I hope Lebron goes back to Cleaveland!! Even if we don't get Bosh with no big 3 in Miami and with the Spurs one year older there's hope for us to win a championship.
Not insinuating anything, but I bet a small part of Morey is thrilled at the thought of his hometown Cavs getting LeBron back.
9 days is holding free agency period hostage? I think it's crazy how impatient everyone is. If he waited until late august to make a decision that would be different, but the free agents have barely had any time. Thats why i don't get why eveyrones expecting something to happen so soon
Normally, the big names have already committed to teams by now. 9 days is not a lot of time, but relative to the way free agency normally plays out, it is. Think about guys like parsons who don't make much compared to other players. I bet guys like him want this to get done with so they can start planning their futures.
Depends on how much Cleveland can offer. You have to think Cleveland would immediately turn their attention to Bosh if they land LBJ.
Morey should go ahead and withdraw whatever he offered to Melo. BTW, Lebron is not going to NY, so Melo better stop smoking that good chit.
IDK, maybe the scrubs since they are the last ones to get picked up but the good players will get paid one way or the other in my opinion.
Well we match up well against the Spurs but we have to be able to get past the Thunder and apparently even the Trailblazers to advance. We need to upgrade somewhere for that to happen and Bosh, I believe, would go a long way toward making that happen.
I wonder what else Bosh needs to see/hear to realize that Lebron is not pressed about playing with him?
Ole Phil has nothing---NOTHING---to entice teams to take on Amar'e Stoudemire's Frankenstein corpse and salary. And Bargnani's salary. And... If Carmelo is hoping for Bron in NY, he's delusional.
Bosh sure did pick a great time to go on vacation. Has the whole summer, and he picks to go right when free agency kicks off. Morey should show how bad he really wants him by flying to Sri Lanka, renting an elephant, and riding out to whatever jungle he's in, and then give him his customary iPad. Get it done Morey
CB4: "But...but...I LOVE you, LeBron!" LBJ: "But I don't love you. Look, don't cry. Take the money in Houston. Be happy. You'll forget me."
Actually if lebron goes to Cleveland I'm the most worried about Miami. They now have lots of cap space and bosh loves it there (obviously more with lebron). What if the heat tells him we're gonna make you option 1 - be our main max guy and give him 5 years at the max? Bosh might listen to Riley. After all, who else are the heat going to offer the money to (unless they want to keep their powder dry for next year. Most of the big free agents will be off the board.
I agree with you on that, I would love Bosh on our team. Just trying to stay positive regardless of the outcome.
Lebron can go to ANY team and say he wants to play there and they will trade anyone to give him the max. Bosh will only get the max from a handful of teams. By all reports Riley did try and get Bosh to take a pay cut and it's gotten him Mcroberts and Granger. You say "how many times does Bosh have to say..." But then argue that none of this has come straight from his mouth. You're right, we don't know how he prioritizes the big 3 of money, Lebron, and Miami but everyone knows that's what he wants and he told the Rockets that "straight from his mouth." Bosh following Lebron is a possibility but so is Lebron signing with the suns. You also have to take in account Lebron wanting to play with Bosh. I just don't see them playing together if Lebron leaves the Heat. If Bosh doesn't take a pay cut to stay with the heat and help the team get better then no way he takes a pay cut to play in freaking Cleveland.
