Excellent read. I completely agree with the last point made on this article about the NBA being a business. What LeBron did was a lateral move (free agency) to a new company (Miami) with better incentive (Wade/Bosh) with the hopes of being the best conglomerate ever assembled (Greatest team) The only grip I have with this decision is how it might affect the NBA when it comes to the enjoyment of the game. Having that much star power on one team could potentially lead to a number of games where teams facing the Heat will just be overmatched. Only time will tell how this all plays out.

Great post Steve! I can’t stand that people are LBJ bashing! People quit their jobs everyday for another, and people should just wish him well. If the Cavs weren’t doing what they needed to keep him, then what’s their argument? “he should have stayed because we want him to”?? nah son, that doesn’t win championships.

People also need to understand that all of the great teams had more than ONE star!! Lebron can’t pull EVERYONE’s weight on the team! IT’S A TEAM!

I honestly didn’t think he was going to Miami, but I hadn’t decided where I thought he would go. I’m a DWade fan, so I was hoping NOT Miami…

Hopefully, LBJ gets what he wants and wins these ‘chips!

Good article big bro got to agree w/ Reece, if he goes on to win multiple championships his legacy won’t be diminished. This is a team sport and everyone else is too caught up with saying he has to win on his own, which makes no sense. But he has just added even more pressure on himself and expectations will be extremely high. I also think this is great for the NBA from a promotional aspect to, when MIA comes to town it will be bananas in every city, not to mention what South Beach is going to look like.

Great article Steve!

Decisions had to be made and I think he really believes that he made a decision best for him and his family. He mentioned all his life he has won championships and he sees that happening with Heat so let’s see. And as for Cleveland- hey it happens, guess they just didn’t get it, maybe they should have really threw their all into keeping him in OH they got cocky and thought their main man wouldn’t leave and now everyone is bitter. I’m excited to see these fellas in action!

Great article brother.

I’m not mad at Bron Bron for his decision. He would still do him no matter where he went and someone or some city would be on hate alert if he didn’t pick them.

The NBA is going to be on smash this season and Chris Broussard is about to get his own show.

Nice article Steve. I a couple of things I like to add is that he still may go down as the best player ever, because he has the greatness to take over a game like he did against Detroit and score 25 in a row. Playing with other great players doesn’t diminish a player’s legacy, look at Magic. But I think they could potential go down as the best team every. Your right it does affect the balance of the NBA by weakening two of the teams in the East plus the Celtics only have 1 or 2 more years left to compete at this level and the Bulls are a good, but not title contenders yet. So it’s going to be Orlando and Miami fighting to get to the finals every year. The Lakers also don’t have much competition in the West because Amare and Boozer just weakened two of the teams in the West.

One of the most important things no one has mentioned is that he is joining two of his friends. These three dudes came in the league together and won a gold medal together. They also hang out in the off season and when they play against each other. There could not be anything better than winning a chip with one of ya boys!

A lot of people are saying Lebron needed Wade to win, but Wade need Lebron too. Yes he has one ring, but Shaq was good in 2006. Shaq deferred his scoring to Wade, but if he hadn’t he could have averaged 28-30 ppg. Lebron never played with a player as good as 2006 Shaq.

He could have stayed in Cleveland and won one or two rings, but that still wouldn’t have been enough to put him in GOAT status. Look at Garnett, they tried so hard to get him players and everything they did just failed and he watch the Spurs and Duncan win four and Shaq and Kobe win three.

And I just want to give props to Stephen A. Smith who broke the story a week ago. Lebron, Wade and Bosh had this setup for a while.

lol several of the remarks individuals submit make me laugh, now and then i think about if they in truth read the writing and threads before leaving your 2 cents or if perhaps they only just skim the subject of the post and prepare the very first idea that pops into their brain. anyhow, it is nice to browse keen commentary from time to time instead of the same, outdated blog vomit which i quite often discover on the web i’m going to enjoy a few rounds of zynga poker so long
