If this is actually true then the Heat were sore losers, not much more to it then that.

Look at our cap space for 2021.
My guy.
I thought about responding, but on second thought i did not want to spend my energy explaining our cap situation.

Hilarious and very ironic considering the Lebron walk off in game 3. In addition, Lakers were acting like frontrunners the entire series. Did they really deserve handshakes & sportsmanship?

Heej wrote:Honestly, just a truly trashy display of a major lack of sportsmanship and professionalism from the Miami Heat's side. It's completely understandable for players not to shake hands during a series because you're at war with the other team, but at the end of the day you're just a sore loser if you can't at least make the effort to display that kind of common decency when the series finishes.
Even someone like Draymond was able to dap up the Cavs after their championship, and he was widely considered to be a major scumbag that season. UD was the only real one on Miami that entire time. Clearly this is why the Heat went out sorry the one time the Lakers played angry this series. Just a complete lack of true leadership.
Karma is a b**** don't be surprised if Miami fails to make it back here with this squad. Especially with Giannis potentially going the Dame route. The Heat are who we thought they were. Trash and soft.
I do not blame them for not shaking hands because of covid, you are overreacting

LOL "I dont care"
Im done.
It was done when Jimmy got outplayed by Rondo tonight in a must win game, after all the crap he talked. Way to back up that talk Jimmy
if you dont think Jimmy backed up that talk, then i dont know what else to tell you. He did great this post season and a lot of people changed their opinion of him, great guy, never complains like the whole laker team. We are proud of our whole team despite all this garbage narrative you are spewing. Better to be authentic than hypocrite, we did not stay because we dont like Lebron as a person, there is not respect we should offer him at all, he was again carried to a championship just as we carried him in Miami, we were champions before the laughing stock of the NBA was getting spanked by Boston year after year, the way i see it we made him a Champion instead of the other way around. Do you think his charade and mocking every time he made a jumper with the game already out of hand sat well with our players, i am glad they just walked out, there is not respect as a person you should pay to this clown. Carry on

this clown was flexing when dunking when the game was out of reach already, making funny faces every time he hit a jumper, why should you congratulate such a clown for such shenanigans.

If the heat would have shook hands, you would have called it a super spreader event.

Re: No one on the Heat shook hands with the Lakers other than UD
After that game 5 **** with putting on mamba jerseys and such like it was already over? That was straight disrespectful. I'm not shaking their hands either unless I have a personal relationship with any of the guys that won. Foh with that garbage. You can wax that nonsense about us being soft or whatever but you're not fooling anyone with that mess. Please. Enjoy your LeBron chip and stop whining about nonsense no one cares about.
And for the rest of you, LeBron is the goddamned face of the league, of course the standards of his behavior will be held higher and under a microscope. This is common sense.

Re: No one on the Heat shook hands with the Lakers other than UD
I was watching for it all too -
but thought maybe there was some COVID angle why they did not.....?
I want to hear/know more about this.
tip for NBA - People like me watch for this stuff.
Don;t cut to commercial - put a wide angle camera on after every game and let us watch all the players/coaches interact.
Some of those interactions clue us in who are friends and that matters for FA.
I love League Pass where they show the guys warming up and talking. These interactions are meaningful.

Nuggests Lakers all shook hands at the end of their game. as an example that a losing team shook hands with the Lakers.

Re: No one on the Heat shook hands with the Lakers other than UD
What’s truly pathetic is LeBron James, a grown ass 35 year old man who is clearly a top 3 basketball player of all time, convincing himself that “nobody respects him.”
What’s truly pathetic is his victim mentality as one of the richest athletes in the world.
What’s truly pathetic is LeBron James SCREAMING at refs after almost 9/10 possession in the bubble regardless of what is going on. Carrying on like a 15 year old AAU kid mad that he’s not getting his 40 shots up.
The level of immaturity shown by this force of nature is truly disturbing. That’s wholly more disrespectful to the game than what the Heat did

Your lack of ability to reply with anything but snide bull is showing. Address what I said? Nope. Just keep suckling on the LBJ teat my friend.
