Fixed (with a less biased point of view).

Players that want to make as much money as possible before the lockout. Obviously Shaq has already made enough money, but it's not like he can play 40 minutes a game at even a decent level.

The Raptors weren't even a choice!
But I think I can safely say that the Heat are my new favorite team because Bosh is with them now and he was my favorite player up until now!
GO HEAT!

So you're going to pretend you were a Raptors/Bosh fan to justify your bandwaggoning.

The best player they ever got to compliment LeBron was get Shaq last year. Freaking morons...the fans shouldn't be mad at LeBron, they should be asking for the Cavs's GM's head (no clue who he is but he clearly doesn't know how to build a team around one of the best players ever).
I've always liked Wade, and Bosh being my favorite player on my now-tied-for-favorite team...they're guaranteed a championship.
It's not so much that he changed teams, tho that is a fanbase that's had more than its share of heartache.
It's that he made such a big production out of it: talking about it for years, doing a bunch of interviews right in the middle of the NBA Finals (a trick that people absolutely ripped A-Rod for when his agent pulled the same shit a few years ago), having NBA owners come kiss the ring in Cleveland, that appalling spectacle tonight (which was just wrong on so many levels that my brain's about to explode, but there's something just wrong about telling several million people to go f*ck themselves on national TV).
To recap, he fucked over his biggest fans, became the poster child for arrogant asshole athletes, alienated basketball fans like me that didn't even have a dog in the fight... and for what? The Heat's defense will be lousy, they'll have to get really lucky to get any halfway decent role players, it'll take awhile for lebron/wade/bosh to gel, all three will have to play huge minutes (I put the over/under on Wade's games played next season at 55), and their best-case scenario is getting murdered by the Lakers in the finals.
btw, if you haven't read Dan Gilbert's rant, it's a thing of beauty.
And I dunno when this turned into some kind of referendum on Kobe, but I find it funny that the only people that compare him to MJ are the people that do so to tear down Kobe. He's not MJ, he's Kobe, an entirely different sentient being that happens to work in the same profession. Sheesh.

After witnessing his poor performance over the past few games, can we boldly declare that LeBron really is not as AWESOME as so many people perceived him to be?
