Miami Heat

OK, yes, this is the absolute unlikeliest of all the options that LeBron has on the table. But, as stated earlier, nothing is out of the realm of possibility and that includes a return to the team he originally bolted the Cavaliers for back in 2010 — the Miami Heat.

Although Dwyane Wade himself is threatening to leave the franchise if he doesn’t get what he wants, he and LeBron have sat down and figured things out before. So, who’s to say that these buddies can’t make it happen one more time.

And before anyone thinks that Pat Riley would be opposed to the idea because of how he was scorned last year, let’s remember that this is Pat Riley we’re all talking about, the man who’s obsessed with winning. He’d let those bygones be bygones and everyone would live in perfect Miami harmony once again.

Beginning his career in Cleveland, leaving Cleveland for Miami, leaving Miami to go back to Cleveland, and THEN going back to Miami would absolutely make LeBron James the most hated athlete of all time.

Again, though, while these are all fun to think about — he’s not leaving.
