It has now been 22 1/2 months since LeBron James abandoned his home state to take his talents to South Beach. He did so in the hope of winning championships with a better supporting cast. What he didn’t anticipate was how much weaker that supporting cast would become if one of the big three were to miss time due to injury, which is exactly what the Heat are going through right now.

Yesterday was another morning after for LeBron James. The morning after James played the entire second half, defended every position on the floor except center and collected 28 points, nine rebounds, six steals and five assists, doing all he could to pick up the slack for missing All-Star teammate Chris Bosh and struggling superstar teammate Dwyane Wade, who missed 14 shots, including a potential go-ahead layup in the final minute.

MIAMI – If you are Chris Bosh, there’s got to be part of you hoping the Miami Heat goes down in flames in your absence. There’s gotta be. I’m not saying it’s a large part. Maybe it’s just a tiny part. It’s human. It’s OK to be human. It’s OK to want to be missed.

Vinny Del Negro is under contract for one more season, but it is a team option. And mercurial owner Donald J. Sterling has a checkered history when it comes to making commitments to coaches — and even when it comes to making good on his prior commitments, such as when Bill Fitch had to take him to court to get the remainder of the money that Sterling owed him. In this interview with CineSport’s Noah Coslov, SheridanHoops.com editor-in-chief Chris Sheridan says Del
