Active Roster
A) I'm taking your reference of The Canes being the greatest in the history of ever cause thats just an awesome sentence
and
B) Before a rebuttal about LDC putting their backs before the season started with the announcements of their ring promises and what not, that was meant for us Heat fans, not anybody else. I don't believe any other media outlet was called to their welcoming party excet Sun Sports. It wasn't like he went onto Letterman or Conan or ESPN and declared us the Champs. The Heat did it for their fans, not the nation. This is why I hate how Barkley chimes in and says they did it to themselves starting with the pep rally. What was Lebron supposed to tell us, "I just hope we stay above .500"
Fact of the matter is, everybody had somebody to help alleviate the pressure and i don't know why you and so many others are so quick to dismiss that notion. When Krause traded for Pippen, it was one of the greatest draft day trades to ever happen. Jordan was very lucky that that deal went down. I said it in a previous thread, Jordan is the greatest to ever play but he didn't exactly have the most talented of rosters to compete against. The Celtics, Pistons, and Lakers were all done by the time he won his first title. Detroit didn't make it back to the finals until this past decade.
Check this video out and if your still willing to dispute that Jordan didn't have that much help and that Scottie shouldn't be considered a top 50 player or that the 90's competition was really that tough then this thread is most definitley dead. I just found this vid but please focus more on minute 3:30 mark cause that goes with everything that I and many others have been saying about needing help.
