Miami Heat: Who, honestly, Doesn’t Like Oreo Cookies?
The Miami Heat are climbing back into the swing of things. With a resurgence over the last three weeks or so, fueled by good health, great fortune, and peak Jimmy Butler, they’ve managed to play themselves back into contention for the NBA’s Eastern Conference title.
That’s important because, well, in order to win a title, you must first win your own conference. Speaking of winning titles though, the NBA and some of it’s sponsoring partners have decided that this year was the right time to honor some of their past champions, contenders, and teams of that ilk.
It all started recently, though with no apparent connection betwixt the two, with the NBA’s Earned Edition Jerseys. Now though, the Miami Heat have really made it.
Starting soon, you’ll be able to find your favorite little snack-cookie, stamped with the logo of your favorite little professional basketball team. This is the portion of the program where cookie-lovers go nuts.
