Not that I give a shit, but point is, if you weren't a fan but then became one because you got caught up in a team winning at whatever point, how is that different then someone getting caught up with what the Heat are now doing and becoming a fan of that?

I think you have to back your home town team. Otherwise you are bandwagon. Exception; there is no team in your state. You SHOULD pick the closest one to back but with no true attachments there, you can choose any team...
That's nice, you making excuses for Ray Ray.
I'm not sure if this factors into what they were talking about, does it?
I thought it was more about non interested people becoming interested because their local team started winning.
Anyway, I think there are too many factors to make a general blanket type of fan rule.
For instance, I grew up in Cleveland but was never a fan of college football, let alone Ohio State.
I became a fan of the game when the Miami Hurricanes started their dominating run.
I think fanship is more about staying with your chosen team through thick and thin vs having to pick the team you live closest to.
In my case my whole family our Die Hard Lakers fans, so when I was 5 years old my Dad started taking me to Lakers games & we pass it on from generation to generation in our family. Jim Doors is a fake ass & pussy Knick fan, who hops on Lebrons dick & it's a fact. This is not about the Heat fans right now at least.

Ohio St > Miami
I just got done watching the 30 for 30 documentary "Bad Boys" on Netflix. I think the MJ's Bulls would sweep LBJ's Heat. But I think if the Heat was able to face the same physical game (rules allowed it a lot more then than they do now), they may be able to really compete.
Michael Jordan's first few years, the Pistons beat him up and bullied him physically and the Bulls could not beat Pistons in a series. Then when MJ became too good and Scottie Pippen started coming to have a major role, the Pistons beat up and bullied him physically. Once Pippen became too good, Pistons has nothing on the Bulls.
I see Miami Heat being just as talented, but the Bulls had to overcome more physical abuse to get to the top that I think it gives them a big edge. I think players like LBJ or Dwayne Wade would have taken the abuse from the Pistons and then come back the next time better.
So, I think the LBJ's Heat would lose to the MJ's Bulls, but I think it is mainly because the talent is very similar, but MJ's Bulls had to overcome a lot more to be as good as they were. If the Heat had gone through similar beatings, I would consider it very close.
So.....the fact that the Pistons would cheap shot Jordan is what made them better?
But my point is, they dominated the entire west for an entire playoff. You said that they never ran through anybody....and if we're gonna do that full comparison about scrub Finals teams, you have to take into account what teams they had to beat to get there. Those portland and sacramento teams were GREAT. Just go look at the roster of the 99-2000 Blazers, they were LOADED. The 2002 Kings were LOADED with one of the best rosters as well....and obviously San Antonio was San antonio. Now I'm not saying that the Lakers would run through the Heat. I think they could make it pretty competitive....but look, that 2000 Shaq was the most unstoppable player I've ever seen. So, I'd take the Lakers in an pretty good seriesI remember 01, but I also remember 00 and 02 as well when the Lakers were pushed to the brink in the first round against an 8th seeded Kings team, 7 games against Portland and 7 games against the Kings
Point is...we're not talking about Lakers vs Scrub Finals team. We're talking about a team who has made it to 4 consecutive finals. Now you're entitled to your opinion that your Lakers would beat the Heat, but to think that the Heat would stand no chance is pretty silly.
Knicks fan first and foremost. Have been for many years. Once they don't make the playoffs or get knocked out. I root for and against whoever I want to.In my case my whole family our Die Hard Lakers fans, so when I was 5 years old my Dad started taking me to Lakers games & we pass it on from generation to generation in our family.

I didn't start liking the Knicks cause they won a title in 1973.
You on the other hand, did exactly that with the Lakers. Lemme guess, LA Kings fan since 2012?

They have rinks in Mexico?Nope been a Kings fan since the early 90's & played hockey when I was a kid, My favorite Kings of all time were Rob Blake & Marty McSorley. I was also a huge fan of Eric Lindros, Brett Hull, Paul Coffey & Brendan Shanahan. I still have my old Autograph Brett Hull Easton hockey stick.
Nice try, now let real men & fans talk.
Next......

Maybe you'll be treated like one when you start acting like one. Real men don't constantly talk about dick sucking.
