That's because no other fanbase wants you. I tried pawning you off to the Lakers. But no go.

If the rumors are true that LBJ deal with Miami (if he signs back will be a 1 or 2 year deal with some opt out clause), we are better off letting him walk. I don't think the organization have time to go through this every other year.

I wouldn't give him an opt out next year.
I don't see a problem if its 2.
I doubt he ever gives any team, ever, more than 3.

Like I have been saying, this is another case of a diva just holding a team hostage. This clown is leaving the Heat out in the cold not knowing what he will do - The most unfortunate part is that is seems the Heat are allowing Lebron to toy with them when they could have made an impact in FA ALREADY.

You either want to stay on the team or you dont - make up your mind. The fucking guy cant live without the spotlight on him.

He choked far too much in the finals to have the spotlight on him so now he wants it in the off-season.



Choked in the Finals? He was the only good player we had. That is why he is weighing this decision.
Also, he's currently not a member of the Heat, so he can't hold them hostage.
Cavs fans and James haters said the same shit in 2010.

Very true and well said! Unlike Cleveland fans we have 4 Finals appearances and two rings to show for it, because he had much more than Lebron. He helped us win the championships, but it was not just because of him. No way he gets by the Spurs or Thunder (or even Pacers and Celtics before) without Wade and Bosh delivering. Further, one would argue that had he played his best in the 2011 finals we would have a 3rd ring. Wade played great in that one. Don't believe that even if Wade or Bosh play great in 2014 that we were beating that Spurs team with our poor PG play and with a hurt Birdman.

Chris Bosh is the Rockets Plan B if they dont get Melo

Nice to see these other teams having a Plan B if their initial plan doesnt work - Even nicer to see these other teams active during this period - while the Heat are sleep walking like they did this entire season.

I dont like what Lebron is doing either, but hes the best player on the planet. We have to stick with him until he decides. If he leaves then all bets are off. But till then he is a Heat and we have to play this game to try and keep him.

You can bet your ass the Riley has a plan B.
You can also bet he's not sharing it with anyone.

I wouldn't play it if you have to do it again next year.
Wade/Bosh taking a fair salary + cap space we have puts us right back into being tops in the EC,
IMO.
Especially if James went West, without a sign and trade.

If the Heat can get Morrow/Marvin Williams/Carter, Nelson, Booker/Humphries, & Boozer/Gasol, I think they did enough to improve the supporting cast

Gortat (Wizards), Kaman (Blazers), Hawes (Clippers).

Per Ira Winderman.

The Heat continue to miss out on players that can potentially help in some form or another as they wait on the Diva James circus... King James continues to act like a Queen this off-season

We were never going to get Gortat. His price tag was way too steep. But Lebron has put the Heat in a no-win situation.

Gortat was too expensive. Hawes was not going to happen as using the mid-level exception on him is not a priority. His style of play is like Bosh. You really going to spend a bunch of money on Kaman which Birdman played two straight years at the minimum and probably deserves more? Look...the key for us will be a strong perimeter player or two and a back up center with Birdman or we go with youth.

According to CBS news' Ken Berger, Chris Bosh is open to leave the Heat for 4 year max contract elsewhere....TIFWIW....and so it gets even more interesting.

We'll be fine without Bosh if we replace him with Pau
