retro 6 lakers for sale MIAMI — Hysteria and hyperbole have been commonplace regarding all matters concerning the Miami Heat the past four years. But, for a change, one of those inflating the importance of events in recent days came from inside the Heat organization.
That was LeBron James, who, after an embarrassing home loss to theDenver Nuggets on Friday, sounded as if he were a sports radio host breathlessly selling a tease into the break.
"This moment will either define our season or end our season," James told reporters.
James tapered it back some, adding that "obviously, it won't end right now, but if it carries on into the playoffs it will." Still, it was odd to hear him exaggerate, when he tends to downplay.
retro 6 lakers for sale No seasons were defined Sunday, not that of the healing Heat, and not that of the still-reeling Rockets. The Heat will likely start the playoffs as the East's second seed, and the Rockets will likely start the playoffs as the West's fourth seed.
But Miami's 113-104 win,retro 6 lakers for sale which included a 21-7 sprint to the finish, was significant, more for what it avoided than what it earned. Another loss would have been Miami's sixth in seven games—the worst stretch since Feb. 24 to Mar. 8 of 2013—and would have turned the white hot sports spotlight back on South Florida.
