The Newest Big Three
by Cody Clark ~ July 11th, 2010.
San Antonio has Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobli. Boston has Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett. The Lakers have Kobe Bryant, Andrew Bynum and Pau Gasol. And now, Miami has added the NBA’s newest “Big Three” in LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, and Chris Bosh. Albeit for a slight pay cut of about 15 million less over their respective contracts’ lives, the three superstars signed contracts worth upwards of 325 million dollars. The three NBA superstars were introduced sporting their pearly white home Miami Heat jerseys on Friday complete with number changes and a new hair style from newcomer Chris Bosh. The move is the largest splash in the NBA since Boston formulated its Big Three in the 2007-2008 season, but leaves Miami in a tight spot. With all the cap room clearing and trade transactions that the Heat made to land Wade, Bosh and James, Miami now only technically has one player on their roster under contract in Mario Chalmers until the big three sign, and have only 6 total players on the roster. Even though the Heat acquired possibly the three of the biggest players in the NBA, the Heat are left with nary a remotely decent role player beside Chalmers. There are rumors flying around that the Heat are also talking to the Wizards’ sharp-shooter Mike Miller. The deal leaves them with 15 million dollars to fill out a supporting cast and as many as 6 roster spots, and in a tight spot to fill out a possible championship contending roster before the 2010-2011 season gets under way.

I’m really to be finally posting online after all these years. There really is no mystique (sp) about it, is there? I just dropped by your blog and had to write. I’m a recent college grad, journalism major if you must know, and I absolutely love photography. I’ve got my website up but it’s nothing to boast about yet. None of my stuff’s been posted. Soon as I figure out how to do that, I’ll spend the day posting my best shots. anyways just thought I’d drop a line. I hope to return with more substantial stuff, stuff you can actually use. SPG
