    Anyone watching the Heat live thing on NBA.com right now?

    Is it just me or are things getting out of hand, presentation-wise?
    "The Decision" ESPN special and now the HEAT showing how a team consisting of 3 big players has won every championship since the 60's, more or less?

    I'm not American, I'm Swedish, so for me, stuff like this is a big too boombastic and, to be fair, a bit rediculous. I feel the same way about huge Hollywood movies where substance is lost in favor of cool FX and visuals.
    Considering this, I might be a bit biased toward stuff like this, but I wanted to know if someone else agrees with me.

    I should say though that I love how NBA games and the NBA playoffs/finals are presented. Having boombastic, huge TV intros and such there is great, coupled with the music. It's just this hoopla that has me laughing at how rediculuous it actually is.

    P.S. I'm not a Lebron *****, I like the guy, so it's please don't bash me for that, it has nothing to do with it.

          Good to know I'm not alone here.

          I'm watching it now. It's more like they've set up a camera in dance club than it is a player introduction.

                lol...smoke, lights, dancing, and keys to the city. This is like a championship parade...crazy. I had to see it to believe it.

                EDIT: did I just hear a "beat LA" chant? Yes I did...Now this might be starting to offend even me...lol.

                    Now here come the BEAT LA chants. They had better worry about Boston first.

                      I just hope TOR and Cleveland fans arent watching this.

                      LOVE the "Beat L.A. chants" though!

                        There's no small irony in that they're interrupting a Lakers Summer League game either.

                        And Beat LA?

                        Seriously, could they be any more pretentious?

                          Pat Riley sitting there like a Don...surreal. I'm sucked in, and I normally hate reality TV.

                            I have not hoped to see one team fail so badly in my entire life and the one thing that could happen to make me pull for LA has happened. This is disgusting. I hope, I really do hope that we have a team in the East that checks these clowns and the bandwagon fans in attendance there.

                              Pat Riley deserves a friggin statue outside the building for pulling this off.
                              As Shaquille O'Neal left the Suns practice court, he yelled out, "Alvin's the coach. We must be the Clippers. And I must be Olowokandi. Nooooo!"
