Let's see....LeBron, D-wade, and Chris Bosh. Supposedly three superstars to lead the Miami Heat to the NBA championship this year.

This team may win in the future.......but now?
Just "lukewarm".
From the Miami Herald:
SPURS 125, HEAT 95

The Spurs blitzed the Heat from start to finish, setting a franchise record for three-pointers in a game and finishing with eight players in double figures as Miami suffered its worst loss of the season Friday night in San Antonio.
