together, people would have loved it. They would have appreciated friends wanting to be together. Instead, you made the free agency period a circus. You led teams & fans on. And took video cameras with you.
You didn’t care about the fan. You showed no humility. You brought these things upon yourself.


If you lose this season, then everyone will forget. And then, after you win next season, everyone will love you again.


As for your team…

·      Who really cares about the regular season
·      3 players don’t make a team, and it is showing
·      Losing so many close games, can’t be a good sign
·      Maybe LeBron really can’t close games and is not a winner

As for crying…
·      Be a man
·      Cry in the playoffs, not the regular season
·      Cry because you win, not because you lose.
·      Is this really the worst thing in the world?

As Tom Hanks is infamously known for saying in "A League of their own" 
"Are you crying?... There's no crying in baseball!"

And it should be that in every sport
Do any of you wish you were playing in Chicago with D Rose & Jokiam Noah? Young, talented, winners… they look tough.
Knicks still need another player or two
Celtics still have to be the favorites
Orlando has the best big man, so they can’t be counted out.
And why does everyone forget about Atlanta? 3 on 3 they’d be about as tough to beat as the Heat. I’d take Joe Johnson, Josh Smith & Al Hoford

Man, why do I even care about the NBA?
