Miami Heat Losing Streak

I see a big difference in the way the Miami Heat play with Lebron James and without Lebron James. This Heat team relies on King James to win ball games, not only do they lean on Dwyane Wade and/or Chris Bosh. With Lebron out with a left ankle injury, the Heat succumbed to losses to teams like the LA Clippers and the Denver Nuggets, giving up 111 points and 130 points, respectively. If I were the Miami Heat and defining success easily, I would not give up hope that the Heat can win ballgames without Lebron James. Dwyane Wade commented that they were clearly missing their team captain and floor leader. I can see very clear that Miami took their success early enough in the season for granted, knowing that the Heat have a trio of superstars in Chris Bosh, Wade, and James. With James out now, Miami clearly has to lean on Wade and Bosh to bail them out of ball games now. I wonder if this is a losing streak because the Heat don't have Lebron James playing for them or if they are just riding the coattails of their three superstars. Either way, I see the Heat falling apart as a team and just not playing like a real basketball team now. They are scrambling for basketball plays and just not uniting as a team on the offensive and defensive end. If I were to describe the Miami Heat as a team now, "falling apart."
