Miami Heat

Justin Bieber was the ringleader in a SECOND pap altercation in Miami Wednesday -- ordering his goons to steal a photog's camera ... all while the man pled desperately for mercy -- and the entire exchange was caught on tape.

The incident occurred outside The Hit Factory recording studio at around 4 AM ... just hours before Bieber's security guards allegedly choked another photographer, and tried to jack his camera equipment as well.

On the tape, you hear Justin scream to his bodyguards, "Grab that camera!!! Get that f***ing camera out of here!!!" (time code: 1:08)

You can hear the photog plead with Justin, who responds like a benevolent prince, "Alright, alright. I'm gonna give you your camera back. I'm gonna take your SIM card though."

The photog begs and pleads to let him keep his memory card -- even offering to delete the photos he took -- but Bieber is unmoved.

Authorities are currently investigating the altercation that took place later in the day -- but law enforcement tells us, police have no record of the earlier incident because it wasn't reported.

We reached out to Justin's people ... so far, no comment.

All told, Bieber's had three run-ins with photogs while in Miami this week -- the first incident occurred Monday night at the American Airlines Arena following the Heat game. Someone snapped this pic of Bieber on his cell phone and the singer reportedly flipped out.

NBA star Lance Stephenson isn't going to the Finals ... or to Disneyland -- but it's ok, because he did get to see a roomful of naked chicks at a famous Miami strip club ... TMZ has learned.

Just hours after Lance and the Indiana Pacers lost game 7 to the Miami Heat Monday ... the shooting guard eased his pain at King of Diamonds -- the gentleman's club where Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, and Rihanna frequently make it rain.

Lance on the other hand ... made it sprinkle. Our KOD sources say the 22-year-old stood in the corner most of the night, only got 2 lap dances, and dropped a grand total of about $1100.

Not that $1100 is chump change, but typically we've seen celebs shower dancers with $5,000 to $10,000.

In Lance's defense ... he's only a 3-year pro who's hardly making LeBron dollars.

Or maybe he just adheres to the laws of BBD.

Lakers star Metta World Peace went out on a limb -- making a bold prediction on who will win the NBA Finals ... and then the limb snapped when he tried to spell his pick.

We'll tell you this much ... Metta's riding with the San Antonio Spurs to take down LeBron James and the Miami Heat -- but you gotta hear how he spells it.

He might have been joking, but then again ...

As the former Secretary of Defense, there's one question we HAD to ask Donald Rumsfeld in D.C. yesterday -- IS THERE ANY WAY TO STOP LEBRON JAMES???

The funniest part -- Rummy actually ANSWERS the question!!

The whole exchange is pretty great -- and it's clear, when it comes to the upcoming NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the Miami Heat ... Donald's riding with the squad from South Beach.

SIZE MATTERS ... and at last night's Heat-Pacers game, Justin Bieber was in the teeny weenie Jesus department compared to Flo Rida.

Justin dropped by the American Airlines Arena for Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals, wearing his bandwagon baseball cap and Hefty-brand button down ... but the tiny Jesus really made a messiah of his outfit.

Flo Rida vs. Justin Bieber -- it's a slam dunk, right?

Flo Rida has his arm around an empty chair at the Miami Heat vs. Indiana Pacers game last night ... after his manager got EJECTED for being a trash-talkin' pain in the ass.

Flo and his manager were sitting pretty close to the Pacers bench ... when his manager allegedly began to verbally attack Pacers player Jeff Pendergraph.

TNT sideline reporter (and connoisseur of ugly sportcoats) Craig Sager beelined over to the scene and got the scoop ... explaining, "It actually was Flo Rida's manager who was ejected.

"He and Pendergraph had been going back and forth. He got to be such a distraction that the officials came over and tried to eject him. He wanted to stay put. However, Flo Rida said, 'You're my manager, but you've got to get out of here now.'"

Dwyane Wade and LeBron James really are gunning for the NBA playoffs.

The massive Miami Heat superstars took time out from practicing for this week's playoffs to show off their rock hard buff shirtless pecs, arms and abs on the beach in Miami this weekend.

Unfortunately, the A-list ballers will have to put on jerseys to battle the Indiana Pacers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals on Wednesday.

Dwyane Wade's latest move has come up short ... real short.

Wearing a high and tight expensive polka dot double-breasted suit that only Urkel could love, the Miami Heat star showed off some major ankle skin before playing the Chicago Bulls on Monday.

While the cropped pant look is a trend right now, the fashion plate baller should know manpris will always mess up your game.

Chris Bosh's wife Adrienne hit a Caribbean beach with their adorable 11-month-old son -- who was udderly overshadowed by his mom's booty-FILLED bikini.

Miami Heat star Chris Bosh may have had over $300K in watches and rings jacked from his home, but he's still got the family jewels ... his wife's bootyful bikini body.

Looking like a long lost Kardashian, Adrienne Bosh barely contained herself in a red two-piece as she showed off her buxom precious gems on the beach with her son in Puerto Rico this weekend.

