    So I was reading an article on ESPN (don't have the link, sorry)...and it stated that either Wade or James would leave their respective teams when they become free agents. Well, if one were to leave their team in the future which do you think would do it and which do you think would stay. I honostly think both Wade and James will eventually leave their teams. Unless James wins a championship with Cleveland, he is not staying. By the way, I am a true believer that LJ will not win a championship with Cleveland. As for Wade, after Shaq leaves I don't see Miami producing another championship. Sure you could say that Shaq didn't play well last season but without Shaq, Heat wouldn't have been able to win a championship (vise versu for Wade). What do you guys think? Will either of the two eventually leave?

    I can't really see Wade leaving Miami. I could see Lebron leaving the Cavs if they don't win a championship in a couple of years.

    The odds are higher LeBron leaves. He signed a shorter contract than Wade, he's younger, and I don't see the Cavs contending for a title in the next 4 seasons.

    Wade has already won a ring in Miami, signed a max deal, and Miami is a large market city capable of spending the money to build a championship contender.

    How about this idea? Will LeBron join DWade in Miami when he becomes a free agent. They are close friends off the court and have entertained the idea.

    That team would be GREAT! I doubt it will happen though.

    In the ESPN article I read there was a mention of the possibility of the two meeting to play together in another team. Article noted Charlotte as a possibility of harboring the two, if I remember correctly.

    Neither LeBron or D-Wade will leave their respective teams.

    LeBron is going to try to win a championship in cleveland therefore raising his NBA and marketing stock when he does become a free agent in 2010 . For dwyane wade what happens when shaq and mouring and payton retire within next year even (shaq a lttle later)? will he want to stay on a rebuilding team?

    Is there enough money to afford Wade and Lebron on one team as well as pay a Center, PF, and PG?

    How much money is Lebron going to make once the contract he just signed is up? 20 mill + per year?
