LeBron James will play some point guard for the Miami Heat. So will Dwyane Wade, as he has throughout his NBA career. Mike Miller will likely do some ballhandling as well.
Thing is, none of them are true point guards.
And that means this Heat summer of change still has some things left to address -- particularly finding a starter at the point spot.
Mario Chalmers is under contract, Carlos Arroyo is expected to re-sign with the Heat and there's some talk of a possible Miami reunion with 2006 title-team point guard Jason Williams. Whomever it is, the next starter for the Heat will inherit the keys to what could be one of basketball's most dynamic offenses with Wade, James and Chris Bosh.
Chalmers' offseason took a hit when he badly sprained his left ankle while working out earlier this month, and he could be in a cast for up to three more weeks. When training camp opens in late September, he's expected to be fully ready to work.
"I think Mario is someone we're going to depend on a lot,'' Wade said.
