    Maybe the fans, not too sure about the media. Especially since Boston haunted him still.

      I think people are confusing where would be better to play and where would be better to vacation.

      Miami is definitely not a better place to play basketball. Come on yall, be real.

        That's a matter of opinion.

          No, no it's not really. Florida in general is a terrible state to professionally play sports unless you're the Tampa Bay Bucs. See Miami's 'Fan-Up' campaign LAST YEAR as further proof.

            So you're talking in terms of fan support?

              Not really. Miami is known as an awful place for sports. The fans there are atrocious.

                I mean, I knew about Marlins fans not showing up, but I figured all the other teams there were ok.

                I'd think if it was one team they supported, it would be the Canes.

                  The Hurricanes are probably supported the best.

                        With LeBron & Wade they damn well should be.

                        Curious what their regular season attendance in years past was before they got the big 3 together last year.

                            I don't think attendance was ever going to be an issue with those 2 down there LOL.

                              What the hell else what would be talking about? The food?

                              Miami's fan base is atrocious. Took 2 of the best players in the world on the same team just to get them in the Top 5. That doesn't even mean that everyone shows up. Most people probably buy season tickets as a novelty just to say they can go whenever. Marlins never sell out and the Dolphins only pack the place when they are good, other wise it's a ghost town.

                              Did you watch the playoff series before the 3 Queens came together, against the Celtics? AAA was like half empty.

                              NY>>>>Miami and it's not even close.

                                You don't say? A team with two of the five best players in the NBA is in the top 5 in attendance? A team with two of the five best players in the NBA should be leading the league in attendance, should sell out every game and have a massive waiting list for season tickets. Miami sports fans are still horrible.
