Many people think that Lebron’s future in Miami hinges on whether the Heat win their third NBA Championship as him as their leader, but ESPN is reporting that is not the case.
The Heat’s success or failure in these Finals will not affect LeBron James’ decision on whether to opt out of his contract by the end of this month, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.
Although the Finals series is not over, the past indicates the Heat would need to make a historic turnaround to win the title and even though sources say the outcome won’t ultimately affect Lebron’s decision, I think if the Heat lose in 5 games questions about the ability the win with the current roster will surely be in the back of his mind.
