    Lebron is only 25, and that is the key. They can build around that Him, no matter what

    I think I will stick to simply watching the Rockets games for the coming years.
    I think I will avoid all heat games. I think the Reffing will be ridiculous.

    I think they're still really, really weak at the 1 and the 5. I wants AB and Yao to destroy them.

    Oh wow, you're right. Wade by himself free-threw his way to a championship.

    Now with LeCrab on the team?

    We are in for some interesting spectacles.

    what? wade is a very good passer, probably up around the tmac level of passing (all the way up to the end, tmac could still pass), and lebron is one of the best passing wings of all time. the fact that neither is a great 3 point shooter could leave them fewer options to pass to and might be the primary problem they will have to focus on in developing their offense, but both are excellent creators.

    how many posts about the refs/stern/the league fixing/having fixed things (whether it be reffing, tampering, trades, etc) for the Heat are you going to make?

    i don't know why people are afraid of dwight. the heat will (or should) single cover him and dare him to score 35+ pts every night, which he hasn't been able to do.

    the heat's main competition will be boston due to their experience and defensive tenacity. but again, they cannot double/triple lebron or wade anymore and both will explode v. the celtics.

    in the west, it will be the lakers. right now, the heat lack the size to battle the lakers. they wouldn't be able to beat the lakers right now b/c gasol, bynum, and odom would destroy the boards v. the heat. but the roster can change for te heat.

    but really, if the heat stack a lineup of lebron, wade, miller, and bosh, who is going to match up with lebron for the lakers? artest can't handle lebron anymore (as indicated by last season's reg. season games).

    but it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

    PS - lebron is only 25. even when wade declines or others fall off, you still have lebron james there. he's the best building piece in the L and he's like pat riley's inusrance card.

    not just the heat, about any team (lakers, boston...). he should just follow another sport to make it easy on himself.

    ok.... wade is not an elite passer.... lebron is very good but not elite
    I said it.... at stage of their career both are better finishers than passers
    In comparison
    lol....

    I am avoiding any thread that involve the Heat......they have almost taken over my hate on Utah Jazz.

    depends on what passes
    Tmac could string a 30 meter pass from the backcourt to the freethrow line of the other end.

    HAhahahahahahahaha.....

    You mean like how ex-rockets players got shoe deals in China through Yao?

    None of you haters would be whining like this if we got Lebron, Wade, and Bosh.
