    One thing looking at this Heat team. They are better and they SHOULD be. I don't care how deep is your bench. You have two BEST players in the NBA and you add an AllStar.

    They are gonna win championships, maybe even more than 1 or 2. But it is about how they are gonna win. Really, the game is so easy for them but hell see who they have.

    Still, no matter how many rings they win they will always have that in the back on their minds. Wade knows it cause he won it by HIMSELF (allright he had older Shaq)

    But LeBron is still a complete loser in my eyes. How can you do that. You're EASILY the best in tthe NBA and to join Wade and Bosh is just completly WEAK.

    Because you need more then one superstar to win in todays NBA.
    Plus playing with you friends, would be a pretty cool thing to do.

    this year is the only year the heat should not win a ring b/c of the time/chemistry... if they win a ring this year, expect a 4 or 5-peat

    Lebron will still be right in his prime when his current contract is up. Guy still has a lot of games left to play. We'll have to see what he does then.

    You just don't do moves like that. Really. Jordan said it all. James had a chance to become the next Jordan because he is a real freak but this one decision rules him out. Period.

    Maybe knee-jerk, maybe not but I'd agree with this. Of course not my original prediction but Boston takes one at home, Miami gets the other, come back to Miami and finish it off.

    If Boston loses this series, what do you do next? Do you become the Spurs of the East or rebuild?

    if he puts up the stats and gets the MVPs with those rings (i'm assuming 4+), you don't think he'll go down as a top 2-3 player of all time?

    it only hurts lebron if his stats take a huge dip. he's only 26.

    It was a quietly dominating performance by the Heat, but I'm not counting the Celtics out just yet. Something's off with their starting lineup right now, health and chemistry-wise, but they could very well find their mojo again back in Boston.

    People thought Boston problems were over because they swept the Knicks.

    That series was nothing but fools gold.
