    People say that the heat (big 3) are the "bad guys" some say that they are "classless" and "talkers" that's what I'm referring to.

    Please give examples of Miami being classless, being jerks, trash talking, ect...

    Other than the normal amount of trash talking that all nba teams take part in, they pretty much just play ball. Even against Boston when Rondo was calling them out at halftime and Pierce is yelling crap that he can't backup, saying that LeBron "can't hold me" or even KG with his usual BS. They still kept their mouths shut and took care of business on the court.

    I don't know why I'm rehashing this, but off the top of my head:

    Chosen One tattoo
    'King James' nickname
    Bailing on Cleveland
    No city / local pride - mercenary status
    Heat welcoming party theatrics
    "not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six...."
    Wade "we're arguably the best trio to ever play the game"
    Dancing during games
    Skipping the handshake line at the end of a series
    The Decision on ESPN


    I'm sure they're nice big teddy bears on weekends, but can you see why people enjoy watching them lose? One word: Entitlement. That's why people don't like them.

    They were actually classless and arrogant last year. The Heat intro party where they rose out of the floor, Lebron saying "it's going to be easy", Wade being a Jerk pretty much every game, Lebron/Wade with the fake cough mocking Dirk.

    They learned their lesson and have been much more class this season. If you think about it, when Lebron said "it's going to be easy" .... well for the most part it was easy for them up until the Dallas series. They beat both boston and chicago last year 4-1. They slept walked to the finals then they went up 1-0 on Dallas and had a huge lead in game 2 then Dirk and Jason Terry got super hot and went crazy. I think that was the best thing that could have happened to the heat.

    Now they know it won't be that easy and they have been a bit humbled. Wade is still a jerk sometimes but James has been all class this season and that isn't debatable. I think working with hakeem in the offseason really helped him.

    Chosen One tattoo- Seriously?? Its a tattoo!

    'King James' nickname- Nickname came from SI as did "The Chosen One"

    Bailing on Cleveland- Free agents leave EVERY year, and Cleveland was doing nothing to help him. double standard

    No city / local pride - mercenary status- Have you ever moved before? If so then you have no pride??

    Heat welcoming party theatrics- They shouldnt have done it I admit.

    "not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six...."- He shouldnt have said that but the whole thing was overblown AND he apologized... get over it.

    Wade "we're arguably the best trio to ever play the game"- He's trying to pump up the fans

    Dancing during games- So now basketball can't be fun?? Another double standard, other players do the same things and nobody says anything

    Skipping the handshake line at the end of a series- Is that worse then Rondo and KG leaving the court before the game is even over after game 7? Or Pierce leaving 2 minutes before the game is over in game one of the earlier games (can't remember which one it was) Another double standard. If LeBron wouldve done these things then it would be a headline, but KG and Rondo do it and nobody says anything?? I know things aren't always fair, but come on... That just makes you stupid!

    The Decision on ESPN- He over did it but it was for a good cause and like I said he apologized for the way he handled things.
