Difference between Cavs and Heat after LeBron left.

Cavs = Lottery team for four years

Heat = Playoff Team

Cleveland or retirement.

Bosh phone interview today

Says if there is a Heat Cavs match up we gon win

Says he is going to play win a chip on his shoulder

Excited to be number 1 option, but will never be CB4 again (different person and type of play he says)

Talked about the dinner they had at soho house, said Lebrons body language made him realize something might be up. And that they did make their decisions individually. It wasn't to discuss anything... Hm

I don't want to hear anything with the word TRADE in it. After what we've been through, ANYONE that wants to be here, should have a chance to be hear.

But keep this in mind, from here looking at mostly minimums: Has to be veteran motivated for playoff pursuit (Jameer? Caron?)

Replied to 0 times

I kinda wish we committed to Caron instead of Granger . Idk if there is a purpose for both?

I hear you, but there are serious basketball realities that need to be addressed in order for this team to be successful, and one of them is a lack of depth in our front-court.

"Who had the better career - VC or Wade?"

C'mon, GB...

Bosh has always made promises that he can't deliver. Remember all those times he said he wanted to averaged 10 rebs per game for the Heat, didn't happened. Next year, he'll have more pressure to put up big numbers because he'll have a big target on his back as the highest paid player on the roster and second highest paid player in the league. He's going to need to average 9+ rebounds next season to shut his doubters up.

I also hear you, but YOU nor I are in a position to have a vote in this, let's just stay on the high road, I remember how I felt on Friday, I love how I feel since...how bout you?

Don't be greedy, the ones that are in charge know what they're doing, so far RIGHT NOW< we are a better overall team. After all that has happened, we still got players that WANT to be here..I'll take that..

I hope Wade save all his best games next season for when he meets the Cavs. I missed those LeBron vs Wade games, and although Wade will be at a major disadvantage now, he can still put up a fight if Spo rest him enough and play him big minutes for certain match-ups.

Wade3 · Post #1655 » by **Wade3** » Mon Jul 14, 2014 1:17 am

So everyone stayed except for you-know-who? Absolutely delighted at the loyalty being shown to Wade, Riley & Arison. I get LeBron wanted to go home but to see Bosh, Andersen, Haslem & others commit to the plan, it's a great show of loyalty.

Think they go after JJ for A backup 2/3?

I sure hope JJ comes back and is used more. But I've been saying it for a while now we need a good SG to replace Ray and step in whenever Wade misses games. Doubt he'll miss as many as last year since we won't be saving him but I can't see him playing 82 games.

Sign a backup for Wade and this team is Top 3 for sure.

If they click we CAN make it to the finals again.

Anyone else think we have a chance at the no.1 seed this year? Or am I just crazy?
