I wonder what Miami does now. In the last couple days, the Heat received verbals from two of the Big 3 in the 2010 NBA free agency class ..... Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh.
LeBron James just announced to a national ESPN audience his intention to leave Cleveland and join the other two in South Beach. That announcement was supposed to answer the biggest question since Who Shot J.R.?
But I have more questions that are yet to be answered.
One: Who is going to get how much money and will all 3 be happy? There is a salary cap so the Heat will have to journey into the Land of Luxury Tax or one or maybe more of the South Beach Boys will have to take less than their market value.
Two: Will LeBron be happy not being "The Guy?" The Heat have the incumbent and fan-favorite Wade and Bosh, who previously said he wanted to be the centerpiece of the franchise, not a piece.
Three: Will there be enough shots to keep all three happy? 'Nuff said there.
Four: Who can the Heat afford to get to fill out the roster? Most likely they will be minimum contract guys. Michael Beasley is probably gone so they have a little more room for the A1A Alliance. All they have left, in reality, is Mario Chalmers. That leads me to the next question .....
Five: Will the Miami Three be enough to lead the Heat to an NBA title? With a roster of minimum contract guys, James and Co. (or is it Wade and Co.?) will probably have to play 42 or 43 minutes a game. They are going to be tired when the post-season comes around. What do they do to combat that?
It's going to be interesting.
