Title: LeBron James to Miami
Post by: Viper_Fujax on July 08, 2010, 05:58:28 PM
I dont really follow basketball anymore, but lebron is one of the few players i watch
Yesterday i thought hed stay in cleveland till all the analysts were saying miami.
Not being a fan of any team, im kind of excited to see three big players on the same team..even more than the celtics since I didnt really know paul pierce and ray allen/garnett are a little older than these 3.
might be tempted to get nba2k11

yeah miami is stacked - don\'t forget they have beasly too who is a young up and coming player
this has the makings of a dynasty... now all they need is a center
on another subject, is there a more depressing sports city than Cleveland?

Beasly is gone to make room in the salary cap for a 2nd round pick in 2011.
The heat literally have 2 years of NBA experience in the 4 other players they have right now besides Lebron, Wade and Bosh. Right now they aren\'t a championship team, but it could change depending on who they bring in with the limited money they have left.
I\'m not a big NBA follower, and I\'m not fan of Cleveland. But the way Lebron handled this whole situation was disgusting. One of the most pointless and selfish things I\'ve seen in a while. How do you keep your old team completely in the dark, then hold an hour long special to announce that you\'re stabbing them in the back? Completely unprofessional. Never before have I see something this ridiculous from a free agent in any sport. Do it the way everyone else does it, announce it and have it show up on the bottom line. Don\'t be a prick about it.
I hope he never wins a ship now.

Agree. That show was horrible. Makes me realize even more how little I care about basketball. The money they pay these guys to throw a ball through a circle is stupid.

It was a bit over the top....and not saying anything to your team at all is kinda harsh....but fans burning his jerseys and sayin\' he betrayed them need to get a life...it\'s a business and this guy gave them seven years....seems pretty loyal to me...
Wasn\'t one of his former teammates smashin\' his mom\'s or some s**t? donte\' west i think it was...maybe he was still "heated" over that....:D
