I think the general public and the media just hate arrogance more than anything else, and the Miami 'lets throw a victory parade in July before we ever played a game together' Heat are one of the most arrogant teams in the history of sport

I think the intorduction thing is way overblown. It was done for the local fans and they really enjoyed it. Not sure why they should care about what bitter fans and media from other places think.
Arrogance to me is having the NBA trophy tattooed on your arm prior to winning the title. If Lebron had done that he would have been vilified but because it was done by pothead and part time mediocre player Jason Terry nobody said anything about it.
