What do you think happens if...the Miami Heat get the first pick in the 2008 NBA Draf

Imagine a team with D Rose, D Wade, Lebron and Bosh. That would be fun to watch.

Lebron never makes it to Miami...they wouldn't have the space.

Wouldn't rose still be on his rookie contract though?

Yes, which still would have been too much to make the big 3 work. They had to trade Beasley in order to make the money work.

They had to trade Beas just to make the money work.

Edit: King already answered my bad.


But technically, if they had Rose, they might could have traded off Chalmers instead.

With that said I don't think Rose and Wade are that great of a fit together. And Rose and LeBron would really only be a good fit if there was a good shooter at SG, which Wade is not. But it's still a **** load of talent none the less. Miami might have been better fitted with Love, Lopez, or Ibaka.

It's probably a Lebron/Wade/Rose big three. Bosh goes somewhere else. We sign higher quality rotational guys instead.

That's what I think would have happened, the Heat probably could've signed a backup pg for cheaper than Chalmers. If Rose, LeBron, D Wade, and Bosh managed to join together on the Heat, do you think that they would be good enough to get to the Finals without any money for bench players?

I think the difference would be Rose's health. If Rose is mostly healthy, yes they'll be in the finals every year. They probably beat the Mavs the first time up, beat OKC, and split with the Spurs. So 3 titles instead of 2.

If Rose is injured like he has been in Chicago they probably lose the East a couple times to the Celtics, Pacers, or Nets at least twice. So 2 finals appearances instead of 4.
