Listening to all the frustrated heat fans cry and moan about their inability to beat boston. They've called KG a dirty player, Rondo a pest, and just taking shots at our entire team.

The heat are soft, they know it, and more importantly we know it. I can't wait until we get entirely healthy, then we can really pour it on. Lebrick James choking on the FT line again, then him and wade making excuses after they lost. They still want to use the chemistry card when it comes to us, but when they're killing every other team the word never comes up. I can't stand Lebron James and im glad were able to make his life miserable.

They think Wade is going to suddenly turn it on against boston when the playoffs come, please. If any of their big 3 are off, its a wrap. They dont have the physical or mental toughness to deal with us throughout a 7 game series.

BTW, i was listening to Mike Wallace of ESPN on the radio down here and he said James Posey was on the market.

GO CELTICS!!!

Miami Fan in Boston...I thought that was describing me.  ;) I've been one since 86. Try to catch as many games in the Garden as I can, and was at both of our home victories over the Heat. Love it!

People don't realize how annoying the sports "fans" are down here. They won't watch a second of a game when their team is down, but get a couple of signings and they act like they're true die hards that have been following the team since it's expansion. Look no further than the playoffs for example. A bunch of empty seats and fans showing up mid-way through the first. However, during the "Big 3" (I hate that term) pep rally it was filled to capacity. Stay loyal!

I went to a Celtics/Heat game back in the early 90's (right after Bird retired).  The Heat were just starting to get respectable (Rice/Seikaly/Sherm era) and the Celts were on the decline.  I was wearing a Celtics hat and getting heckled pretty bad.  I kept turning around and waving my hat...saying 16 titles and win a playoff game THEN come back and heckle me!  Anyhow...the Celts lost that game and it stunk.

Of course the Heat ended up wasting a lot of talent in the many years to follow before Shaq and Wade coincided. 

My basic impression of Heat fans was cheeseballs, but that may have just been because I hadn't been humbled by 20 years of Celtics futility yet.
Yup

I also attended a game in Miami in the early 90's. Bird was still playing and was just coming back from being out with ankle surgery. There was a lot of green at the game I attended.  Way too much green for the Heat fans to heckle anyone.  I was pretty vocal cheering for the Celtics and no one bothered me.  The Celtics won that game. 

I went behind the Miami Orena (that's when it was in Overtown) and waited for the Celtics bus to come out and followed the team bus back to their hotel.  While I was waiting for the Celtics, several Heat players drove through and didn't bother to slow down or even wave to the fans there.  The Celtics were very gracious with their time once they got into the hotel lobby.  There were quite a few fans waiting for them.  Kevin McHale was great, even getting on his knees to take a picture with one little boy.  The Chief bent down and put his head closer to mine and was laughing and said that he started bending for pictures after seeing a ton of pictures of him with his head cut off.  They were all great and very friendly and classy with their fans.  I know they must have been tired and wanted to go out to eat but they all took time to visit with fans and take pictures and sign autographs.
