Heat Going Cold/ All Star weekend

The heat as of last have not been playing up to their championship standards. Lately I think the Heat are just cruising until the playoffs, because they have showed spurts of "great basketball." Personally I think they shouldn't wait till the playoffs to start playing hard because as they are cruising teams are getting better each game. Then they will find themselves in a situation they don't want to be in. Such as being a lower seed and playing someone like the Pacers the first round and potentially be knocked out the first round.

In more interesting news the Heat has three players going to the All Star game this year, held in New Orleans. This would be Lebron's 9th consecutive all-star game, Wade's 7th all-star appearance, and Bosh's 5th all-star appearance. All- star weekend is a fun time for the players as well as the fans. The players get to play with some of the guys they go up against each and they get to just relax and have fun. The fans get to enjoy the 3 point contest, skills challenge, and the most exciting the dunk contest. My favorite part about all-star weekend is the cool shoes the players come out with specially for the all-star game. I personally can't wait to see what shoes Lebron James and Kevin Durant have in store.
