There are delusional fans out there who honestly want him to come back to Miami. I dont know which one you are. I never had a problem with him leaving. I have my opinions about how it was handled but i understand it and hold no grudge. And if there is one thing anyone who knows me personally will tell you about me is... I HOLD GRUDGES.

With the ongoing chaos with the Lakers, it might be time to bring Bron back to South Beach.

Waiters; Ryan Anderson, and Whiteside for Bron.

Who says no

i doubt we have the assets

sure we would be better but bringing lebron onto a team that doesnt have the firepower to compete in this modern shooters era nba would just be one big ass headache IMHO

id rather have a fast paced youthful system over the tired ol give lebron the ball in the half court and watch him either work some magic or completely brick that shyt esp if theres no wade to bail him out

Idk im kind over the whole bron ish as much as i love him as a player and what he brought to south beach

I want brad beal on the heat but idk if hes a #1 option franchise centerpiece closer type player

or we could take on a high risk project of picking up wiggins

kyrie/lillard/booker also welcome to join the ranks of south beach

 

[intruder]

meh...

I dont see much leadership in Winslow. J-Rich neither. Not sure about Bam but he's young and still has a lot to prove. I think to be a "leader" your peers on the squad have to respect you and i just dont see it yet.

What are we basing these trade scenarios on?
Did we acquire assets/trade pieces that i'm unaware of? Or are we just making up pipe dreams as if we have room to wiggle under the cap and picks available to trade?

Breh is disinterested in basketball in a state and city where there is nothing to do except play basketball. He wouldn’t stand a chance in South Beach

It’s one of the reasons Udonis Haslem pointed to Winslow as the player he believes can step up and become the Heat’s next leader.

“If I can pick somebody, I would love for it to be Justise,” Haslem said in January.

“I think that’s going to be who he is,” Wade said when asked about Winslow’s potential future as the Heat’s next leader. “I just think when you’re 22 years old, you’re just a little afraid to put yourself out there and get on a guy or this and that, or say something to a guy because you’re so young.”

But Haslem has noticed a more assertive Winslow this season.

“I see it,” Haslem said. “I see him stepping him. I see him getting better. I see him being more vocal. I see him putting guys in their spots. I see him holding guys accountable. I see the progression stages with him in that.”

I'm listening to this Bosh interview now and he also said Winslow is next in line to be the leader. Clearly they are all seeing things that you dont get to see on tv.

I want some of whatever y'all taking. Dealing with a family crisis right now that's stressing me the fukk out so i need that "get away from reality" pill.
That's why im flying into Miami tomorrow.

I never said they can never be leaders. Just saying it's tough for young players to emerge as leaders at times because vets look at them on some "who died and made you captain?" type shyt. These young lads still have a lot to prove.

If you recall D-Wade was in the league 4 years and some still questioned his "leadership"in the media. Wade was the best player on the team no doubt and they followed him on the court. Lockeroom is different i believe. Remember the whole James Posey thing? That was his name, right? Anyway, It wasnt until most of the vets we had on the roster were gone that he became known as the vocal leader of the team by checking young cats like Cook and Wright. But even then he only had so much influence because by then Shaq was being detrimental to the team with his attitude towards Riley. I'm sure Waiters and Whiteside's attitudes towards Spoelstra does the same to Winslow and Richardson's influence on the rest of the squad.

This is wrong in so many ways.

First of all, his first ever coach was Paul Silas! who was experienced as fukk!
Secondly, it's not like there a bunch of available HOF coaches sitting around waiting for a job. I mean right now we've got what, pop, carlisle, doc, spo and kerr?
Are ppl supposed to drag jerry sloan out of retirement for lebron?

Also he has been a free agent multiple times, he could have chosen to sign with a hall of fame coach if he wanted.

Spo is just average. Lebron had to put on all time heroic performances just for us to make the finals the first couple of years
