    Neither did golden state and they made it happen could have signed Howard and signed iggy.

    We just gotta move a few contracts

    If lebron wants to come here morey can make it happen... You guys acting like the finances don't work are uninformed.

    You can't get Lebron even in Fantasy basketball.

    Here's all that needs to happen:

    1. DWade suffers career ending injury.
    2. Rockets trade Lin and Asik for expiring contract, perhaps Gasol.
    3. Morey makes Ipad.

    Lmao..... Come on why would Lebron leave a team that has 2 superstRs + a decently we'll rounded team besides lack of true big C. If he left miami he would go to Cleveland and that's obvious as heck. If you have any common sense lebron will only have his career in Miami or Cleveland end if story. I think bish will also remain in Miami

    We couldn't get even a fair shot at healthy Bosh at that time.

    Why leave? Let the stars go to him. He's fixed his image in Miami, leaving will only ruin it. And the Heat management has shown it can identify the right players to surround Lebron.

    LeBron is staying in Miami, or going back to Cleveland to deliver that championship he promised them.

    Prime Michael Jordan or prime Lebron James?

    The answer may not be as obvious as it seems.

    Lebron can be our starting 4!!! Sike, from what the media has been releasing, it looks like he's probably going back to Cleveland or maybe staying in Miami.

    Morey is a wizard but I don't really see a scenario where Lebron would be legitimately interesting in signing with our team.

    I actually think Lebron could be the best center in the league if he chooses to play at the 5.
