    I could probably buy all of the empty and available billboards in Cleveland.

    Remember when Lebron had supposedly rented space at a club or something in Miami for his after party? Reminds me a little of that type of rumor.

    I think at this point all the important players in this know what's going down. It's just a matter of breaking the news to the respective organizations.

    KLove to Warriors
    Bron to Cleveland
    Wade to Chicago
    Melo and Gasol to Knicks
    Bosh to Houston
    Lowry to Raptors
    Felton to Mavericks

    Sounds good to me.

    I have always been open to the Bosh option. Am liking it more and more thinking about it. Just really fits nicely on our team.

    When everything begins to link someone to a city. It to me becomes clearer that LeBron is on the way to Cleveland.

    Last year we had the barber, we had the realtor and we had Doc repeadetly saying that Dwight was coming.

    Everything is going the same way for Cleveland this year. LeBron keeps stuff under locks generally and these little tidbits are going to be the best sources you get before the deal is done. Not the Wojs or the Amicks.

    I really think Bosh will be a Rocket next season. I think we are going to be a real contender with him. He's the missing link.

    Rockets sit and wait for free agent seeds to sprout

    [rquoter]Finally, the big guns of NBA free agency moved a day closer to being closer to doing something.

    With much of the league’s free agents, and many of the teams, waiting for a game-changing domino to fall, LeBron James and his support staff scheduled a Wednesday sit-down with Heat president Pat Riley and the rest of the Heat brass.

    There was little reason to think the meeting in Las Vegas would be an exit interview. It could, however, lead to resolution not just of the decision for the NBA’s best player, but for a long list of players that could be ready to make their moves once James makes his.

    For the Rockets, still “on hold” on Tuesday according to a person with knowledge of their recruiting efforts, that could bring resolution to their hopes to land a third star.

    Carmelo Anthony had not given the Rockets or the other teams he visited a decision a week after he began his tour of suitors. There have been reports that he was most likely to narrow his choice to remaining in New York, where he has starred for three-plus seasons, or moving to Los Angeles, where lives in the off-season. But with no announcement well after the long holiday weekend, there was also the possibility to that he was waiting to see how things shake out in Miami.

    Chris Bosh was still weighing the max contract offer he received from the Rockets on Monday. Bosh’s decision, in particular, is likely to be tied to James’. Bosh had been clear through the season that he hoped to remain in Miami, but if James is ready to move on, Bosh could, too, with the Rockets jumping in to give him that option.

    Bosh was entirely non-committal in his talks with the Rockets on Monday, but there is also a hope that the longer the indecision drags on, the more attractive the Rockets’ offer would look.

    While the max contract free agents set their own timetable – Dwight Howard reached his decision by July 5 last season – the next echelon waits just days before the NBA moratorium end and players may begin signing contracts on Thursday.

    The Rockets have allowed Chandler Parsons, a restricted free agent, to let the market play out. That could be another indication of their plans to match any offer he receives, as they have often said of their plans. But Parsons, as with Luol Deng, Pau Gasol, Paul Pierce and the other free agents expected to receive offers well in excess of exception money, will be targeted by some of the same teams chasing the max-contract free agent s.

    For now, they wait. There is a lot of that going around.[/rquoter]

    He lost his connections when he left ESPN. He has been wrong a lot and I think is trying to just break a story to revive his sagging career.

    I don't think there's little doubt Lebron is going to Cavs at this point.

    As someone said, this was exactly like the situation last year with Howard with random bits of information that pieces together.

    hopefully that means Bosh is coming

    I might be reaching, but feel like this is worth posting. Frankie Walker is VERY close with LeBron... he's the son of LeBron's childhood mentor and a guy who moved from Akron to Miami with him. They do a lot of business together... here's a story detailing that relationship.

    http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/s...on-james-support-system-is-his-childho/nN29H/

    Anyway, an hour ago, he posted this caption on his Instagram:

    http://instagram.com/fwalker03

    And while it's always possible he could be trolling, the caption he posted during Game 4 of the NBA Finals (last game in Miami) does not suggest someone who's particularly thrilled with LeBron's situation in Miami.

    Might be nothing, but just trying to read the "tea leafs" as best I can. ;)

    The plan is to seal Bosh with the greatest ever PF coach, and then fire the coach before he could do any damage to a great squad.
