Should The Heat Stay In Miami?

                                                                         AMK(2013)  

In my course '82' me and my class mates had to make an info graph based on a basketball franchise we had to pick, an info graph is a graph that shows visual such as charts or diagrams, to represent data. I made an info graph that represents all of Miamis data over the years. I am most proud of my info graph poster because it came out a success, it represents all of the information I need on the Heat and it is easy to maneuver(read) . What I wish could have been better was the text I used to write with and how it displayed on my bored. The basketball franchise I chose was The Miami Heat, The Miami Heat is a basketball team that started in 1997 in Miami ,Florida. I believe that The Miami Heat should stay in Miami Florida because, The Miami Heat today is a great team featuring great players; Dwayne Wade, Lebron James, and Chris Bosh These three players have led the team to two consecutive championships due to their outstanding performances. 

Also the team is well respected as 'leaders'.Since Lebron James came to The Heat in 2010, their attendance rate has gone up from 95.2%(in 2009-10) to 100.7%(in 2011-2012). The Miami heat attendance plays a great factor in the team in general because without the fans the franchise  would then lose money, and also support from Miami. Additionally The Miami Heat as a franchises is worth $625 million; $173 million for sport, $232 million for market, $142 million for stadium, and $82 million for brand. The Miami Heats worth is the 6th greatest in the NBA league.

The Miami Heat should stay in Miami because they would also attract a lot of tourists, Miami is a beautiful city that has wonderful places such as beaches, malls,and of course, The American Airlines Arena. I believe if The Heat continue to stay in Miami they would eventually become as big as the New York Knicks, or the Los Angeles Lakers. In conclusion I think the Miami Heat should delay on going anywhere , any time soon because, of how good they have been performing over the course of four years, also they seem to have very supporting fans which always makes a team compelling. Why would you want them to leave?
