So we have the Heat vs. the Thunder in the NBA Finals. I've thoroughly enjoyed the first three games, even though the team I'm heavily rooting for is down 2-1 in the series.
The other day, I tweeted that anyone outside of Miami who cheers for the Heat lacks a soul. That might be a little extreme, but I don't see how you could back Miami in this series unless you were a long-time Heat fan or somehow connected to the city or one of the players.
Ok, there's one other city that's excused for supporting the Heat. That would be Seattle, a city still in mourning. I understand NBA Finals Betting from that city is pretty heavy on the Heat.
But for the rest of us, the choice is clear. Go Thunder!
Fun fact: Seven years ago, I posted my five favourite NBA teams. Appearing at number five on that list was none other than the Seattle Supersonics. I'm thinking it had something to do with the Reign Man, Shawn Kemp, and Xavier McDaniel's cameo in Singles.
