im guessing, chalmers, wade, haslem, howad, ilgaulskis

PS has FIBA started yet?

[Monkey]

Um.. Lebron and bosh????

 

I think it starts in a couple of days

[I-dreezyAFG]

um.... might leave miami?

[Monkey]

Have you not heard what has happened down in Miami?? ???

[I-dreezyAFG]

wat happened this time?

[Monkey]

You failed to mention Lebron and Bosh in the Miami starting line up...

[I-dreezyAFG]

right, but i just mentioned the starting 5 without lebron and chris

[Monkey]

Why?

[I-dreezyAFG]

i knew the trio couldn't be true

http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/07/lebron-james-and-chris-bosh-re-up-with-their-respective-teamsbefore-being-traded-to-the-heat.php but this new era is still strong. the heat got juwan howard and zydrinus

[Monkey]

All I see from that thread is that they signed separately... What difference does that make?

[I-dreezyAFG]

theyre basically saying the heat get 2 first round draft picks instead of lebron and bosh

[Monkey]

"So instead, the Heat made two separate sign-and-trade deals to help secure their two incoming superstars to longer contracts that will also afford them more financial flexibility for the upcoming season."

 

This sounds like the Heat made deals to sign Lebron and Bosh

 

"The Heat sent two first-round picks (Miami's lottery-protected 2011 first-round pick and a future pick that Toronto already owed to the Heat) to the Raptors in exchange for a signed Bosh, who will commit for six years rather than the maximum five the Heat could offer. Similarly, the Cavs signed James to a six-year deal in exchange for two future first-round and two second-round picks. Both the Raptors and Cavs will also acquire rather sizable trade exceptions, worth approximately $15 million each."

[I-dreezyAFG]

dang it! this is bad news or the rest of the L.

[Monkey]

Yeah... Not really... Their chemisty might not be good at all... Plus there is still Boston and LA, it's not like MIA is a super team now. They just got some good players.

[I-dreezyAFG]

oh right. forgot about that. plus the rest of the team isn't great either. sure, there's udonis and juwan, but it'll take a long time to get the "average" players into shape with the superstars. cause the big 3 can't do it just together, and the average players aren't good with superstar teammates. after all, dwade single handedly carried the heat to the 2010 playoffs. the big 3 are used to taking the game into their own hands. maybe thats the reason for their lack of chemistry

PS sorry if this is long

[Monkey]

But like you mentioned, they have Big Z and Mario Chalmers, two good supporting starters for Lebron, Bosh, and Wade

[Slash]

I dont really see Zydrunas starting in Miami. Don't know why. I see him as the second center behind someone else.

[I-dreezyAFG]

someone like who?

[Slash]

someone like who?

 

Someone younger. I don't know much of their current roster other than what has been stated, so I can't really say the name of someone who I think should start.

 

NOTE: Doctors allow Yao to start working out.

[Monkey]

Bosh is a Center or Forward?

 

Yao can practice? He won't be ready in time for early season, maybe mid to late season?

 

Oh and Slash, did you get my PM?

[I-dreezyAFG]

maybe someone like al horford or greg oden or andrew bynum would do it.

[Monkey]

maybe someone like al horford or greg oden or andrew bynum would do it.

 

Would do what?

[Slash]

Would do what?

None of them play for the Heat -_-

[Monkey]

Exactly, so how do those 3 players help Miami?

[I-dreezyAFG]

i meant like being a better starting center than zydrinus, if they were in miami. (responding to wat slash said, about not seeing zydrinus as a starter)
