No, that's not me making some kind of judgement about the team and their current "issues" -- it's actually an anagram. Enter a word or a phrase into the text box at Sternest MeaningsSternest Meanings = Instant Messenger and it returns an anagram. Let's take a look at the rest of the team (and mind you, this isn't me talking, it's the computer):
Antonio McDyess = Moody instances
Perhaps referring to that instance after Game 5 of the Cleveland series.
Sidney Lowe = Solid weeny
Come on, now, that's just mean.
Ben Wallace = Blew a clean
I'd hope so! The last thing this team needs now is someone getting a DUI.
Carlos Delfino = Social fondler
Hey now! That's a little more info than I was looking for!
Chauncey Billups = Cynical, lush pube
I don't like the direction this is going...
Rip Hamilton = Patrol in him
Well, it doesn't actually make sense, but he is always moving/patrolling the court.
Tayshaun Prince = Puniest anarchy
He is the skinniest guy on the court, and when he's chasing down a fast break all hell breaks loose.
Sheed Wallace = Ace swellhead
Hmm....
Flip Saunders = Plunders as if
Plunders as if what? Don't leave us hanging! How about . . .
Head coach Flip Saunders = Phase scornful acid-head
That's untrue. Flip seems like a kind man, and not the type that would turn to drugs.

Alright, let's take a look at the Miami Heat:
Gary Payton = Party agony
You got that? If you're planning a party, just leave the Glove off the invitation list.
Pat Riley = Real pity
It certainly will be, losing two Eastern Conference Finals in a row...
Shaquille O'Neal = Squeal in a hello
He never seemed like the type of guy that squeled, but I guess you never know.
Zo Mourning = Run on gizmo
I didn't know he was such a Gremlins fan, but I found the perfect t-shirt for him.
Let's take a look around the NBA:
Darko Milicic = Acidic or milk
Either way, his stay in Detroit left a bad taste in our mouths.
LeBron James = Jeer man slob
Maybe because he wears that damn Yankee hat everywhere...
Yao Ming = I'm agony
Interesting... have you ever seen him smile?
-
How about some classic Bad Boys?
Isiah Thomas = I am a hot hiss
Joe Dumars = Used major
Bill Laimbeer = Balmier libel
Adrian Dantley = Neat and aridly
Dennis Rodman = Demon Innards
Sad but true...
John "Spider" Salley = Joyless philander
Chuck Daly = Lucky Chad
-
And last but not least...
Detroit Bad Boys = Tidy to absorbed
Matthew Watson = That west woman
Blah blah blah, it's obviously just nonsense.
Ian Cameron = Necromania
Yikes, maybe I need to talk to him about that.

From the "they can't all make sense" category:
Lindsey Hunter = Thundery lines
Dale Davis = Avid deals
Tony Delk = Dent yolk
Kelvin Cato = Native lock
Jason Maxiell = Lax male joins
Alex Acker = Cake relax
Amir Johnson = Harm on joins
I've only touched the tip of the iceberg -- head over to Sternest Meanings and see what you can find, and tell us in the comments.
