Oh and speaking of the Heat and Lebron just read this,LeBron tells uneasy Heat fans not to worry | NBA.com makes me very nervous actually, although in the article Lebron never states that he will go back to Cleveland, he never rejects the idea either.

I dont know if this means anything to the Heat, but losing Lebron would def be a great loss. Im sure IF this happens it would be post finals or even the season after the next but just reading it makes me shudder. Hope he doesn't have other ideas deep inside him.

Oh and Drodriguez this is what I mentioned before about him having some issues last year that he admitted in this article

Quote:

"It was a very difficult year for me last year, a transition year for myself on the court and off the court," he said. "I'm very comfortable when I'm with my whole family.

Lebron ruined his legacy already running to Miami to win some quick championships with Wade and Bosh than staying in Cleveland and winning on his own. He wants to be compared to Jordan/Kobe and have more championships. He's trying to play catch up on Wade's team. Cleveland was one step closer every year, it wasn't like they were bad, they were no. 1 seed every year and Lebron won 2 MVP's. He should've stayed in Cleveland Kobe didn't dump his team when they sucked from 04-07 being 8th seed. Jordan/Kobe would never dare seek someones help and go elsewhere.
I don't like Lebron, he's a great talent but just not a smart person. He says stupid things in interviews and stuff. Last year with his comments in the finals and also making fun of Dirk being sick last year in the finals.

Cleveland fan much??

No but in all seriousness you are right that Lebrons decision to leave was probably not in his best interest. Its part of the reason he carries so much pressure to win now. However, I bet you if he wins a ring this year (and most likely will be MVP finals player as well), there won't be anymore talk about his character or personality. People will still hate him in Ohio for leaving them, but he will establish a new foundation of fans in the south,(and I think he has already started to do that) which to me is a much larger and more impactful crowd than the cavalier fans.

Sometimes i feel that his actions outside of the court also make him seem like the "bad guy", but in reality, his amazing skills as a basketball player should overshadow that. Just as Michael Jackson had issues outside his music career, true fans of him and his music didn't let that affect their perception of how great of an artist Michael was. Similarly, all this background talk about him being a traitor, and etc, shouldn't take away from why we watch this guy play night after night and yam on guys that have 3 to 4 more years expereince in the league. All in all it for me it comes down to the skills you show on the floor, all that other talk can be saved for the tabloids.
