It was the summer of 2010, and the NBA world was shocked. LeBron James announced he was taking his talents to South Beach to join the Miami Heat.
LeBron famously promised to bring the Heat: “Not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven,” championships.

This, of course, did not happen. LeBron did deliver two titles to Miami, and recently at the Basketball Hall of Fame ceremony, Heat owner Micky Arison poked fun at LeBron.
“In 2010, with Dwyane, LeBron and Chris Bosh, we knew we could win. Not one, not two… I guess it was just two,” Arison joked.
It was all in good fun as even LeBron couldn’t help but laugh. Ultimately, the Heat have not won a title since LeBron left, while King James won two. This includes defeating the Heat in 2020 as a member of the Los Angeles Lakers.
