OK they got LeBron, Wade, Bosh Haslem and Chalmers.....I think Beasley may be gone.....to get some cash to pay for the filler crew. The players I think Pat Riley will workout include: Eric Snow, Eric Williams Chris Webber Allen Iverson Jay Williams Damon Jones Motombo Reggie Miller Antoine Walker Rasheed Wallace anybody else?? This will be the most hated team in the usa since the Bad Boys of 1989
LOL @ anthony goldwire. Id like to add will blalock to the list... they are gonna need a "3 point specialist"
Depends on how many calls they get. Miami is not a huge city so if they go to the line every time someone breathes on them it will not go down too well. Someone Wade or Lebran is going to have to give up the scoring thrown. They say nice things now but I don't know. Bosh is also more of a fineese player so they will be soft in the middle. Could be the classic example of glass jaw type bit. Interesting experiment at any rate. "The Decision" has been made and we are all witnesses. My guess - 3/4 of all NBA fans are sick of the hype before the season even begins.
I'm okay with this decision, because I'm in favor of anything that marginalizes LeBron to any degree.
i'm sorry!!! i'm laughin cuz somewhere Izzo is dancing a jig!!Also, at least they can resign Shaq!cleveland rocks!!!
Other things to ponder Will Pat Riley assume coaching responsibilities if they are only 25-20 at the all star break.? Will Wade play a more than 60 games without getting injured? Since they don/t have a center, will they bring back Shaq who will try to match Kobies rings or will they consider going fully exploited and sign Lisa Leslie as their center? For team that has at most 5-6 players, why does ESPN project a 66-16 record? Will Delonte West sneak down to Miami to see Lebron's mama?
Let me make a prediction. LeBron leaving Cleveland will be like Ben Wallace Leaving the Pistons. LeBron will suffer the same emotional let down as Ben did. Bron Bron will not be happy in his new digs. This for many reasons. First off...he immediately loses the League wide love that he enjoyed the past few seasons, as a potential player in many cities. Secondly...he'll miss Cleveland more than anybody realizes. My wins prediction for Miami next season is 47. Plus...Imagine what this does to Cleveland.
This past season they were 2nd, 4th and 6th (LBJ, Wade Bosh) in FTA.. so you are right...if they are forced to play 45 mins a game, the refs will help them out in bogus fouls to give them a blow...and assure that they win enough games to get to the finals for that Laker or Thunder matchup
If I was Lebron's fiancee, I would be extremely worried. Not many relationships or marriages can withstand all that heat in Miami. SMH
The only person at that age that would be able to take the floor and be relevant is Rufus Henry. I'm ashamed of all of you for sleeping on the legend.
