The King Goes to Miami to Form the New Big Three

The one time Lebron Show came and went as the King decided where he will be next season. The country watched the interview special for wait seemed to be a lifetime, struggling through all the buffer questions that help legitimatize the broadcast and the charity donations. Finally, LeBron spoke on the future... the answer is... any minute now... here it comes... eventually... MIAMI!!! Lebron will join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh on the Miami Heat.

Miami now becomes most attractive team in the league. Immediately you want to say they are the best team going into the new season but I would offer a word of caution. The Heat still need some good support players to go around the Three Heats and they have some spots to fill. It may be a bit tricky trying to work in some viable players with the cap room they have left. Getting Lebron and Bosh, however, have effectively moved the Heat into the NBA Title discussion. Let's face it, Wade couldn't carry Miami to the Finals alone.

As for the decision itself, it became clear that winning a title was most important to the King and also being able to win a lot of them. It wasn't all about money to James as he would've gotten the most money by staying in Cleveland or at least working a sign and trade. If titles is what he wants, I don't blame him for leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers. The only reason that team was anywhere close to getting to the NBA Finals was because of Lebron. Cleveland, though, has nothing to fall back on. This organization will not make the playoffs this season and may fall to last place.

This decision will certainly shake up the Eastern Conference to a large degree. Move aside Garnett, Allen, and Pierce. The Miami Triple Heat are here. Good luck to everyone else in the East.

P.S. Any other names for this trio? I can't think of any good ones.
