A Sticky Wicket Special: The Decision

At nine o' clock I sat in front of my television to see where in the NBA LeBron James would go. Half an hour into the most dramatic coverage of any sports story, the truth was out-the Miami Heat will add another superstar to its stacked lineup. LeBron will join Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in pursuit of his first championship.
In my opinion, it will be most interesting to see if the newest big three can equally share the spotlight, or if egos will attempt to rise above the others. LeBron is the man you want to give the ball to in the final minutes and seconds of a game for a winning shot...and so is Dwyane Wade. Now the quandary is, who do you give the ball to in those final seconds? Maybe they can shoot it together by each putting a hand on the ball. Go team!
I'm not one to sit here and criticize his decision, isn't it blasphemy to disagree with the King? However, I just don't know if it's going to work, at least not for a little while. Major adjustments will have to be made to all three players' game. Another question: how will the other players and the Heat bench fit into the picture? Will they achieve that championship combination?
The only question that remains is will Cleveland ever get out of this long slump of disappointing sports teams? That poor city just can't win! I truly do want the best for Lebron, and I'd love to see him win a championship. As the free agent season comes to a close, it will be exciting to see how it all plays out on the court.
