Not much of an introduction necessary here… The most important things Pat Riley said today, tweet by tweet…. First, this, in response to our question… Pat Riley on whether he will finish with the Heat, in light of Lakers situation: "Absolutely." — Five Reasons Sports Network (@5ReasonsSports) April 13, 2019 "Absolutely" — Pat Riley's […]
It was the open secret of the Miami Heat season. The proverbial elephant in the room. Dion Weighte- (er, Waiters) was overweight. And the Heat, behind the scenes, weren’t happy about it. Very not happy about it. Heat fans, on the other hand, were equal parts amused and annoyed, until Waiters went on a three-point […]
There will be no playoffs this season for the Miami Heat, so Clean Out Day came early. Some players and Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra are meeting with the media and, as of this writing, big men Kelly Olynyk and Bam Adebayo have already done so. Adebayo, in particular, is interesting because he had a […]
We probably didn’t need to do this. It was kind of a foregone conclusion, when we selected 52 of the least popular sports figures in South Florida history — split into Sports Figures and Athletes brackets — that the frugal, former owner of the Miami Marlins would eventually tear down the nets like he tore […]
No one expected the Miami Marlins to be an offensive juggernaut. Not after dealing their five best offensive players in the past 18 months. Not with only a trio of major league qualified hitters in the lineup. Not when Starlin Castro is probably the best of them. But this? This is ridiculous. Miami was shut […]
(Photo taken after the 2013 championship, and one of the few I have that isn’t blurry.) This was supposed to be anticlimactic. Dwyane Wade, however, isn’t capable of creating boredom. So in his last game, in front of his Banana Boat mates and mostly Miami Heat fans in Brooklyn, and playing 36 minutes the […]
As we write this, Dwyane Wade has played 17 minutes and scored nine points in the first half in Brooklyn — which is more than we expected. But after a nearly-perfect last night at AmericanAirlines Arena, the most interesting stuff today has been on social media, as luminaries have sent Wade off into retirement. Here […]
Now that the emotion has subsided and the tears have all mostly dried up, can we maybe take a second to give that Budweiser ad the side-eye it so rightfully deserved? You’ve seen the video by now. Dwyane Wade swapping “jerseys” with people whose lives he’s touched. Victims of gun violence. Poverty. Addiction. It’s powerful. […]
This has been a nutty night in the NBA, and it’s not just that Dwyane Wade nearly suffered his first significant injury of his age-37 season when he stood on a table, or that Udonis Haslem was draining jumpers again. Dwyane Wade with 30, Dirk Nowitzki with 30, Jamal Crawford with 50, Magic quit on […]
The day started with a simple question. What has Dwyane Wade meant to you? Starting this early…. This is the thread where you can answer this question: "What has @DwyaneWade meant to me?" What follows here is mine….. — Ethan — THREE Reasons Sports Network (@5ReasonsSports) April 9, 2019 Here were some of the best […]
