Exactly, and these peasant teams trying to throw money to get a super star (Falcons, Rockets, Cavs) have NOTHING but money. Lebron going back to Cleveland is Lebron rewinding 4 years. The locals will idolize him, he'll get an extra 5-10 million... and be doing all the heavy lifting. It will be a struggle to get into the play offs and he won't be on a contender ready team.

Exactly, the HEAT had no problem getting into the playoffs. Even if Wade sat out the whole season they would still make it.

Bingo. Miami ran out of depth to compete with the Spurs. It was Lebron vs a well oiled machine. Spurs rotated players, kept energy up and shared the ball.
