The Heatles Photoshops

"We call ourselves the Heatles," LeBron James said after a 96-82 win in Charlotte, the seventh in Miami's current run of nine straight victories. James was referring to the Heat's ability to sell out "99.1 percent" of their road games, and probably was speaking to the larger than life image that both the media and themselves have worked so hard to try and create.
It's 2011, and you know what the means. Any comment, figure, or situation that is even mildly amusing gets its own wave of photoshops. "The Heatles" are no exception.





These two photoshops, referencing The Beatles' second album, 1964's Meet the Beatles! may look familiar (scroll all the way up). Just thought I would point that out, to prove I do come up with a good idea from time to time. Ignore the fact that these two examples are clearly superior to my own. You'd probably like me a little less if the layout was the highlight of this blog -- which it very well may be.
The only gripe I have is with Juwan Howard's inclusion. Was he the only one with a photoshop-friendly pose? Wouldn't Big Z, or even Eddie House have made a better Ringo?
That's the beauty of the Heat -- three important pieces, and the rest of the parts are interchangeable. Maybe LeBron's Beatles comparison wasn't so far off.
