    Like has been posted. We don't NEED a big free agent, but it would be nice. Struggling teams can give up more to get the bigger names.

    Because he doesn't have to? Lebron's brand loves drama. He always creates drama.

    I've never seen a man die on the court before.

    Gotta love Silver for thinking out of the box!

    Do they call this the Rocky Deal vs the Laker's Godfather Deal?

    Its happened before I dont know if during a NBA game but I remember Reggie Lewis dying on the court during a practice and Hank Gathers died during one of his college games.

    Stephen A. Smith literally said during the season, "Rockets will sign either Lebron James or Deandre Jordan this offseason."

    I guess you forgot about that huh... i didn't.

    I was being facetious about risking his life, guess that’s hard to read through my post. I am working under the assumption that he is cleared medically! Chris Bosh has a wife and kids so if he is up to making a comeback why shouldn’t we at least explore the option.

    We're the IT team now and one of the few teams willing to stand up to GS. Big difference.

    How do they get screwed? Only thing I can think of is losing CP3, Capela, and Ariza because we didn't offer them anything? But I don't see that happening at all.

    Hockey players have been cleared with the same condition using a new medicine regimen without issue.

    Not sure on why it's different with Bosh, but he says there's no issue.

    we have no cap space, and our assets aren’t good

    a small part of me still holds out hope for Lebron because I’ve been taught to never give up :(

    Doesn't seem like we're the IT team. Have yet to hear a rumor about ANY FA small or big wanting to join this team.

    I hope that you're right but I've heard more about us losing players than players coming here to chase rings.

    Where is the cap space? Wait for the off season to play out. Morey is a top 5 GM for a reason.

    If the NBA says he can play and a doctor will clear him I'd absolutely sign him for the minimum. Why not?

    I know that. I have no doubts about Morey's ability to make room to sign players.

    I have doubts that players want to come here on the cheap. I don't think we are the new Warriors in terms of getting ring chasers.
