Great season that we all experienced! Stay positive as we Move forward looking towards to Next year pending the new CBA. We've got nothing to hold our heads down for. Didn't win the Chip but I'm still very proud of our Miami Heat team!
Eastern Conference Champs isn't the best Consolation Prize but it's a great starting point for next year. Lets get there again!

Losing hurts of course but we'll be better and more prepared the next time around!

Keys and points for improvement:

-Quality Big Man of course

-A point Guard that can give Bron and Wade an opportunity to work without the ball

-KEEP CHALMERS and UDONIS!

thoughts guys?

Chalmers is probably gone. Someone is going to overpay him.

Cut all of the fat off the roster. The majority of the vets they brought in can't play for crap anymore.

Two guys I would target: Aaron Brooks and Sam Dalembert.

Keep the three stars, draft Nolan Smith, re-sign Mario Chalmers /James Jones, sign Samuel Dalembert, don't return phone calls to Mike Bibby/Erick Dampier/Juwan Howard, find a way to get out of the Mike Miller contract (amnesty clause?) and get healthy for another run.

I think LeBron is in a situation where he's just mentally not there. I just heard Skip suggest a sports psychologist and that makes 100% sense to me. He needs to rearrange his priorities so that basketball and winning championships comes first. Funny thing is, the only trade that would ever make sense for either of those two players would be for one another but I don't think it could ever happen. The Miami Heat can win with the 3 that they have in place, they just all need to be focused on the same goal.
LeBron James has a lot of weaknesses in his game that he needs to focus on this offseason. I think it's safe to say that if he is even 75% of the player that we once knew that the Heat would be focusing on a game 7 right now if not having already hoisted that trophy. He just was not there this entire series.
The answer to this whole situation lies within Pat Riley though. Eric Spoelstra is a good enough coach but I don't think he's going to be able to bring out the beast in these players. I mean we literally sat there yesterday and the place was disgusted every time Bron let one of the Mavs guards scare him out of scoring. There were glimmers of hope when it seemed like he'd just get frustrated and bogard his way through for a layup but it just wasnt enough. If you know they can't stop you from going to the rim I don't understand why you'd be content with passing off to a much lesser talent. Like I said yesterday, when you have minutes until you go home empty handed that ball should not be cycling through ANY former MVP's hands. That's something that's going to have to be reawakened within him.

Lebron's season does not begin unless he is in the finals again next year....everything else doesn't matter anymore

We need Centers and a point guard. Riley's probably going to draft them and maybe sign one free agent center. This CBA should be interesting.
