Not long after LeBron James’ Finals flameout, Miami president Pat Riley has sent word to other league execs: He’s not breaking up his Big Three.

"As soon as the Heat started struggling, all the way back in November of 2010, the ideas started coming in. “What if they traded Chris Bosh?” The ideas continued all the way through the Finals including a few insane people talking about how they need to trade LeBron James. Sorry, I don’t care how much of a headcase he is. He could dance half-naked on the training room table to “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” and he still wouldn’t be too much of a headcase to keep. But since they lost in the Finals, terrible end to the season that that was, only being better than every team in the East and all but one team in the West, including face-kicking both Boston and Chicago, the noise has been similarly loud."

Check out the official Heat board. There are like 3 threads about it. "Should the Heat pull the plug on the Big 3?" :lol:

yeah a ton of people (not naming) were saying all kinds of stupid ish after we lost game 6. big 3 are untouchable. barring a disaster they will play here till 2013-2014 and if they are winning/ have won will most likely sign their player options and hopefully all retire here

i hate how the imbecilic media and general populous says that if we dont win 5-6 championships than this team is a failure.

the ideal scenario would have been to win this year which we were so close =(
win in 11-12,12-13,13-14. that wouldve been 4 championships with a shot at a 5th in 14-15.

in 2014-15 lebron and bosh will both be 31 wade will be 34.

jordan won his last 3 championships at the age of 33,34 and 35.

im confident that the heat can at least get 3 rings out of this whole era. i hate sounding cocky and boasting about things that havent happen but realistically the heat do have a chance to win the next 4 years and maybe more.

jason kidd was huge for dallas this season and is 38 years old. i hate hearing simple minded newts bragging about how they know d-wade is going to decline and not be effective in 2 years.

have some optimism in the big 3. this season was just the beginning

Am I the only one that thinks a starting 5 of Bynum, Bosh, Artest, Wade and Chalmers is better than Anthony, Bosh, LeBron, Wade, Chalmers?

I THINK YOU SHOULD LAY OFF THE DRUGS LOL RON ARTEST AND ANDREW BYNUM ARE NOT GREATER THAN LEBRON JAMES.

All we need is a upgrade at center , Mario Chalmers is improving and most of it is due to LeBron James I love our core of Dwyane Wade,LeBronJames,Chris Boah , Mario Chalmers ,Udonis Haslem and hopefully a healthy MIke Miller . I just want some improvement at center position.

Ron Artest? WTF? Artest is dead weight the Lakers are trying to bundle in any future trade to free payroll. PEACE.

Thats not a surprise.... The expectation of keeping the Big 3 is always there. Too early to break the trio
