    I hope Bosh signs. (It ain't my money; what do I care?)

    And:

    I hope Dwight (and/or Harden) doesn't go, "Wait, more money than I get? AW HELL NAW!"

    Wait, I thought Bosh's max topped out at upper 80 million? I thought 96 million was Melo's max because of his salary the previous year?

    Whatever the correct dollar figure, let's hope he accepts so we can get this show on the road and let the pieces fall into place.

    In a battle of anything related to intelligence between Broussard and a rock, I'd have to think hard about betting against the rock.

    Between Broussard and BimaThug? My money's on Weiner.

    Bima is correct, not the tweet.

    It is right at 86M, not the 96M that is being reported.

    More Bima from last night....

    I thought in Melo's case his max contract (years and $/year) can be offered by being grandfathered in due to previous CBA. What rule is BimaThug referring to where the max is dictated by previous salary?
