Re: 2014 Miami Heat Offseason Thread (Rumors/Reports/Lies) 7
Lebron is gone. There's no rationale for him not to squash this back to cleveland hype if he isn't going back. It would destroy the image and reputation he has rebuild. I don't think he's that stupid. IF he is, he's stupid and will be destroyed in the media once again.
I think the Heat's fault was first saying they would keep Mike, then letting him go. And Lebron saw Wade's rapid decline. Those 2 things together I think ultimately will push Lebron to leave the Heat (if he does).

You think if he leaves Riley sticks around? I think he dumps this all on Andy and Nick and says have a nice life, I'm off to Malibu.
I'm like Global Warming, you can't ignore me.

We don't know how legit Woj's sources are about LeBron recruiting players if he left. If he did do that, then it's hard to believe he will be back. So yes, even I am not as optimistic as before but whatever, hope for the best and trust in Riley.
Here's the thing...
we cant go around saying no one is really legit except Woj....but then when Woj says something negative....oh his sources may not be legit....see what I'm saying?
I still think he's back. However, he once again is handling free agency poorly (even if nots him....his people represent him so they make him look bad)

James is scheduled to meet with Miami Heat president Pat Riley in Las Vegas on Wednesday, and there's still an expectation among rival general managers that James will tell Riley he wants a short-term maximum contract and remain with the Heat.

If he does, someone should go to his house in Malibu and play his post-season "challenge" press conference speech on a megaphone on a loop 24/7.

And that's why exactly I am not as optimistic as I was about an hour ago.

He recruits for the other side?
That makes me upset.
And if he decides that Cleveland doesn't have enough championship potential to interest him, he'll end up right back here ... bitching about needing more help.
He's a real piece of work.

Heat fans finally opening their eyes to LeBron's true colors, doing y'all the same way he did Cleveland in 2010.

But doesn't recruit here to make Pat's life easier
We would have had Gasol with MLE first if Lebron recruited him I believe
We will see... It hasn't come to light if Lebron recruited players to Miami, since Granger and McBob believe Lebron will be their teammate

I think the bigger deal was Wade's decline. He came to play with 2 other stars. But him seeing the Heat accomodating Wade and rested him for 1/4 o f the season and he still bombed in the Finals must have pissed Lebron off. Numerous reports said he was extremely frustrated.
And he was basically a one man show for most of the season. He didn't come to Miami to be a one man show.
IF Wade was healthy (at least 20+/5/5 every game), Lebron would have signed ASAP.

Same here. First time I have been upset regarding this.
If this is true and he did not so the same for Miami, that is some ****.

We go out and get him White McBoris thinking he'd appreciate it given what Diaw did in the Finals and he turns around and does THIS to us? THIS?! Oh hell naw.
