I'm curious as to what many fans, including Heat, take of the Heat getting swept in the first round. I remember someone, from this site earlier in the season, said that it would be justice if the Heat got swept in the first round, or not even make the Playoffs. Personally, I do think it is a kind of poetic justice.

All i could say is Shaq had it coming... I remember a press conference that I saw before the Miami / Chicago series, and Shaq said, "It doesn't matter what bleeping team we play..." then giving the impression that they were going to go all the way... Plus I also was hearing him promise the city of Miami during their championship parade that they were going to bring home another one... I guess thats why I saw the tears come out of his eyes... Funny, I don't remember him tearing up after San Antonio taking the Lakers out of their championship streak a few years back. That was the year he also didn't want to take care of his big toe during the off season; instead he decided to be out the beginning of the season to have it operated on... I wonder if he still thinks he's worth the money... Could someone tell me how many free throws he's made this series?
I don't think he's worth his money either. I'm not a Shaq hater I like him very much. But I think it's about time that he stops being greedy and let the team have more money to sign someone else to support him. Geez 20 mil for 34-5 year old player and still has what 3-4 more years to go? What difference would it make if he only(yeah only) got paid 10 mil a year. I think that's still a lot of money anyways.
