What do the Heat need to do to become NBA champs again?

First get a young energetic back-up for Shaq, play the backup early and often, make sure he can run and defend. This year the Heat looked tired and the offence was stale. It has been a long time since Shaq could be counted on, not his fault the years have taken their toll. I say when Shaq is in the game the ball should go into the post. Get Shaq maximum shots in minimum minutes or let him rest a little keeping him on the weak-side in position for offensive rebounds. Try to keep him fresh never play him when he is fatigued. Do what is needed to get personel who can run and defend when Shaq is out. Must be able to adjust tempo according to opponent and situation, they had big problems last year with that, most of those vets looked like old dogs who couldent learn new tricks. Generally go younger. I think Wade needs to take more jumpers to give himself a chance to get hot from the outside, he has a great stroke and can shoot over anybody(he will last longer and have more in the tank come playoff time), Haslem and Shaq can hit the O-boards. Time to quit thinking about building around Shaq, get help for Wade, players who can keep up.

get a new PG, young guy would be good.

keep wade,shaq,haslem, and have different starting PG and SF. daequen cook will be good backup SG but maybe he could become the young SF. just younger guys in the PG and Sf

Stay Healthy Stay Strong Shaq and Zo aren't old, they can Help Dwayne Wade to win another title.
they need shaq to be younger jst like his glory days in LA. and all their veterans, they need to be younger even for jst 5 yrs.
Primarily, they need to stay healthy. Yahoo! Sports just reported they lost Jason Kapono to Toronto, but James Posey and Daequan Cook should be able to replace his one-dimensional game. Wade got hurt last year, then Shaq, and even Pat Riley missed games because of hip surgery. Shaq has been working hard all summer and looks to be back in form, and Wade has been recovering well from shoulder and ankle surgery. Expect the Heat to compete in the East as long as they stay healthy. As long as they have Shaq and Wade, they can compete with the West's best teams.
me
a DEFENSIVE MINDED player... not another guy who has made a career out of scoring 20 pts per game (walker, payton, etc.)
release their older players (eddie jones, jayson williams, gary payton and alonzo mourning) then get younger guns that would help wade and shaq...
DISCLAIMER : I'm a disgruntled MAvs fan and may be a bit biased.

Well other than retaining payton and haslem they need to bring in some youth. I think the team has great players that can mentor the youngsters in to good players. They also need to look at what will they do after shaq is gone and his skill deminishes......... Wade and his arm are another point of interest, he MUST get rest and condition his shoulder to its peak.

Lastly they need to make sure they get all the help from the ref and get all the non exsistant calls to screw other teams. A soft/pansy team like the 06 mavs in the finals would help too.

(sorry couldnt resist, had to get that one in)
stay healty and a good bench
Youth. I think the Heat need to begin to rebuild around Wade. The team's old and getting older. Long process...
