HAVANA (The Borowitz Report) - Fidel Castro's decision to make a rare television appearance tonight means that the Cuban leader is about to sign with the Miami Heat, a consensus of NBA insiders believe.

Former NBA great Charles Barkley is only one of a chorus of experts who expect Castro to join Dwayne Wade, Chris Bosh and LeBron James in the star-studded Heat lineup.
