Again, the made money and own titles because they were born with the athletic ability to do so. Nothing else.

By your logic you should have posters of lottery winners on your wall.

I totally disagree. Does someone spend years working hard at the gym...to win the lottery?
Most everyone is born with the ability to make money. You have to be "Smart" enough to stay on the right path.
Its easy to be lazy, its hard to work. Choosing to work hard is a very intelligent choice.
Don't get me wrong...I'm not calling these guy geniuses, but for each of them to make it to the NBA, it took a lot of hard work and required them to make a lot of smart choices.

The only reason I assumed Wade and Bosh would take less money was to keep Lebron in Miami.
Miami has practically no shot at getting back to the Finals without Lebron.
Wade and Bosh would still make alot of money from the commercial market, if they keep getting to the finals.
The longer they stay in the spotlight the more money they will make in the free market, from name recognition.

They could potentially lose "more" money, by Not taking a pay cut to keep LeBron.
(although I have no idea how much money they make from marketing)
I'm kind of surprised they are resistant to taking less money.
Wade moving like he's 50 years old, and Bosh shooting from the 3-line like a...6'3 SG
Miami needs to get the Dinosaur back in the paint...Hes not worth max money being 7'0 and camping the 3-point line.

If Wade and Bosh don't take less money, It will be the beginning of the end for Miami.

Sorry thought you were Pinky. It's late.

Don't really feel like getting into it all over again but being born with the god given athletic ability to bean NBAstar is why those guys are rich, not their brains. If people are going to play fan boy of people who are the recipients of astounding random luck, why not lottery winners? It's just as random.

BWAHAHAHAHA. I'm sure he will give consideration to re-signing in Miami...but if he does what he did in Cleveland...let's just say it's another good time to say fuck Miami fans who will crawl back in a hole and pretend the team doesn't exist as soon as he leaves.

I still expect him to be in Miami next year, and I'm still holding out hope that he runs into a hungry shark. All this is is insecure LeBron needing massive amounts of attention and to be wooed. He saw how much coverage Marshmelo was getting and decided he wants to be the spotlight again.

I don't not expect him to be there...but there is a realistic chance he won't be too. If there wasn't, then Riley wouldn't have to be the LeBitch Bitch...but he does.
