Miami Heat has always been overrated.

[Glide2keva]

Both fan bases are really cocky and I don't really understand it. Shouldn't Bulls fans learn from last year when they were in a similar position to this one??? and the same thing applies to the heat and the finals.

Cocky?

I think most real Bulls fans on here say the Bulls CAN beat Miami, but haven't gone so far as to say they WILL beat them.

Whereas on the other hand, Heat fans are acting like they are in he Finals already and are just waiting on the buzzer to sound.

I dont see any Thunder fans getting cocky unlike you bulls and heat supporters.

How are Bulls fans cocky?

Be careful because a lot of the people that post pro Bulls threads aren't even Bulls fans.

They went to the Finals their first year together, how are they overrated? I hate the Heat as much as the next man, but come on now.

[FONT="Book Antiqua"][COLOR="SeaGreen"]The sentence should be changed to:

The Miami Heat have always been overrated.

In this particular case, "The Heat" [COLOR="Red"]is [/COLOR]plural, not singular.

Actually, in this particular case, not only are you wrong, you even corrected yourself in your own sentence.

"The Heat" is singular. There's only 1 team.

It's a name, not a sentence.

dumb reaction thread by a dummy. What happened last year? Heat sh*t on the Bulls 4-1 without homecourt. Stop looking for a reason to demean the Heat, man. YOU know the Heat are a great team. Just like I admit that the Bulls are a great team and are able to beat us.

If by shitting, you mean they won four close games that came down to the wire, then yeah they shat on the Bulls the whole series.



Oh my bad, I forgot the heat blew the Bulls out in all of those games, oh wait.

list the teams that have 3 perennial all-stars.
Of those teams, how many have 2 of the top 5 players in the world?

Aside from the fact we didnt get sh*t on, in fact it was a close series that went only 5 games, could of been alot more.

Heat are NOT a great team, they get by with pure talent, big difference.

As for still bringing up last year, I find that funny since your finals performance was rather embarassing. Lebron and Wade were about as disappointing as you can get I bet the Bulls would of pushed that series at least 6 games against the mavs.

If Bulls bounce the Heat this year, what then? The Heat and its fans will be left in a shambles, and Lebron will live with being a long time loser.

And of those teams, which one won the title last year?

Oh, wait.

Nevermind.

[COLOR="Green"][FONT="Book Antiqua"]Thank you for your interest in spelling and grammar.

My original post is factually correct. Let's use examples to illustrate:

The San Antonio Spurs have always been overrated.
The Golden State Warriors have always been overrated.
The Los Angeles Lakers have always been overrated.
The Miami Heat have always been overrated.

Just like the other team nicknames above, "The Miami Heat" refers to a group of individuals. Therefore, it is plural, not singular.

In order to emphasis the point, you can replace "The Miami Heat" with its appropriate pronoun. In this case, we would use the pronoun "They".

They have always been overrated.

As for my use of the word "is" in describing "The Heat", we are simply talking about the phrase itself. Since there is one phrase, this is singular. Therefore, we use "is" to describe it. This becomes obvious when replacing "The Heat" with its proper pronoun, "it".

In this particular case, "The Heat" is plural, not singular.
