This is a day for posting about Miami sports.
I already wrote about the change in logos and uniforms for the NFL's Miami Dolphins. But there is actually a larger sports-related story coming out of Miami today.
The Miami Heat's 27-game winning streak is over. It was the second longest winning streak in NBA history, and many were beginning to expect that the Heat would overtake the Los Angeles Lakers of the early seventies.
It didn't happen, as the Heat lost to the Chicago Bulls at the United Center last night, ending the streak at 27.
Still pretty damn good, though. It was the second longest winning streak in NBA history.
Lebron James complained about some of the rough fouls that he received during the course of the game.
Ultimately, however, Chicago took the game, and the Heat lost their first game since January! Imagine how lengthy that streak was!
I'll be the first to admit that I'm not the biggest fan of the Heat, but I will tip my hat off to them for a tremendous effort and a historical run that earned them the best record in the league (at this point, at least), and virtually locked up their top seed for the East. I have quite a bit of respect for them.
It's hard to imagine them not getting back to the NBA Finals!
