    Lebron is holding up the show. What is there to wait on now that Riley has filled out his commitments?

    You think Danny Granger and Josh McRoberts were the big signings LeBron was waiting for?

    He obviously follows who he either a) believes is going to be a Rocket b) has as a target or c) is being mentioned as a potential target on national media. He is either a very open GM or a complete troll. Either way we are pretty lucky to have a cool GM.

    Woj finally woke up. :p But nothing related.

    Bad fit. Horrible 3 point shot.

    He should go to the Bulls for sure. Get rid of Boozer, and bring in Pau to help ease Mirotic's journey into the league.

    Good shot blocker though. Out front court defense would be the best in the league.

    Actually no. But given the rope Riley had, what more could have Lebron expected?

    Agreed, but even in a vacuum, why do people prefer Love? Bosh's defense is really getting undersold here. He is one of the better PnR defenders in the league for his position and is a plus defender overall. He makes our team's defense BETTER, not worse. Love, on the other hand, is terribad on defense. Dude is so out of position to grab those rebounds...all day err day.

    And is it because Love shoots 3's? 37% vs. Bosh's 34%? (granted Love takes like twice as many 3's as Bosh) -- we are fine on offense and shooting more 3's from our PF isn't THAT crucial. Bosh can shoot a few and spread the floor the same, while actually providing defense...

    It's something you don't really understand until you watch Chris Bosh play 82 games straight for a season. Dwight can cover a lot up but as far as me I'm speaking in reference of the rockets team needing to be tougher and adding him doesn't really do that but it does make the team better at a spot the team was less talented at. Pros and cons. THe three stars... Howard, Bosh or Harden who in this group mentally is the leader of a championship team?

    I appreciate that he doesn't make crap up like Broussard or Fathorse.

    I feel like were being used because these major FA's don't want to leave their respective teams, but they find us to be a great threat. This means they lead us on and take their time in order for us to miss out on other free agents ensuring we do not gain even more strength. It also gives their GM's time to work. They are all staying with their former teams.

    Looks like 3 people staring at my D, laughing at it. Wondering, "is that all there?", "OMG, so tiny." Probably how Bosh feels in Miami.
