By now everyone who has ever watched a TV knows that Lebron James (number 1 on the Big Board) and Chris Bosh (number 4) joined Dwyane Wade (number 2) in Miami to form a potential super team. James and Bosh signed 6 year, $110 million deal and Wade got 6 years, $107 million. I'm not going to waste my time here. Obviously if you can sign two of the four best players in the league in addition to a top 15 guy (Bosh), you do it. That's an A+ and a total coup for Miami. At the same time, though, they have no money left and eight players under contract, including Mike Miller and their three second round picks. Now the Heat will be looking for seven (or more) guys who are willing to play for nothing. That's a tall order. Plus, Miami will be the most hated team in the league by just about everyone involved with the NBA. Fans, owners, scouts, players, whatever. "The Decision" special on ESPN has brought about a severe backlash against Lebron James and his self-indulgence and his image as a superior basketball player will now take a tremendous hit. Hope it works out. Actually, I don't. I hope this is the biggest disaster in the history of basketball and wish nothing but failure upon Lebron, Wade, Bosh, Pat Riley, and the entire Heat franchise. The way Lebron handled this is fitting considering he's now signed on with Pat Riley, the most narcissistic, back stabbing tool who has ever walked an NBA sideline. Have fun with that.
Grade: A+
