Why the NBA is in Trouble

Besides the refs rigging the NBA and flopping, these superteams is getting out of hand. Lebron took the easy route it's not the same his legacy and championship is tainted. He wasn't good enough to win it by himself even making promises that he will win a championship for Cleveland so he took the easy route and join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. Lebron James will never lead a team to a championship. You would never see Micheal Jordan say oh hey i should play with Magic and Larry because i want to win championships just takes the competiton away. Lebron believed in the notion of you if you can't beat em join em and it is simply ruining the NBA.

Knicks stink more than your moms vag.

Stern finally got his championship.

Heat won cause they dominated the paint and 3pt range.

God, shut up. Just go away now, please. Heat won and they did so by a large margin. Get over it.

Dont be generous i want you to troll me. I embrace it lol.

I honestly thought OKC would take this series. I've had doubts about Miami because Lebron and Wade never seemed to show up when they needed to. Bottom line is that the Heat demolished all of my doubt. They DOMINATED OKC. They won because they are the best.

welp...lebron james desereved the mvp afterall..

i knew he was the best player but damn...he embarrassed OKC. made westbrook look like an idiot...gimped harden...and shut the lights off in durant.

Way to show respect where it is due. You are a gentleman and a scholar!

"Rigging the series"? Give me a break.

The heading should be 'Why the NBA is in Trouble'. With the NBA allowing Star players to form All Star teams the league will basically have 5 Great teams... and the rest will blow. The fallout will be fans not caring and not supporting their NBA team anymore. You can't argue Lebron not being the best player anymore and now he's got his ring.... but everyone I talk to is not impressed and have lost interest in the NBA with the Star players joining forces. It's not natural or good for the sport. If he did this with the Cavs he's a legend... but with the Heat it's really a who gives a crap Championship. It's hollow... and it makes the NBA feel like a phony league how star players can join forces now.

The NFL and even the NHL to a degree are doing well with fans because there is total PARITY in the leagues... and year to year every team can compete. What the NBA is allowing with the All Star FA's joining up(or players like Melo forcing a trade to where he wants to go) is a recipe for disaster for the NBA. There's already too many teams struggling financially and it's going to get worse without parity in the league.

So Jordans championships are hollow? I mean afterall, he played with Pippen, Grant and Kerr.

Are Magic's championships crap? He played with Worthy and Kareem.

Who the hell wants to play with Antwan Jameson and Mo williams?

It wasn't rigged. Look at the way Miami's role players showed up. i cringed evertime Mario drove to the basket because he attacked it with a vengeance. They outplayed the Thunder hands down. Even if there was a conspiracy invovled you can't deny that the Heat flat out bull dozed OKC. If the Thunder had been playing basketball the way they know how to play it they would've won.

There is a HUGE difference between a team like Jordan's finally putting it all together to win... compared to leaving a team to form an all star team like the Heat did. It just makes the sport a joke and fans have lost interest in the NBA in droves. Like I said before the NFL is so good because of parity. People just won't care or watch the NBA when only 5 teams are good in the league. So when the Heat win it's really a who gives a crap type Championship. Same with a team like the Yankees who buy an all star for every position basically. The only time MLB or the NBA gets interesting is if there's an underdog making a run at a Championship. Sorry... but nobody cares when teams like the Yankees or Heat win anything because they did it exploiting the system. A sport is only good when the playing field is level. Lebron is a great player.... but he'll always be a chump for having to form a super group to get his ring. I watched maybe 5 minutes of the Finals combined. I've totally lost interest in the NBA.ohjtbehaaave

It has some wondering if the NBA will draw as much attention next year. People will always tune in to see the Heat win or lose because of the hype they can generate each year, but it's possible more people were just interested in seeing if LeBron would ever win a ring. Now that he has, the hype for the team could be lessened a bit, unless LeBron is going for his 6th/7th ring to match-up with Jordan. It'll be interesting to see.

It's people like you how we can't just enjoy a victory without all the means to justify it coming up. If the Thunder had won, you would be satisfied and say good job. Since the Heat won, you look for any means to degrade it.juden41

I mean if you're a Heat fan I can understand not caring how the team wins.... but overall my point is it's bad for the NBA and will probably eventually kill the league. Without parity and rules in place to ensure parity, the NBA is in trouble. All these players looking to form these 'Big 3" type All Star teams will be the reason the NBA becomes irrelevant. Because 80% of the rest of the teams will stink... the fans won't care... or show up for games... meaning more bankrupt teams... meaning no more NBA.

Once again... the NFL is so popular because of parity and every team can compete from year to year. Who's going to compete with the Heat in the East the next few years? Makes next season and the next and next pretty much a who cares season really. It's already a no brainer the Heat are in the Finals going forward... and that's not good for any sport when you know that going in.

Besides the refs rigging the NBA and flopping, these superteams is getting out of hand. Lebron took the easy route it's not the same his legacy and championship is tainted. He wasn't good enough to win it by himself even making promises that he will win a championship for Cleveland so he took the easy route and join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh. Lebron James will never lead a team to a championship. You would never see Micheal Jordan say oh hey i should play with Magic and Larry because i just want to win championship and i don't have to beat them simply just takes the competiton away. Lebron believed in the notion of you if you can't beat em join em and it is simply ruining the NBA.

Jordan had Pippen. Magic had James Worthy and Kareem. Bird had Mchale, Parish and Dennis johnson. All those Celtics teams in the 60's were stacked as hell too. Lebron never had another superstar player on his team outside of a very old past his prime Shaq. Stupid Cleveland wouldn't trade JJ Hickson and draft picks for Amare because they thought JJ Hickson was going to be a superstar and right now he is no longer on the Cavs team anymore.

I'm happy Lebron won one because of people like you.

And one last thing. At least he didn't held his team hostage unlike Chris Paul, Dwight Howard and Carmelo.

Really? Did you see the missed call at the end of game 2 plus the thunder any time they were near a guy would get a foul. But Lebron and the heat shove push and take 4 steps with the ball it's amazing! Then game 3 and 4 OKC also got an unfair whistle. Honestly the Heat won 1 game and that was 5. Don't tell me the NBA isn't rigged. They got caught doing it a couple years ago and if you watch those replays with the games todays they sure look a lot a likeXenogegars_Rocks

Also if the NBA was rigged in the series they would have not allowed the Heat to win because people watch to see Lebron fail more than anything. Now that Lebron won one the ratings will probably decrease.
