They are all good friends, they will build plenty of chemistry lol.
They all want a title, if they didn't they wouldn't pair up cause they know their stats will drop.
Nah Bosh and Wade know their stats will drop lol. LeBron gets his Regardless lol.

Either way, no team could really match with all 3 of those.
You could stop one, or shut him down. But all 3 is just insane.

We'll see I guess. and Yeah if LeBron chooses the Heat or Cavs then the Knicks and Nets both pretty much got screwed.

Knicks at least got Amare.
They can get Melo and Parker next year I suppose, whereas NJ won't get <Censored>.

you guys realize the West sucks now?

Thunder are up and coming I guess, but they cant beat the Lakers.

Utah? Lakers swept them WITH Booz. he's gone
Suns? lucky they got to the WCF. gave the Lakers a little ride, but Amare is gone, nash is almost done.
Mavs? they're good, but can they beat the lakers? no
Spurs? Duncan is almost done and as of now, dont have enough
Nuggets? no. Chauncey is starting to age, Kenyon is a ?, in fact, too many ?'s and a cheap owner
Houston can be pretty good next year. im anticipating Scola back and Yao too from injury, but they cant beat the Lakers
Portland can be good too

then who?
Hornets? no.
Clippers, Wolves, Kings, W's, Grizz

but none of these teams even come close to the Lakers as of now. not even in the same ball park

You're right, no one can beat the Lakers. They will go 82-0.

After moving Beasley and signing Lebron, they will have a grand total of 4 players. They can only sign the rest of their roster, including 3 rookies, to minimum contracts.

Where’s the bench and big man? Last time I watched the NBA playoffs, that’s what ended up winning a championship.

Kobe will surpass Jordan and possibly Horry in championship ring total at this rate.

Since Miami will be such a dynasty according to a guru like yourself, why should we try and win now when we can easily go with the OKC/Portland route?

Hell, I'm probably just a bitter Knicks fan, but..

If LeBron does go to Miami, and they lose Beasley, sign a bunch of crap players like Theo Ratliff.. What happens if LeBron gets injured? What about Wade with his injury problems? And Bosh is no superman either. Plus, who can shoot on that team, or play interior D without being a liability everywhere else? The team would be great, undoubtedly, but not unbeatable.

The Lebron to MIA is a smokescreen, definently not happening, if it was he would have announced it along with Bosh and Wade.

Plus we all should know by now that LeBron is all hype. If he actually ended up in NJ, I would likely puke.

I seriously think that Lebron going to the Heat would be horrible for the league, lets say they do get together and dominate and win 4 rings. Then what? Will the league continue to be a get-together type of league to build a dynasty?

What if they fail? 3 of the leagues biggest stars dont win anything, that would be very bad for the league as well since Lebron and Wade are the face of the league along with Kobe. I dont think this is good for the league if he goes to the Heat.

The Raptors have signed Nuggets restricted free agent forward Linas Kleiza to a four-year, $20 million offer sheet, according to Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports.

Kleiza terminated contract with Greece's Olympiacos Wednesday, but Denver will have seven days to match Toronto's offer.
