LeBron James and Chris Bosh signed matching six-year, $110.1 million contracts, sources told ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher.

Dwyane Wade signed for six years and $107.5 million, according to the sources.

Sources told ESPN.com's Chad Ford that James and Bosh are scheduled to make $14.5 million and Wade $14 million in 2010-11.

Each player took $15 million less over the life of the contract to sign with Miami, but they have an opt out after the fourth year to all potentially become free agents in 2014.

The Heat sent two future first-round and two second-round picks to the Cavaliers for James, while packaging two first-round picks to the Raptors for Bosh.

(still can't believe nobody got the reference to the p-shop I did of them. The movie three kings, clooney wahlberg ice cube? three kings.. three queens? get it? HAHA? guess not.)


I'll try again LOL

The Heat gave up 4 1st round picks? Is this serious or a joke?

Sounds strange because you aren't allowed to trade first round picks 2 years in a row. This would have to stretch out to 9 years from now, starting with 2011 draft.

Heat gave up 2 firsts and 2 seconds to CLE and 2 firsts to TOR (one of which was their own from JO deal).

Gave up second rounder for Beasley.

Used to do that kind of photoshop work in my school poking fun at fellow staff member. Got in some trouble, though.

I hear that a letter from Princess LeBron's lawyer is in the mail.

The three Queens are screwed when one of them goes down with injury. And you KNOW it's going to happen. LeBitch talks about winning 7 rings? They will be lucky to win 1. Mark my words, this will be the biggest bust in NBA history.

That's crazy! With a lack of role players, they need their picks. The teams that are perennial contenders have stars but also have generally kept their picks over the years so that they can continue bringing in some young talent. Maybe they feel they'll bring in enough money that they can buy picks from other teams.

If each of the big three is taking a big paycut, then I assume they're not getting the max and I don't understand why S & Ts were even necessary. They're just handicapping the team they're going to.

They have HUGE trade value though. If the Heat decide just to keep Wade and Bosh, can you imagine what they'd get for Lebron (especially a Lebron who's not even on a max contract!)?!

I have not listened or read anything he said for a few days, and don't ever intend to. Did he actually say something about winning 7 titles??!!

Does he actually believe 7 rings will rehabilitate his rep- that doing what he just did to win more rings than certain other superstars will put him at, or above, their level.

I can't even believe he would talk about that # of rings because it would mean that he really does intend to compare himself to Jordan.

Do we have an idea of what their incremental salaries will be each of the 6 years.

Each year they will have less cap room to sign anyone else- right?And at the same time they will be losing their #1 every other year for the next how many years?

Miller is getting a 5/25 contract and Chalmers comes in at less than $1 M.

Roughly speaking you have about $ 48/49 tied up with James, Wade, Bosh, Chalmers, and Miller. They also have a few #2 picks to sign, I think.

So am I wrong to believe that they have about 9/10 million to fill out their roster.

I hope players don't give in and take less just to play with these clowns, but I expect that many will.

I'm happy about all it. Its great for the sport. Everyone hates Miami now, or they are jumping on that bandwagon. Just like MJs Bulls only its Wade and his pair of breasts in tow.

Teams like that can be beat, and can be beat with size, legnth and skill.

I think we are on the right track. We are building around Amare 6'10 and our two young guys who will be able to slide between 2,3,4 and 5. Both taller than 6'10, but very athletic (AR sickly so). Even Turiaf is a great defender and shot blocker.

Remember Detroit and how they ran that Lakers team out of the gym. If not for Fisher's miracle 3 the Pistons sweep what was being called on of the best teams of all time Payton/Kobe/Malone/Shaq

Look at how well Gallo and AR can defend smaller guys. We could put a crunch time line up of:
PG Felton - lightning quick
SG AR 6'11
SF Gallo 6'10
PF Amare 6'10
C Turiaf 6'10

Haslem is just as stupid as he looks , the guy is a double double foward and supposedly he is gonna take close to the minumum he could have done much better than that looks at what Drew Gooden got. This is appalling I Hate the Heat now more than ever even more than I did in 1997 .

haha great pic, but im not sure if Bosh is a queen, more like a princess. Queen LeDiva better hope D-whistle doesn't get injured as always.

7 rings my ass, try getting to 73 wins in a season first. As much as I hate MJ, at least there is a respect factor for him. There is none whatsoever for the three queens.

The min to play for the Heat? If so, I give him respect. That's a guy who actually does want only to win. It's different from Lebron taking *only* $110 mil to win.

Has anyone ever read the Aesop fable "Sour Grapes"?

Where was all this "queen," "bitch" and "diva" chatter last month?
