Last month, Nicole Muxo released a YouTube video in hopes of luring Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade to her senior prom at Archbishop Coleman Carroll High School in Miami, Fla.
Wade never responded to her offer... until surprising her at the prom Friday night.

Last night Microsoft opened up a new store in Miami, and former Heat center Alonzo Mourning was a special guest and even shared a few words in regards to important it was for Microsoft to stay apart of the community and translating that to the world of basketball.
Mourning took some questions at the end of his appearance, and in this video courtesy of Daily Sports Club, answered a question about who is the better player, LeBron James or Michael Jordan?
Mourning while also incriminating Jordan’s former teammate Scottie Pippen, picked LeBron, and from the way they described it, picked LeBron by a huge margin.
Mourning can be heard saying that Pippen told him at Jordan birthday party, that “LeBron would kick Michael’s ass.”
Wonder what Michael will say when he see’s this video.
Dwyane Wade accepted the YouTube prom invitation of a local high school senior during the Miami Heat's break between playoff series, proving once and for all that the Heat are in full-on "coast mode" as they cruise through the 2013 NBA playoffs.
According to WSVN TV in Miami, Nicole Muxo cooked up a video request to the Heat shooting guard after she struck out in her attempt to get Wade to accompany her
Miami Heat fan Filomena "Birdwoman" Tobias is trying to bury the middle finger once and for all.
The Miami socialite became the face of the Bulls-Heat series last week when she greeted Joakim Noah with an obscene gesture after Noah was ejected from an emotion-packed game. As the photo of Tobias flipping off Noah circulated around the Internet, she got the usual attention and rude comments -- and then the lid really came off.
A little digging revealed that Tobias' late husband, Seth Tobias, had mysteriously died in his pool in 2007 . The Internet, ever quick to rush to judgment, quickly started making its own connections.
Tobias ignored much of the attention, but she is now pushing back. Her lawyer, Anthony Barbuto, sent a statement to gossipextra.com saying that Tobias regrets the incident -- but also that she would please like to be left alone.
"Ms. Tobias has been a devoted Miami Heat fan for as long as she can remember, and like many other devoted fans, she unfortunately allowed her
They were globally insignificant and, on the whole, an object of civic ridicule. There had been so much failure and futility, so much shameful history, so many years of shoddy product peddled by an infernally inept ownership.
The Miami Heat were expected to easily handle what was left of the Chicago Bulls. And for the most part, they did just that, downing the Bulls in a five-game span.
However, that’s not to say drama was nowhere to be found.
The Bulls, despite being undoubtedly the most depleted team in the postseason, managed to grind out a Game 1 victory in Miami, swiping home court away from the defending champions.
And while Miami ended up winning the next four, Chicago’s grit and physical play left many wondering if the Heat, who have now won 45 of their last 48 games, still look as
MIAMI -- As a four-time league MVP and the catalyst for the NBA's defending champions, LeBron James isn't accustomed to having his rhythm disrupted these days.
Good defenders rarely bother him.
Great schemes do little to knock him off his game.
But the only thing to stop James in his tracks recently has been a self-inflicted wound of sorts: His team's dominance so far this postseason. The Miami Heat are 8-1 through two rounds of their best-of-seven playoff series.
Heat guard will continue to play through bone bruise
One might assume that Heat guard Dwyane Wade was happy to see the Knicks push the Pacers to a sixth game in their series, because it guaranteed an extra two days of rest for Wade before the start of the Eastern Conference finals, now set for Wednesday.
LeBron James in the open floor is one of the NBA’s scarier sights.
Apparently, however, the Bulls arrived at a solution.
In Game 3, Nazr Mohammed fouled James more than 40 feet from the basket, which led to a technical foul on James, and then — when Mohammed stood up and shoved James — an ejection of the Bulls’ backup center.
“I’ve seen it a few times,” Cole said, smiling. “Everybody’s messaging me, linking the YouTube link on it. I’m like, ‘I”ve seen it, I’ve seen it. I was there.’”
It wasn’t the first time he has slammed in traffic with the left hand.
“Several, several, several in college and high school,” Cole said. “But that was the nastiest one, though, playoffs, right there.”
The Miami Heat have LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. The Spurs have dominated for years with the trio of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.
Former NBA big man Alonzo Mourning was on hand to celebrate a recent Microsoft store opening in Miami when he began fielding questions from the crowd.Naturally, the conversation quickly turned to Heat star LeBron James, and then eventually to King James versus Michael Jordan. This is when the former seven-time All-Star decided to share some gossip.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- The Miami Heat have LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. The Spurs have dominated for years with the trio of Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili.
MIAMI -- Erik Spoelstra laughed at the question.
