The new “Big Three” in Miami got us talking, blogging, texting, and tweeting like mad of how this could happen three of the biggest names in the NBA on the same team. Dewayne Wade was a logical choice to stay with his current team; he plays in the ultimate party city and has won a title there. Chris Bosh was ready to bolt Canada for the States so he could get back on the radar and play more than just 11 total playoff games in his career. Mr. Bosh wants to win and I can understand his position find a team who is serious about winning. That leaves LeBron, much has been written including this blogger right here but now that the smoke has cleared I can relate to his decision why not form your own squad that you think can win it all this season. LeBron was tired of waiting, playing with people that other’s thought would be the missing piece to the championship puzzle. He decided to put the pieces together himself and what better director for the script than Pat Riley who has won as a player, coach, and built winning teams as a general manager.
I still don’t agree with how this was done and the public spectacle that ensued was not necessary but, it is what is now. The 2010-11 NBA season is now the most anticipated in recent memory with the Miami Heat now being the team that everyone loves to hate. The Heat’s bandwagon will have many newcomers and this will make that bull’s eye even bigger. Miami will be playing 82 playoff games with every team in the league playing their absolute hardest that night. The playoffs will be even more rigorous and gut wrenching for the Heat every loss will fuel the papers, blogs, and chat rooms with see I told you it wouldn’t work.
So now we anticipate the “Dream Team” Miami is assembling and what this season will have in store for not only them but the game of basketball. I hope the players go see the “Wizard” to get some courage to deal with this season on an off the court. This is either one of the greatest coups by a trio of superstar players or the biggest blunder in free agent signings.

Guru, I believe that this team has a shot at winning at least one championship. They need to get a legitimate big man, an outside shooter and a championship caliber point guard to make a serious run for the title. It might be tough to rule out the Lakers for another three-peat this season, but the Heat will have as good a shot to win as Orlando and Boston. Should be a fun season if they can make it happen on the floor.
My real question is who takes the lead when they hit a bad spell? Not having that figured out will make them more chumps than champs. I'm just saying.
