Exactly. I honestly don't see him winning MVP ever again. With our without Lebron the Heat are damn good team now.

Well assuming they get those role players and veterans.

If they trade Beasley for picks...

They'd still have money to go get a good role player to fill out that roster.

Assuming they move Beasley in a straight no salary return... 16.6x3 = 50 million. That's 8 million short of the cap. Chalmers is under 1 million, that still leaves ~7 million to play with.

I think they keep Chalmers, sign a good Center to MLE money, use BAE on a shooter/wing, and go from there.

7 million could net you a lot of talent if guys strictly want to try and go for some rings.

Raja Bell, Childress, Marquis Daniels, Theo Ratliff, Brad Miller, Shaq (

), Haywood, Petro, Earl Watson, Trav Outlaw, R. Butler, Jordan Farmar, Steven Hunter, Jamaal Tinsley, Ridnour, Tony Battie, Barnes, Elson, Amundson, Bogans, Oberto, and Shaun Livingston.

All of these guys may be intrigued to go to MIA and help those three out. Albeit this is IF Beasley is moved for draft picks only (or cash considerations), I can see them using that 14ish million to grab up a group like Raja, Barnes, Hunter, Brad Miller, Shaun Livingston, Francisco Elson, and Earl Watson. Those guys aren't great by any means, but I can see a lot of those guys going for cheap.

Or maybe they'll go for 1-2 higher profile guys, signing one with the remaining seven million, using all their MLE on a 6th man, and then just have their 2nd round picks get some burn.

Hell, even Iverson or McGrady could pony up with them,

I know Iverson would sign cheap.

If Bron goes, I can't wait for the report saying Shaq wants to go back to Miami.

It will happen.

Part of me thinks LeBron's camp is just floating this Miami thing to gauge the reaction. And what I've seen has not been positive.

Adande > Broussard. Evidence #1.

LeBron = diminished legacy if he joins up with Wade. Bosh doesn't even count since he's a sidekick.

So, if Bron ends up in Miami, what're the odds that Amare backs out of his deal?

Or Boozer?

The paperwork ain't signed.

Could turn into a Baron Davis/Elton Brand deal.

How can you feed two alpha dogs and one puppy with just one bone? LBJ to Miami is a smokescreen. Its an on-court disaster waiting to happen.

And for all that say Ohio is the biggest loser in this one assuming it is true, I say think again. The biggest loser in all this, in my opinion, is Erik Spoelstra. Get ready to be thrown under the bus, Spo! Riley's a snake...

Maybe Hahn's sources fed him misinformation to build up suspense and surprise?

/Knicks fan spin.

Good or bad, I won't believe it officially until I hear Lebron say it.

Because Lebron James is a %#!@@.



Having said that, I hope this news is true.