She's making those crooks look like a giant ass.

Chris Bosh is missing $340k in jewelry ... after burglars struck his Miami home early this morning while the NBA star was out celebrating his birthday ... this according to police.

Miami Beach PD says Bosh called cops around 12:30 AM after he and his wife returned to their pad after partying at a nightclub in South Beach and noticed their house had been ransacked.

According to cops, Bosh noticed a jewelry drawer was open and several expensive items were missing -- including watches, rings and purses.

Fortunately, cops say the bad guys didn't take the Miami Heat star's NBA championship ring.

Cops say there was no sign of forced entry and they're currently trying to meet with anyone who has access to Bosh's home.

LeBron James has finally selected a WEDDING DATE ... which is great news ... for everyone except LeBron's Jewish friends ... 'cause it's all going down on Yom Kippur ... TMZ has learned.

We've obtained a copy of King James' "Save The Date" ... which instructs his friends to block out Friday Sept. 13 through Sunday Sept. 15 for the NBA star's destination wedding to fiancee Savannah Brinson in exotic San Diego, CA.

The "Save the Date" even came with a fun caricature of Bron, Savannah and their 2 children ... each dressed in their finest wedding outfits. Cute.

But here's the problem ... Sept. 13 is the beginning of Yom Kippur -- a high holy day in the Jewish religion in which Hebrews and Shebrews are supposed to fast for roughly 24 hours while praying their faces off in temple.

And for the record, James DOES have Jewish friends ... including the famous Rabbi Yishayahu Yosef Pinto (pictured below) ... a man known around New York as the "Rabbi to the Business Stars."

The good news ... LeBron will probably save a bunch of cash on the buffet.
The bad news ... he won't be able to brag about the savings to the people who would appreciate it.

Mazel Tov!!!

Lil Wayne says he's NOT SORRY for saying he banged Chris Bosh's wife ... claiming his only regret from his All-Star weekend rant was insulting his "homie" LeBron James.

Weezy called in to WEDR radio in Miami moments ago to address the video footage that surfaced of the rapper's All-Star weekend performance -- when he said, "F**k LeBron. F**k She Wade. F**k Chris Bosh. F**k all y'all."

And the zinger ... "I f**ked Chris Bosh wife."

But Wayne's not sorry for what he said -- telling the radio station, "I don’t apologize for that night. I don’t apologize for being who I am ... I don't take nothing back ... This is who I am."

But the refusal to apologize came with two caveats --

1) Wayne took back what he said about LeBron, saying "I didn't mean to say ['f**k LeBron.'] That's my homie."

2) Wayne apologized to the CITY of Miami for his outburst ... but he specifically did NOT apologize to the Miami Heat.

TMZ published the video ... showing Lil Wayne trashing the Heat and the NBA, claiming the Heat got him banned from all NBA events. During the radio interview, Wayne says the bad blood stemmed from a Heat-Lakers game last week, in which Dwyane Wade cussed him out for rooting for the Lakers. Wayne says things got heated from there ... and now he hates everyone ... except LeBron.

Lil Wayne's not the only one who's got beef with Dwyane Wade ... the Miami Heat star's also made an enemy of his ex-wife -- who's now accusing the basketball star of depriving their children of life-saving asthma medication.

Siohvaughn Wade just filed docs in their ongoing custody dispute, claiming Dwyane "has never obtained any asthma inhalers or asthma nebulizer machines for the children since [Dwyane] was awarded children in his custody on March 11, 2011."

Siohvaughn says the ex-couple's two kids both suffer from the condition and require constant supervision.

But according to the docs, "[Dwyane] recklessly failed to provide the five and ten-year-old children with any medication for a life-threatening illness."

Siohvaughn says Dwyane is putting their kids' lives in danger as a result -- and now, she wants a court to ORDER him to be more attentive ... as well as keep her apprised of the kids' medical treatment.

But it doesn't end there -- Siohvaughn also claims Dwyane's been screwing her out of parenting time ... "continuously and willfully making every effort to alienate the children from [her]."

She wants Dwyane prosecuted for visitation abuse.

Lil Wayne is a L-L-L-L-L-L-L-L-LIAR ... who FALSELY told fans he'd been banned from all NBA events ... this according to a league spokesperson.

NBA Senior Director of Basketball Communications Mark Broussard tells TMZ ... there is "no truth at all" to the claims Weezy made during a performance in Houston over the weekend.

Wayne had told the crowd the NBA had banned him from all events because of his beef with the Miami Heat organization, stemming from an incident last week ... when Wayne says he was kicked out of a Heat game for rooting for the Lakers. The Heat organization said Wayne left voluntarily.

During the rant, Wayne also said he had sex with Chris Bosh's wife.

Lil Wayne has ignited an all-out war with the Miami Heat by claiming he hooked up with Chris Bosh's wife. Anyone need 2 on the floor? 'Cause Weezy's old seats should be wide open!
