 Would you like to see D Wade join forces with Lebron James?  In Miami,  With Oneal, Haslem, B-Easy, Chalmers, Wade, And Lebron would be fairly ridiculous. 

 Lebron needs one other dominant player/scorer on his side. If they could push their ego's aside, it could be potentially as Lethal as the Jordan Pippen duo.

 Think about it, Lebron could be the defender Scottie was, with the potential to be better, And Lebron is certainly a better Scorer\passer\playmaker\ than Pippen was.

 And although D wade, is not quite MJ, he's about as close as you can get, and he was the best player in the Olympics, and Top Five player in the game no question, And when you have two top five players in this game, you have great success.

 Now could Lebron coexist? They both Dominate the ball, They both are Alpha dogs, Bit I can't stop thinking about how they could make it all work, Lock down the other team on Defense, Run the break, throw alley oops to each other, And basically run the other teams right out of their Gym.
 
  Would you do it if you were Lebron, sign a two or three year deal and play with Wade, if he dosen't win this year with Cleveland.

The LeBron to Miami trade rumors have existed for awhile, and seem much more feasible these days because of the fact that the Knicks just acquired Tracy McGrady - a move that might reveal to them in advance how effective trading for, basically a younger version of Tmac (LeBron) might be if they chose to do so next season. I'm not trying to say that the two players are exactly the same (well besides height, position) seeing as Tracy McGrady still has yet to lead an NBA team out of the first round of the playoffs:

...now that's what I call range! Too bad Gilbert got run out of Washington after the whole gun scandal  :P

NBA is turning into tv series, rather than a competitive bball league. Would not be suprised to see Lebron to pair up with another top five player. All about ratings and money, not basketball

For the sake of basketball ... this will hopefully not happen.

It would build a powerhouse that would be near-impossible to beat. They'd demolish everyone that stands in their way. Winning title after title until Wade's health gives up on him.
