The Miami Heat has had its time when the Big Three was still leading the charge for their franchise.
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade have since chosen to go back to their roots, leaving Chris Bosh as the man in South Beach. The Heat held promise last year, with a very solid starting lineup that was one of the best in the East.
But things took a sudden turn when Bosh was forced to sit out the season for medical reasons. A few months later, no confirmation has been made as to whether fans will get to see the All-Star forward run the court for Miami this year, or worse, never.
But in Micky Arison’s open letter to fans published on NBA.com, the Heat owner may have hinted on the status of the franchise’s best player.
“What won't change is the culture of this organization. The Miami Heat is a Championship organization. I fully expect this team, from Pat Riley to head coach Erik Spoelstra, to our veterans Chris Bosh, Udonis Haslem, Goran Dragic, and Josh McRoberts, to our returning young core of Hassan Whiteside, Justise Winslow, Josh Richardson, and Tyler Johnson, to the fresh faces joining the Heat family to continue our mantra of being the ‘hardest working, best conditioned, most professional, unselfish, toughest, meanest, nastiest team in the NBA.'”
The Heat are now banking on Goran Dragic and Hassan Whiteside to carry the cudgels for the team when the season tips off. But if Bosh gets to return to the floor, that would be a big boost for sure.
Chris Bosh’s case is a sensitive one. This goes way beyond basketball, so whatever’s best for the former Olympian should be accepted without any remorse.
