Anyone watch basketball??

How do you feel about the Miami Heat adding three big names and becoming quite a force? LeBron leaving Cleveland for easy rings? I personally can't believe he aired a special on TV that didn't involve him staying in Cleveland...pretty selfish

I don't believe that it real as easy as he thinks. Rings come from team play and not the big three. Celtics did a good job and pulling players around their big 3 and it paid off for them. I think the Celtics are still the king of the east. With Derek Fisher opting not to go to Miami and staying in L.A. it still gives the lakers the advatage for the 3 peat and Phils 12 th ring. He still has 9 more to go to cover his toes lol.

That's true, though they have a big three they still have some ways to go (got mike miller and haslem which is pretty good but they still need a center), but I can't see the celtics winning a title again for a while. they're all only getting older, one injury and their chances are slim (same with the heat). i'd be surprised if the lakers didn't take it to the finals again.

by the way, did you see that ridiculous showing of the big three at miami's arena where they came on stage like dancing and high fiving people in their uniforms?? the downfall of basketball as we know it.. x_x

you must be from ohio sir and or old im not saying the joining of the three said players in miami is good for basketball.but its definitely not bad.

lebron just wants a chance to win.something many basketball players want and the actions done have been done in the past and will continue to be done in the future.

it's called putting pieces in place to become a contending team.and if the team can do it.then more power to them.its done in all sports.

actually i'm not old and im not from ohio haha. think about this... what if they win the next 6 out of 10 titles. so what? big deal your team is now expected to win. you've become the yankees of basketball.

if you look at what MJ said recently it makes good sense. Back in the day players like MJ bird magic, they never called each other up and said hey lets stack this team up and win a bunch of titles. if these players wanted to, i'm sure they could have made arrangements to play together and make a dynasty.

the dynasties that are remembered come naturally, jordan with a cast of role players throughout their 6 titles, duncan with players like robinson and manu.

While i understand that James wasnt winning titles in cleveland, they got him to the finals and were a contender every year. I think he could have done more in some of the big games.. while he passes a lot he can also score ruthlessly, like what we saw in jordan.

take on the challenge! his legacy is now diminished. he can never be compared to jordan after this..

by the way it most definitely will be exciting to watch and i will watch, i just think lebron's an asshole for having a one hour special, no matter which charity got the proceeds, to do something like that. cleveland is in need of a hero, and he could've been that hero
