The Heat were one of the oldest rosters in the league, Cavs one of the youngest. KLove will be the deciding factor, if can get him. Kyrie, Love, and LBJ is easily the best trio.

Love > Bosh
Kyrie right now can score will the best of him. DWade can still play, I'm not saying that, but over a full season no. He can't even do it over the whole playoffs. But he is still a beast, I'm not denying that.




He had a shit series, but a very solid playoffs leading up to it.
I agree there is more upside in Kyrie down the road, but next year, and probably the year after, I'll gladly take Wade.

Just think, if James goes to the Cavs, Kyrie can be remembered as the best 'superstar' to earn that title by never having appeared in a playoff game and leading his team to the lowest win % in the NBA since he joined that team.

All I know is if LeBron leaves, I would be done with him if I'm wade

If that happens and I'm Wade, I'd sign with Chicago and try like hell to get in the best shape possible just to go at Lebron and Cleveland. Chicago has the better team than Miami and he's already lost millions anyway so might as well go home. Would never happen but it'd be fun to watch

I think it would be such a bitch move to have 2 of the top 3 opt out to give the team more flexibility and take less than what they would've paid if they didn't opt out only to leave the team. Especially in Wade situation because obviously he's not going to get that money nowhere else due over 2 yrs due to his injury concern

Yeah, people hear names like McBob and Granger and want to scoff, but Miami made it to the Finals with lesser roleplayers like Battier and Lewis last year. It's an improvement for sure.

Exactly. Miami problem isn't in the top 3. It was more with the role players as they needed more production and also needed to get younger.

As I said before if he's not sold on what the Heat have done so far, he should've been notified them he will not be coming back since he opted out because what the heat are doing isn't a surprise. No way could the Heat have gone out there and acquired guys like Ariza, Gasol, Deng, or Lowry with the big 3 coming back unless one of them wanted to take the MLE

You can't have your cake & eat it too. You can't expect to get the max contract, play with Bosh/Wade, and still have great role players.





If Riley left the meeting thinking he lost James, then why would he keep quiet?
Why would Wade stay quiet?
Why would Bosh not have already left?


I read James still has no planned meeting with the Cavs.
He's scheduled to leave for Brazil/ China in the next couple of days.

The whole thing is getting very confusing, which is exactly what I think he wants it to be.

I tell you, James is returning to Miami and Cleveland is going to look like a fool chasing after James like a chicken with no head.

Mike miller to Denver



Let's wait and see on that one.
Same people said Mike to Ok City last year on the same night I said Memphis.

As of this afternoon it was Cavs or Ok City.

Maybe that changed, but I doubt it.

I once again like your thinking.

Bosh opted out. Miami doesnt have to resign him. If lbj wants melo, then man up and tell Bosh. You dont have to sign him even if he wants to come back. He opted out.

Don't think it was just James' idea. And walhat anout Bosh, nobody is talking about him. He can still sogn with the Heat, is he bitching out too.
