Author’s Notes:
So I guess I’m back. I’m trying for a 3rd Sports Timeline. My previous two did run out of steam before I could finish them in time, but for this one I made a promise to myself, and to any readers that I will be finishing it, even if it takes me 6 weeks/months/years etc. I also am trying to avoid giving myself deadlines for every update as I did before, gives me more time to do as I please with it. Anyway, this time around I’ll be taking a second chance at a NBA one, going for my home town team in the Miami Heat. As the title should elude you too, they won’t be getting Lebron as they did OTL, and try to keep their success. So for now enjoy the short introduction to the piece and the first season will be up some time soon.
