true true.. Its just that being in memphis revitalized Z-Bo's career. I think being there means alot to him.
Plus his plug is down there -
Gotta laugh at the art of responding to the shot indirectly

cap space ? -
If team's were ready made then they'd have been then the Finals already, no? If not there, or even anywhere close, then why would Lebron going to a squad and putting them into the championship conversation be frowned upon. Would that not say something about his greatness? Or does the fact that it's in a different jersey magically change things?
Some ppls "criticism" makes no sense.
SMH.................
I'm going to go out on a limb and say you are an adult so you should understand the logic of somebody standing for something or always running when things get tough.
If this guy leaves another team (especially this Miami team that isn't that bad) when things start getting bad then this will really shape how a lot of young impressionable minds think they should do things. They will think it's okay to quit if things are not 100% stacked in your favor, I mean look at the league now in general. Guys are just running away from their responsibility as being the best players on the team. They are quick to throw there teammates and coaches under the bus, they don't want to just win by any cost, they want to win their way, they don't want to lead and the people who do try to lead they don't want to listen to them.
I understand and wasn't even mad at the guy for leaving Cleveland because they squandered that dudes talent and loyalty for 7 seasons but if he leaves this Miami team which still has a legit All-Star caliber player in Bosh and a solid even if he is aging rapidly Wade then he will come off as a coward in my eyes. It isn't like there roster is barren of talent in Miami and they have a good GM and location to attract talent. -

Well if Blatche chooses to go elsewhere that opens up some space for us. Unless they throw the boat at Livingston presumably.... -

I'm an adult and I understand what a contract is. I also understand that Lebron's business decisions are Lebron's business decisions, and he doesn't have any obligation to consider any of those [bold] things you mentioned. For anyone to think that's his problem is idiotic.
If he Is who I think he is he'll look for the best opportunity to win going forward. If a contract allows you to opt out why would you, a person widely regarded as the best at what you do, not do so and analyze your options? If he buys into another team's vision/potential going forward he has no obligation to "stick it out" with the team he played for last year.
So if he doesn't manage his career how you want him to he's a coward. Ok. Players with the opportunity to find what they feel is the best situation for themselves shouldn't do so? Ok.
Miami very well could be the best situation for him, depending on what the other current Max players do. Nothing wrong with keeping options open to let certain things play out.
The way his career progresses is not based on some arbitrary set of rules that illogical people want to impose on him. The ? would he care if some "fan" thought he was a "coward." The bottom line is putting himself in what he feels is the best position to win.
"Oh he had to go to different teams to do it"
Would he not be the best player on each different team? Would he not be leading the pack in whatever situation he chooses?

Heat trying to move up in the draft. Norris Cole would be involved in the trade.

@#1hiphopjunki3 I got a question
Say the bulls don't get melo or love and build their team like the spurs model.By adding depth wit shooters/scorers(gordon hayward,pau gasol) with the cap space they'd have by amnestying ? ,the 2 draft picks,bringing over the euro do you think they'd have what it takes to get to the finals by doin that? -

Anthony Davis put on 18 pounds,is expanding his jumper range and working on more post moves.After playing this past season at less than 230 pounds, Davis said he is up to 237 pounds. The new physique gives Davis the look more of a power forward than he did in his first two NBA seasons.Davis is working on adding the corner 3-point shot, more post move and a pull-up jumper off the dribble to his repertoire.
It's about to get UGLY for the league -

They get Shabazz that is a step in the right direction and I think it means Chalmers is out of Miami IMO. Playing Pg with LeBron basically means you have to be able to score on spot ups and iso's with little left on the clock. Shabazz can do that and be ready to contribute in no time. He is Kemba with a better perimeter game. -
