I think it's easily the Heat losing like they did. The Dolphins made the right move in my opinion. They are getting a player that will make an immediate impact and will contend for rookie of the year. Unless I'm wrong about Ginn. We shall see but I don't think anyone can say for sure whether a selection was a good one or a bad one until after they have played. The Heat, on the other hand, their fans have to be really disappointed. Not just because of the results of this year though. This was not a total surprise. Hell, I picked them to lose in the first round myself. The truth of the matter is that they were a fortunate champion last year. They never dominated but they came together when they needed to. But now, they've been really exposed. They have to make major changes in the off-season or else this scene is likely to be repeated. I love Wade but I fear that with his style of play, he's never going to be at 100% again. Shaq is a year older. Same thing for Walker, Williams, Mourning, Jones, and some others. This team was kept together for the purpose of giving it one more shot. That didn't work. Next year, they better do some things different. The Dolphins are closer to being contenders for a title in their league than the Heat are in theirs.
