SuperMan is only Joining Batman and robin!!!
seriously this got needs to go to the knicks, i wanna see a rivalry where the east is not a walk in the park for the rich teams loaded with players..
at leasts the bulls, heat and celtics, magic...we need knicks to be in teh equation..we dont want a lopsided team in the east only
no, Rockets need those Knicks picks
Can't wait to see Amare pick and roll with Toney D, huge downgrade from Nash
One thing for sure.......if this is true, we know what the NBA showcase game will be Xmas day: Heat at Lakers
This would be exciting to have 2.5 megastars on one team though I don't think they're contenders overnight-they would need to make some moves in order to compete with a team like the Lakers. But on the other hand, I wouldn't mind seeing him on a team like Chicago or stay w/Cleveland-I think it would be more interesting to spread the talent about...have 4-5 good teams vs one megateam.
I really feel for Cleveland-how devastating if he leaves.....what becomes of that team......
You forgot the sweetest of all
The Celtics almost took LA out in 2010
I disagree.
I think it would be easier for LeBron to play with Wade and Bosh if it were at New Jersey or New York because then, none of the three would already have the connection Wade has with Miami and Miami Heat fans. Bosh doesn't mind being a second banana. But that's not LeBron. That's not his ego. LeBron could be the best player of the three, put up the best stats of the three, win the Finals MVP, but the Miami Heat will still be Wade's team. That's why I have a problem believing LeBron will end up in Miami. LeBron cannot create a true legacy on Dwyane Wade's team.
I could be wrong, but I think even if he said he's going to Miami to Wade and Bosh and people close to him, I think he's going to have a change of heart last minute. He could never be known as the greatest ever playing on someone else's team. I think his ego keeps him from going down there.
These "leaks" create more drama. If he now says Cleveland everyone will gasp and applaud him.
scared
son that is a very good point and true ... it creates for a wonderful storyline and like you said, if he chooses Cleveland people will applaud his "loyalty". you would be foolish to think that Vince McMahon and his lead writers over there at the WWE haven't been in close contact with Stern. I wouldn't be surprised if this "The Decision" show was McMahon's idea.
I definitely see your angle, but this is pro sports we're talking here. Fairweather and casual fans make up the majority of the fanbase. If LeBron truly led them to a le, and Wade/Bosh were definitely the sidekicks however badass of sidekicks they may be, I don't think Heatfan would have any trouble crowning LeBron, so to speak; especially with the MM shoving this new dream team down our throats every second. And I know I am one to always say, the people don't GAF about the who is top dog as long as the team is winning.
Well... Jarred Dudley and Dejuan Blair both tweeted that it'll be the New York Knicks, so there's some fuel to add to the fire.
good point..thats why z0sa thinks Kobe's 5 rings is legit!
So, the leak that he's going to Miami is being used to soften the blow for Cleveland when he goes to the Knicks? I would think it would be the other way around. If I were a Cleveland fan I could understand why he wanted to play with Wade and Bosh and win championships. Going to New York would indicate that James is more worried about his brand.
This process with the Three Stooges sickens me. If Miami ends up with all three of the top free agents, the NBA has been damaged as a viable product for years to come.
Ever since 2003, the players from that draft class have been coddled and overrated - they have very little success to show for it.
Miami might be the Worst Sports Town in America and I wish nothing but failure for the Heat - even if Drama Queen James doesn't go to Miami.
I guess ESPN will produce a do entary about the amazing exploits of the 2010 Miami Heat.
Let the circus begin at 9PM eastern time tonight. I won't be watching the "Worldwide Leader in Sports" I guarantee you that.

If he joins the Heat, my respect for him will go way up.
If he cares about winning, he'll choose Miami.
If he cares about building a billion-dollar LeBron brand and having the spotlight/being the man, he'll choose NY.
i think lebron will be fine going down in history with bosh and wade. none of the two stars are bigger than lebron, the 2x MVP. it's not like kobe and shaq, where shaq was the obvious superstar the first 3peat or jordan and pippen. if the heat win, this will be a pierce/garnett/allen legacy rather than a kobe piggybacking on shaq kind of thing. the player than wins finals mvp will probably get a little more credit like pierce but in the end all three players will be equally important.
Those vet mins could be pretty good players. Think about how many players will want to play with "the Huge 3."
If there is, Orlando probably reached it already.
I swear, every Magic game was nationally televised.
The Kobe haters care. Accorrding to their criteria any le for Miami would not be a full le for Lebron, Wade, or Bosh since they have their Shaq and/or Gasol in the others. MJ's GOAT legacy would prevail even if LBJ won 8 in a row with a cast like that.
Not surprised.. probably already in the play before the ency started.
yah thats right...both Wade and Bosh are ringless like Lebron.

the trolling has begun
Ha! That one was pretty good.
i don't know if the heat can win next year with a bunch of minimum players coming off the bench but they will spend five years together with five years worth of MLE's.
