"LeBron, D Wade, and Bosh could play in Miami?????" by Ronald Carthen


I can't believe there's a possibility that LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh could play for the Miami Heat next year. Who knows what all three of them were talking about this past weekend but reporters all over the country believe that their sources are accurate enough to report this story.

The Heat have enough money to sign two players to max deals but who is willing to take a pay cut to make this dream into a reality. I think it'll be LeBron or Bosh but either way both of them are ready to finally win their first NBA rings.

This reminds me of Paul Pierce and the Boston Celtics back in the summer of 2007, when Pierce was looking for a way to leave Beantown. Then Danny Ainge was able to get Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett to change the franchise around. They made to the NBA finals in two of the last three years and won the NBA title over the Los Angeles Lakers in 2008. You already know D Wade is ready to leave South Beach if Pat Riley wasn't committed to win another championship. Now we have a situation that he'll have a big three of his own, but these superstars are still young compared to the Celtic big three that are getting older and are running out of time to win another title.

I've always said LeBron will not win an NBA title if didn't have another all-star on the team, but heading to Miami with Bosh and D Wade would be more then enough to win a championship. I can see this team winning six championships, that's right I said it six rings. I'll be very interested to see if they can win an NBA title while Kobe Bryant and the Lakers are on top of the world, especially if Phil Jackson comes back for another season.

This move would spike NBA ratings through the roof. Can you imagine the national televised games they'll receive, or how many people will purchase NBA League Pass, or how many people will but season tickets no matter what the price. At the end of the day this will be a business decision for all three of these players to expand their brand other then how much money they'll make.

We already know every magazine and every sports writer will predict Heat vs Lakers in the NBA Finals as we finally see Kobe and LeBron in the Finals. This time it won't be who's better Kobe or LeBron, it'll be can Kobe stop the Heat big three. It would be the best championship series we'll see since the Lakers vs Celtics in the 80's and Michael Jordan and the Bulls vs the world in the 90's.

I can't wait for free agency to start on Thursday. This summer will change the NBA as we know it. We are going to see some players sign with teams that'll make us excited and others that'll surprise us. I'm excited to see what happens but if LeBron and Bosh join D Wade, you can forget about the rest of this free agency.
