Have to imagine the crowd will be tilting toward Providence this evening. Fans of Miami and Iowa State aren’t going to be cheering for their team to face Kansas in the next round. #kubball7:07 PM

I want to tweet about how bad Miami traffic is tonight. But you know this already. Part of my Presidential election platform will ban traffic and Ultra music festivals. Vote for me. Let’s end traffic together. Paid for by the committee that just doesn’t get it. #ad5:33 PM
Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat
Question: Could the Heat and the city not have worked together not to have back-to-back weekend games next door to Ultra? Um, Urban Planning 101? – 5:11 PM
Ira Winderman @IraHeatBeat
A warning to those attempting to get to tonight‘s Heat game: it might already be too late with this traffic. But if you’re coming to Saturday night’s game against Brooklyn, leave now. – 5:08 PM
