Why Would LeBron, Wade and Bosh Ever Want to Break Up Their Good Thing?

There's nothing wrong with wondering about what will become of the Miami Heat after this season, but after watching how LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh joyously ran over, around and through the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday, it's hard to understand why the Big Three would ever want to play anywhere else.

Or with anyone else.

Ahead of the Heat's 116-112 win at the Staples Center, ESPN's Brian Windhorst and Ramona Shelburne touched on why it'd be a mistake to assume James will stick around in Miami beyond this summer:

The logical and gut read is, five months from now, James will have recommitted to staying in Miami, either by not opting out of his contract or re-signing long term. But as James and the Heat visit the Los Angeles Clippers on this Feb. 5, the lessons from the past are a reminder to be careful making assumptions at midseason. Especially when it comes to James.

It's hard to argue that point. We've been surprised by James before and have seen enough high-profile free agents relocate to know that nothing's ever certain.

At the same time, the situation with James and the Heat is different than it was with James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. Many of those differences were on display Wednesday night.

 

Isn't This Fun?

The Heat had the rock hopping from the opening tip, finding shooters and generating easy baskets with incredibly quick and precise ball rotations. In the opening period, Miami shot a ridiculous 70 percent thanks to a team-wide unselfishness that most squads can only dream of.

Fifteen assists for the Heat in the first quarter.
