Mightest well Call the NBA the Miami Basketball Association... What a joke, although it's nice to see Dwayne Wade will probably win the next 5 of 6 titles..

I'm not too sure about that. Yeah, I think the Heat will win a title or two, but maybe not immediately. At least to me, it seems like it will turn into a McNabb/Owens situation. I expect implosion.

Re: Anybody else excited about NBA free Agency?
Well, maybe that's a bad analogy as there are no players on the heat with T.O. like attitude problems. I know, I'm an Eagles fan. But yeah, there' will definitely be a falling out, just not nearly as soon as a team like the Eagles or the 04 Lakers. I'll give it 4 or 5 years before it goes to shit.Luke wrote:I'm not too sure about that. Yeah, I think the Heat will win a title or two, but maybe not immediately.

With the financial problems the NBA faces, there may be a long lockout during the 2011-2012 season... This along with no salary cap for this season are why players are being signed for ridiculously high contracts... Joe Johnson got 6 years and $120 millon, Rudy Gay got 5 years and $85 Million, Brendan Heywood got 6 years and $55 million and even Darko "the bust" Milicic got like a 5 year 20 million dollar contract.. Guys are wanting huge contracts now because they aren't even sure about the NBA's future..

Re: Anybody else excited about NBA free Agency?
The good news if your a Bulls fan like myself is that we will probably win the Central division now that Lebron is gone. 

Re: Anybody else excited about NBA free Agency?
You might be right, but I respectfully disagree. Wade and James have huge attitude problems and ego issues. If you don't think what James just pulled ("The Decision" on espn) showed attitude, then we'll just have to agree to disagree. The guy is an egomaniac.IIICCCPIII wrote: Well, maybe that's a bad analogy as there are no players on the heat with T.O. like attitude problems. I know, I'm an Eagles fan.

Well, I think that Lebron and T.O. are both narcissists, but I think LeBron takes responsibility better than T.O. Terrell was always the first to point the finger, while even if LeBron wants to blame failures on other players or circumstances, he at least pretends to shoulder the blame, which already looks better for lebron. I do agree that they're both dicks, but LeBron isn't in the same hemisphere as T.O. I had to watch/hear about T.O. every week ruining my team. there's a difference between arrogance and just being a baby. Maybe if LeBron keeps failing in the playoffs, he will resort to acting like a baby.Luke wrote:You might be right, but I respectfully disagree.

So I can definitely see where you're coming from with LeBron, however, as for you saying Wade has Attitude/Ego problems, I definitely disagree with you there. Respectfully, but yeah, I've watched Wade for a while, and I think he's pretty damned humble for someone who has as much money and talent as he does. He's no Dwight Howard or Tim Duncan but he's definitely not a kobe or lebron type to me.
I'm straying from the point, tho. The team will definitely implode, but the question is how soon, and will Miami win a title or two before it does.
I think they'll win 1, and exactly one. And let me reiterate that Lebron has lost cool points with me, as I have always admired the City of cleveland, and their pure hatred for Detroit (who I also hate) So I feel for them, and I hope Delonte bangs lebrons mom a couple more times.

Not so fast my friend...
but in all seriousness I thought Lebron's best situation would of been going to the Bulls and having Derrick Rose and a good nucleus, but I guess this 3-some down in Miami has been in the works for awhile now.
