    More to that, Nash would be seen as the leader over Lebron.

    LeBron, how many superstars/stars do you need along side you to win a NBA title?

    Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven, not eight,...

    LeBron, how many titles will you win without those superstars/stars?

    Not eight, not seven, not six, not five, not four, not three, not two, not even one!

    :p

    If I were the heat I'd be trading Bosh and getting some quality role players around Wade and Lebron.

    Bosh is an also-ran on the heat. The heat need that money to fill out the team.

    I think it's always been okay for players to talk about other players and not be tampering. It's when you talk about other players playing on your team when you are a team executive is when you get in trouble.

    Being a lockout, they can't even have contact with players.

    No it's okay to talk to players if they are free agents.. but if they are from another team, you players cannot talk about coming to their teams...
    but the lockout kills all these rules..

    I really think the heat should try like one more year to see if they can reach AT LEAST the final four again....

    If they don't see that they can get over the hump trade bosh. I would say lebron because its better to have a big and small combo, but lbj should never be traded due to his skill. Since wade is the franchise guy, i would trade bosh for great players.. Denver basically got a starting lineup for melo, and with bosh, I think the heat could get the same level of players (not as many, or the same amount but less talent). I think that with two superstars and great players, the heat have a better chance to win

    Well in Lebron's defense, fans tweeted him about these players and how they would look in a Heat uni, and he just responded.

    No. You can tell on twitter when someone is responding to a tweet. He did respond to a fan a few days ago about getting Crawford on the Heat…

    ...but today’s tweets were just on his own.


    Gotta give it to you, though, you’re a very devoted fan. :)

    Well I don't follow Lebron's twitter. I just read a realgm account that he responded to a fan's tweet. But apparently, you're more up to date than me.

    If Lebron did do that, then it's just stupid.

    EDIT: apparently KD tried to do the same and recruit FAs to come to OKC, but he stopped b/c he knew those players wouldn't want to come to OKC. Sucks. Imagine DH in OKC. Damn.

    If Nash controls the ball... what does Lebron actually do? Play defense and make hustle plays?

    Hahah Lebron are you serious, the guy just wants a championship, no matter what. He thinks that will shut everyone up, but if Nash goes to the Heat, that will only cause more talk and disdain.

    Those guys won't take a cut to join up the Superfriends. I really hope it doesn't happen.

    bingo.

    Heat need more blue collar guys that D up, crash boards, and are dead eye shooters. You've got your creators with Wade and LeBron. Bosh is already a terrible fit, and teams are catching on that clogging the lane with defenders is effective. Nash, and especially Crawford would just make the Heat's problems worse.

    Nash controls the ball while Lebron spaces the floor and does spot up shooting. Problems solved.

    We really need to do a sarcasm font like RealGM, because I really can't tell if this is.

    This makes me wonder about lebron's hoop IQ and if he gets what cohesiveness means on the court. First he goes with Dwayne wade, neither of them are spot up shooters so they don't spread the court for eachother and thus have to take turns rather than really making each other better.

    Now, crawford, I get he is a shooter, but he is also a creator and better with the ball in his hands.

    Nash, I don't get it. He can shoot lights out, but he is also best penetrating and with the ball in his hands. He is not good defensively as well. What they need is someone who can shoot 3s, spread the court, and hold his own defensively. Nash needs the ball in his hands to create and do what makes him special, as does wade, as does lebron.

    Does he not understand how itworks in constructing ateam?

    Perhaps that is why Cleveland choked as it was said that he had a large input in every move the cavs made.

    The Heat team employing the Rick Adelman offense would be absolutely deadly. While LeBron and Wade aren't Ray Allen-esque.. if they are given wide-open shots they can hit them.
