    Overhyped. Other than Wade, and Haslem, no toughness. Missing Haslem's toughness. No frontline. Wade, for allowing Lehype to be the team leader when Wade needs to be.

    No bench, no point guard, no center, and an overrated PF who is soft. Lebron and Wade can't do everything.

    Bosh not a good fit.
    Could have saved his 14 mil a year and waited for another star to become available or gotten 2-3 players whose combination far outweighs Bosh.

    The clowns who blame LeBron are clueless. As with Cleveland, this team doesn't do nearly as well without him.

    The supporting cast lacks a true superstar. It has plagued teams led by Lebron for his whole career.

    If Lebron needs a better bench, maybe he should forfeit his salary and play for a buck a year

    They have some roster issues. They could use upgrades at the PG and C position, particularly the center position since Chris Bosh is a jumpshooting PF. Haslem could help with some toughness, but they also need an interior presence to protect the basket at the defensive end since the perimeter players gamble for steals.

    I also think strategically on offense, they need better schemes where the role players can get involved a little more. It's tough for some role players to stay focused when they get so few touches. But now you're not just talking about either LeBron or Wade but if one isn't going into isolation, it's the other. Role players need some courtesy touches to get their rhythm. And I think that's a big part of the problem late in close games. Teams really start to collapse on LeBron and Wade and force them into passing and the other guys just aren't in rhythm at the end of the game and you ask guys to hit important shots when they've hardly touched the ball the whole game. The one thing about the triangle is that at least it allows for all players to get touches here in there throughout the game. Even with a ballhog like Kobe, role players get touches.

    But more than anything, I think it's mentality and a lack of confidence. The Heat still have a great deal of talent, especially top end talent. They're good enough to be legitimate le contenders this year, even with the holes they have at PG, C, and seemingly the bench. Other than the Spurs loss, most of these losses to good teams are close games and they're in position to win, even having big leads in the second half. I think the losses have piled up and damaged their collective confidence. I think that's as big of an issue as any strategic problem or roster make-up problem right now.

    I voted something else. Look, the Heat just aren't going all out. They aren't focused and they aren't giving consistent effort. That is why they have all these close games and find away to keep giving them away. That is the scary thing. If/When this team finally decides to give a , no one will beat them in a series. It is all up to the heat players themselves. They can only stop themselves from winning the le this year and several years after. They have all the right pieces...superstars, clutch role players, elite D,a damn good coach who is testing his players, depth and versatility.
