NBA Screwed?: James Leaning Towards Heat

Maybe he'll recapture that early "magic" in Miami with Wade (in my opinion, a better player than James and perhaps just as good as Kobe). Still, no matter how titles James wins in Miami, Wade will always have one more.

As for the Southeast...don't forget about Joe Johnson, and the Bobcats were a playoff team last year

Yeah, the Southeast is now pretty loaded up. But I don't agree with LeBron's decision at all. I think he could have serviced both his goal of winning and his goal of building a personal legacy best in Chicago. He would have been numero uno on that team, and could have built his brand a lot better than playing second fiddle on D-Wade's team. Plus he could have gotten more money. And who could have challenged that Bulls squad in their division? Cleveland without LBJ? Detroit? Indiana? Milwaukee? Child please. They would win that division by a dozen games for the next 5 years.

I just have this feeling that something is gonna blow up on them in Miami. They will be so limited in what they can do as far as complimentary players to "The Three."

As a Wizards fan in the Southeast Division, I wish them nothing but the worst.
