What it eventually boils down to is players 4-8 on both NY and Miami are so weak that they can't really be depended on to contribute consistently because they just arent good players.
Miami needs a strong voice (new coach) and a facilitator. The coach is probably coming unless they get to the Finals. The facilitator will be tougher to find.

The thing is, Wade and Lebron both need the ball to be effective. Lebron has never played in an offense that didn't run through him. Wade is going to have to play off of Lebron in order for this thing to work. Those two guys aren't going to allow for a facilitator in the classic sense. They are going to need someone that can guard the quicker point guards and stand there and hit a three off the catch. Lebron and Wade aren't exceptional three point shooters so having a guy that can consistently knock down an open three would be important so that their spacing is right.
The league needs to think about contraction and they really need to work on player development. The league has regressed at a rapid pace over the last few years.
