LeBron vs Wade is the major headliner here even though they are rarely matched up head-to-head. Still, a legendary battle between two top 50 players of all-time is all anyone can ask for. UPDATE: LeBron does the fans no favors by sitting out the early-season matchup.

Heat: Coming off a solid win vs OKC, Miami looks to continue improving it's versatility and consistency on offense to try to challenge this very Cavs team for a shot at the NBA Finals.

Cavs: Love is having a notable year so far while LeBron keeps the ship steady and ready for another Finals appearance. Although they have a great record, the Cavs have dropped a few games of late and are looking to steal one in Miami with LeBron out.

Prediction: Heat by 7

Lebron is out for this game. Blatt's call according to him.

David Blatt says LeBron wanted to play, "but we are thinking long-term."

David Blatt says there are "no physical problems..." for LeBron. Just a quick back-to-back after an overtime game.

David Blatt says that he knows Miami is "a special place for LeBron" and he considered that, but still decided to sit him

Was curious to see how well the Mismi Heat would procure the upper hand in this game even against LeBron, as the cumulative fatigue has been finally catching up to him for this season; now I'll have to wait another time to see, as that fatigue is at the threshold of sidelining LeBron. :/

I still would wage that the Heat could win with or without LeBron on the opposing end, but it at least would have been interestingly competitive throughout most of the game if was available.

When Goran Dragic outperforms your supporting cast you know you have a bad one.... wasnt even that big of a performance, just 17 simple pts...
