Well I didnt even know the Heat retired Jordan's number. What the heck are they thinking? They have two players that they can retire in the future. Why pull this crap?  |

They should retire Zo to me along with Wade, although it would be a shame to have Shaq arguably the best ever to not be retired somewhere

Well if Shaq brings the Heat a championship, or just end his career in Miami. Im sure his # will be retired there. |

The entire NBA retired Jordan's number. I think Chicago retired both the 23 and the 45. |

I agree.
The NBA needs another revival, though, and I don't mean another Jordan. Something about that league stinks. I think the "dress code" fiasco was a move of desperation by Stern, trying to copycat the hardline ethics of the NFL. I don't have the answer, but I'm not sure that a second coming of Jordan could even help that league. I think that brawl in Detroit last season is what finished the NBA for me. That's was just classless by all sides: players, fans, NBA brass, etc.
Now Dan Marino, there's a class act. I was always a fan of his, growing up. I was rooting for him to win a ring, but it wasn't meant to be. I think he kinda feels bad that he never won the ring. He's an NFL hall of famer, which trumps a Super Bowl ring, anyway. |