The coach was asked at Friday's Heat practice if he feels pity for the video coordinators these days. After all, they have to prepare not one, but two full scouting reports, one for the New York Knicks and one for the Indiana Pacers, because the Heat still don't know who they're playing for the Eastern Conference Finals. Actually, it's possible that the idle Heat won't know who they're playing until Monday night ahead of Game 1, which starts on Wednesday.
Ending the season on a 37-2 run painted a promise-filled picture for the Miami Heat's postseason. Miami has lost just one game since the playoffs began, which came after a little over a week's rest. Many saw the stifling defense of the Chicago Bulls as a central factor, and it may have been so, but it was obvious the Heat were a little rusty. However, it would seem some players are still having trouble adjusting.
The roster has many notable shooters penned, however, naming each one would be a redundant sentence at this point of the season, as most of the
NBA Fashion Fever moved to the media world? No bueno! By now we’ve all seen Dwyane Wade’s notorious “European style” suits he’s been wearing to the arenas (which, by the way, is still NOT cool by us Americans), but now it’s become infectious. Mike and Mike’s Mike Greenberg said this week on his show that his wife [...]The post Mike Greenberg, Dwyane Wade And The Clothes That Make Men appeared first on The Sports Fan Journal.
For the second consecutive summer, the Dallas Mavericks could have significant salary cap space on hand if they choose to pass on re-signing some of their free agents. And, for the second straight year, this is in spite of Dirk Nowitzki’s much-deserved but massive individual contract, something that paid him nearly $21 million this season and nearly $23 million in 2013-14 .
After being passed over by Deron Williams and left wanting in Dwight Howard trade negotiations, he Mavericks did well last year to put together what felt like a good enough roster to make the playoffs. The team acquisitions (O.J. Mayo, Darren Collison, Chris Kamen) all came through with up and down seasons, though, while Elton Brand sadly was a bit of a non-factor. The biggest problem above all was the loss of Nowitzki to a knee injury to start the season. Dallas competed for a playoff berth towards the end of the campaign, but with Nowitzki taking to nearly the season’s midpoint to start playing like the superstar he is, the Mavs just didn’t have a chance.
Now Dirk is talking up the future. He wants Dwight Howard. He wants Chris Paul. He wants to part of the draft decision-making process. And he wants some pizza, dammit.
How can you deny a mother her right to support her son while he participates in such a dangerous sport as basketball I mean what if he trips over the little guy and injures himself. Wow wouldn't that be some thing to talk about . I can see it, Lebron James trips over a midget falls and destroys his ACL, game over. Truly some had to be thinking,David and Goliath,in a last ditch effort to try and salvage a game. Lets thank King James for showing some consideration for the Bulls for not sweeping the floor like he did in game 4, this time he let them go with some dignity in tack! I say all hale to the Queen for caring enough,to stay in the game with her son the King. At least this mom knows where her son is and what he’s doing ! Some people just don’t know what to say out of their mouth its disgusting. So writer although you have the right to freedom of the press you really don’t have to let the world know how ridiculous your infantile mind really works. Where is your Mom and what ...
After eliminating the Chicago Bulls, in what he called one of the most challenging closeout games of his 10-year career, LeBron James was asked when he would begin preparing for the Eastern Conference finals.
The Miami Heat forward, clearly exhausted, offered an honest answer.
“I need at least 24 hours after going against those guys."
SEATTLE - The last unresolved question over the fate of the Sacramento Kings was answered Thursday night when it was reported that the Maloof family had reached a deal to sell the team to a Sacramento group led by Vivek Ranadive.
LOS ANGELES-The strong relationship between Los Angeles Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro and owner Donald Sterling could mean Del Negro will be back with the team in 2013-14.
Gold T-shirts were all over the building, worn over tank tops and underneath the uniforms of police officers. The noisy support was there during the best of times. The crowd at Oracle Arena tried just about everything.
Q: Ira, I am so sick of all of these Heat "fans" with the "oh no it's (insert Team X here they're scared of this week)"! I'm not saying any of the teams left will be easy, but unless LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Ray Allen, Shane Battier, Birdman, Norris Cole, Udonis Haslem, Erik Spoelstra go play on the other team, why should we be scared? -- Mike.
Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and the San Antonio Spurs are back in the Western Conference finals for the second straight season with the same style that has carried them to four NBA titles.
The world of professional sports is like living in a comic book where everything is faster, higher, stronger, harder and infinitely more intense; star athletes are like mutant, superhuman X-Men characters. For everyone that labors under the false notion that they were an ounce of training short of taking their talents to the show, read up and get an education in reality. Who better illustrates this point than King James himself.

1. Lebron James is 6’8″, 250 pounds of muscle that twitches faster than a Meth addict at the policeman’s ball. He was measured at 6.7% body fat when he was drafted in 2003 and if you look at pictures from now versus then, he’s only gotten stronger. The average U.S. male is 5’10″, 194 lbs, 18-24% body fat. Talent aside that puts him below the .1% line. Shut up and eat your wings.
