Re: 2010-2011 Official Miami Heat Thread
Nice to have you on board Nicko. I think I'm one of the biggest Heat fans on this board, and longest running as well (even before the Wade days).
I'm excited to see who we fill out the roster with. I'm still waiting on J-Will to come back. Disappointed to see Raja Bell just decided to sign with the Jazz.
Wade, LeBron, Bosh, Chalmers, Mike Miller, Udonis and Big Z is a pretty damn good start.
That's 7 players. We'll need 13 under contract to per NBA rules, but I reckon our rotation will probably only be 10 players or so.
Get another point guard, a big body and another versatile shooter in there and I think we'll be looking sharp!
Long time Wade junkie first time Heat supporter here, can't wait to see how next year turns out

Haha yep
Everyone will be flocking to this thread now I can feel it 
Here comes the bandwagon!
I'll be looking forward to the Heat/Hawk games, as the Heat have now surpassed the Celtics as my most hated.

Well he hasn't got the starting gig down pay right yet.
I don't think Miami has that much confidence in him - so his play this season will really determine how he is used in the future.
The fact that the Heat tried so hard to get a guy like Derek Fisher, who is older and slower than Chalmers shows that they don't think he has the experience or mental make-up to be that guy for them yet.
That said I think he's got a great opportunity in front of him, and I think he has all the tools to be a really good player.
Great defensively, long arms, good motor, good perimeter shooter and creative passer.
Things don't look good at the moment since he injured his ankle and is out a month..

always been a FLorida fan (orlando back in the shaq/penny days) and started supporting heat when i got back into b-ball in '03! i have loved watching them come along those years especially when my childhood hero came to town and brought them a championship! now comes the new era with 2 of my favorite young players in Wade and James. this is gonna be exciting! i cant wait! p.s i really want one of those old school throw back miami jerseys wih the stripes down one side and a number 6 on it.
oh and i would like you to meet My Monkey, Sebastian!

Re: 2010-2011 Official Miami Heat Thread
You're definitely not wrong.
If the Miami coaching staff is smart they will use LeBron in a point-forward role, setting up and running the offense like Scottie Pippen did for the Bulls of the 90's.
Playing to Bron's strengths are important, and ball-handling, play-making and creating shots for others is one of his biggest strengths.
In crunch time I don't think they will have a point on the floor. Depending on match-ups that could change but I definitely wouldn't shy away from a crunch-time lineup of Wade, James, Mike Miller, Haslem and Bosh.

With you on that one, 3 Stars, heaps of depth, looking for the Heat. Should be an entertaining team to watch!
Great news i thought they had lost him for a while there at the start of the week.
This team is shaping up to be a real threat next season.
Hopefully OneHD and ESPN show plenty of games

Re: 2010-2011 Official Miami Heat Thread
Not heaps of depth yet but definitely getting there!
Chalmers, Wade, Bron, Miller, Bosh, Haslem and Ilgauskas are 7 pretty decent starting points.
The concern is no longer PG because both Wade and Bron can play the point, and even Mike Miller could sometimes play point-forward.
The biggest hole will definitely be center, we lack the athletic and big bangers to really take on Dwight Howard and the Gasol/Bynum tandem.

Howard, Miller, Quin is pretty good depth lol. But you're right though, a descent Big bodied bigman is definetly required.
