It's really not that difficult, unless you want to stick your fingers in your ears and pretend both are on equal footing in the public's eye.
The Spurs are the model franchise. They do everything the right way.
The Heat are the Playstation franchise.
When you make declarations, have the regular season success they did this year, you have a huge target on your back and those expectations have to be met or the season is a failure.
Why are you so against the word failure? Was the goal not to win a ring?

I'm not against failure. If the Heat don't win it this year then this season was a failure. I'm just saying that if the Spurs don't win then it's failure for them as well.
