I know that many in the media and on this board think that Ray is already gone and that many signs point that way. I don't. If the public persona that Ray has cultivated over the years is real, he won't go to the cHeat.
Ray is too competitive to be an "if you can't beat them, join 'em" kinda guy.
If Ray takes his talents to South Beach, his public persona takes a huge hit. With the Cs offering double the money and a no trade clause or kicker (if the rumors are correct)Ray comes off as "jilting the Cs" out of spite if he goes over to the cHeat.
God, I hate the cHeat!!!!!!!!!
First the unsavory, duplicitous collusion (which no doubt involved the cHeat organization) that brought the unholy trinity together in the first place along with the Wade rip of Rondo'st elbow and his cheap shots in general coupled with the biases for them by the legue/refs/ESPN.
And now,trying to steal away of one of our players by taking advantage of Ray's ego and his anger at the Cs. (He's an athlete being paid millions to play a game. He was the subject of trade talks on numerous occasions, and felt unloved. BOOHOO. Get over it Ray, that's part of the business!)
I saw this coming when Allen, Wade and LeBroid had that lovefest on the floor at the end of game 7 of the ECF.
This is kinda like you p---ing off your girl friend , and to get back at you she goes and sleeps with your sworn enemy who was also her sworn enemy. Ray's not that kinda guy.
You have too much class, Ray, to do this.
P.S. He will swallow coming off the bench, because Wade is an established star and AB?....who the hell is he?
Hey Ray, he's the guy, if you become a cHeat, who will be in your jersey smothering you and blocking your shots.
Won't come to this. Ray wont do it in spite of all of the signs to the contrary.
