    Perhaps I'm just looking for reasons to dislike the Heat, but . . .

    I went to both games and the way the Heat team treats the starting lineup intros seems odd to me. The starters don't run out (or even walk a few steps) when their names are announced on the PA. They just stay in the huddle reacting among themselves, paying absolutely no attention to the announcer or the traditional intro protocol.

    In fact, they make a point of acting completely disinterested in the fans, the setting, or any obligation (however fleeting) they might have to acknowledge any of those things.

    This is no accident but appears to be a statement bordering upon contempt.

    Yet I haven't heard any TV announcer or even any Spurs fan make any comment about this. Is it just me who thinks this is at least strange or have the mores of the game completely passed me by?

    I've noticed it also. I guess it's there "get tough image"?
