Remember that LeBron, Wade, and Bosh all signed for less than maximum salary so that they would all be together and win championship. See Bulls would've gotten LeBron and maybe Wade too, but they failed. Miami got them. Miami did a better job than Bulls.

Also, remember when LeBron signed with Miami? If you were 25 years old and had opportunity to make millions of dollars, where would you go? Cleveland? Miami? Chicago? Somewhere else? Why would someone want to work in Cleveland when they would work in Miami?

Miami did it right. Reel in star players, then have others who would probably maybe $3 million somewhere else sign with Miami for $1 million for chance to win championship.

Life is unfair. I don't care about Miami, but they didn't break any free agency rules or salary cap rules. They planned and recruited better than anyone.

More money than Miami salary. why he not interested to play with Cavs. So he made mistake and should return to cleveland. But he s too late to re sign.
