The Miami Heat parade celebration is winding down, and already, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James have been called up to speak. Wade's segment involved him handing out special watches to hear coach Erik Spoelstra, team president Pat Riley and owner Mickey Arison. Oh, and he wore his patented pink shorts as well.
Wade and his teammates made the look famous early in their run to the NBA title. Wade, LeBron James and Chris bosh all wore pink pants at different points.
Meanwhile, James followed Wade to the stage. In an interview with Heat sideline reporter Jason Jackson, James was asked to explain his decision to refer to his team as the "Heatles" early in his first season. James explained that, love them or hate them, the Heat were must-see TV. That led to the Heat playing a video montage splicing together clips of the Heat on the court and old clips of the Beatles performing. They superimposed Heat players' heads on the Beatles' bodies, like this.
