Recently always in micro-blog to see this word heat.Through Baidu I know this is a basketball team.But from the rumours it seems to mean not that.The netizen says this is because the summer high temperature by popular.See an interesting news recently in micro-blog, a student at the Wuhan University, drying the quilt on the roof, take the quilt quilt charred found.China's university dormitory condition is not good, in this hot summer, no air-conditioning, the room temperature more than 30 degrees, you sleep?

okay then. Note to self: When visiting China, do not hang things outside in the summer or they will burn.
Sometimes when Its really hot, I can do nothing but want to sleep. It makes me sluggish.

i personally have a hard time sleeping when it is hot. I would rather my bedroom be frigid cold and have to pile on many blankets to be comfortable, than to be laying on my bed sweating with nothing over me....
(but back to what Dawn said...the word heat can be used a few ways in the english language. i BELIEVE (no confirmation on this) that the reason the basketball team is called "Heat" refers back to an english language phrase that says "if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen" where "heat" means competition, challenge, or difficulty, ...so it translates a little better (still in english) to "if you don't want to be challenged, then give up"...

The word heat refers to something being hot, like the weather, but The Heat is also the name of a basketball team, correct.
