LeBron vs Cleveland: The Hangover

It's finally over. LeBron has come and gone, and Cleveland is left with their jaws agape.The king was booed, heckled, and screamed at for 48 minutes as he casually dropped 38 points. Fans were ejected, an arrest was made, and an object was thrown. The Heat are home in Miami and the storm has passed. Now what?

LeBron can finally exhale. I am sure last night was emotionally draining for him, and he needs a little time with family and friends. After being around so much hate it will be nice to be around some supporters.

Wade can keep working on his play. He played great last night, and can must continue to be the slasher to the basket that we know and love. When Wade can play at the top of his game he offers a change of pace, a set of fresh legs, and yet another game changer in the Heat line up.

Bosh needs the rest just as much as anyone. He has to work for a lot of boards game in and game out, which could lead to a lot of wear and tear. With the small line up Miami has, his job has become extremely difficult (especially since Haslem is hurt). A day of rest before Atlanta could be just what the doctor ordered.

The Heat take on a strong Atlanta team tomorrow night, which could turn out to be a very tough game. The big 3 need to rest to make up for Miami's lack of depth (Especially LeBron, who has had an especially tough week). Hopefully today is enough to heal up any bumps and bruises suffered this week.

For Miami, I believe last night's game will be looked at as the turning point for their season. The Heat went into a hostile environment and destroyed their opponent. Now, they are fired up. Atlanta is known to play badly against better teams, and LeBron, Wade, and Bosh are hot. If the Heat can keep this up with this upcoming schedule they may be headed towards a double digit winning streak.
