By the way, one of my associates said he watched about 10 minutes of last nights game.....and had to turn it off! Couldn't stand looking at a close up of a guy who was the product of sex with a Parrot!

....Wade is a Chicago boy, my home town.....and he's tattooless! The later makes him a fine role model and example for the league!

I'm actually also extremely impressed by wade as a person. Did y'all now the despite having a job that keeps him on the road six-nine months a year and living in the public spotlight, that he has full custody of his kids? I think that's pretty impressive.

The bottom line is that in the NBA, guys that can create shots (for others but especially themselves) have a disproportionate advantage over their peers, and the Spurs best options there (Parker, Ginobili) were hardly effective. The Spurs took the Heat to 7 games in the NBA finals with very little playmaking on the perimeter. Gary Neal and Danny Green over the course of the series were as good or better and they can't do much with the ball. And you can't just dump the ball into the post as the post is much easier to stop.

Getting back to the point, give a detailed game-plan about how the Spurs do a better job in the half-court with no playmaking on the perimeter and against one of the best defenses in the NBA. I'm sure the great minds of the NBA will be floored with the genius of it.

....look! The Spurs won 4 Titles dumping it in to Duncan and playing team ball! They were thisclose to winning this series if not for a series of coaching blunders by the genius Popovich and a missed free throw here and there! It's true, with the rule change of allowing flagrant palming and carrying of the ball, "creating" your own shot has now become a major advantage especially when you add speed and quickness to that equation! However, the game is still a TEAM sport! Miami actually accomplished that by being unselfish and in fact, having more assists than even the Spurs had! Indiana took the Heat to a 7th game by also dumping the ball into the post. Memphis buys into that same system. Heck, if the Jazz had a center without hands of stone....we'd be talking about BOTH of the championships Stockton and Malone would have won....despite all the athletic ability of Jordan and the Bull's!

If by "completely backfired" you mean "obviously slowed him down for 5.5 games and almost stole an NBA finals from the best player since MJ" then yes, I completely agree.

Sometimes guys make shots. If your choice is giving the most insane physical specimen and versatile talent the league has ever seen (it's not really even close) open shooters, an open lane to the basket because he blows by you, or shooting off-the-dribble 20+ footers, you give him the latter and hope it works. And it did for 5.5 games.

...you forgot to add: "giving the most insane physical specimen with quickness and speed the advantage of also palming the ball.....your going to give him the outside jumpshot and hope he misses more than he makes!" Actually, that's true with alot of players in todays NBA. I'm surprised they had as much success staying in front of him even when they backed off 6-8 feet!

...hey, maybe "AKMVP" could give us an artist conception of what the "evolved" birdflu might look like in, oh, about 50,000 years from now.....or is that not enough time for further "change?"

Back to Cleveland? I think that is the absolute very last place he'd go, and that's even if the NBA creates an expansion team in Siberia.

It was a bitter break-up.

It was. But it's not as bad as it was a few years ago. Time can heal all wounds. Besides...

They wouldn't take him back if he showed interest? Are Cleveland fans really so excited over this... Kyrie Irving era?

I personally don't think he will leave Miami. I've heard rumors of LA or Cleveland. I think he will stay in Miami.
 
Where does the 8 year rebuild come from? And what is "rebuilding?" Couldn't the Celtics pre-Big 3 be considered a "rebuilding" team? What about Kobe's Lakers before they obtained Pau Gasol? Or the Heat before they obtained LBJ and Bosh?
 
I could see LeBron ending up in LA with the Clippers (If Chris Paul stays).CP & LBJ are close friends. They could have Paul, LBJ & Griffin. Which is probably better than LBJ/Wade/Bosh

I don't think this team could work. There is a reason he has never played with a pg who was anything better than mediocre
