@Shaun11Rocket: @megastahr @clutchfans Jarrett Jack is now gone from Cavs they have 24 mil in capspace. Do you believe now? This guy tweeted me again. I obviously do believe with the move Cleveland just made
The S&T angle almost never works for top level players, because it requires too many moving parts and risks alienating even more people, which is why for example, it was never even a consideration for Dwight. They're clearing the space because Riley will say the same thing he's always said for Lebron, no. The exception to that came under the old CBA where the sign and trades weren't for the players per se (the space was there if they said no, no harm no foul), but assets for longer contracts.
Lol I guess not. D12 needs an attitude change. Until he gets pissed off for greatness....he will never win a ring. His playful attitude rubs people the wrong way.
Don't take that seriously please. Also note that Cyberx comes from the Laker camp obviously. Most of his info seems to come out of their camp. Of course his sources (if they are coming out of Lakerland) are going to say that everyone despises Dwight. (except half of these players that apparently hate Dwight were BEGGING him to play for their team last Summer mind you... so keep that in mind) If Bosh comes to Houston, its A. For the money, B. To join a contender, and C. To join a contender that wont make him play center where he can extend his career. If Bosh doesn't come to Houston its because of whatever happens with Lebron James & Miami/Cleveland/whatever. Just stop it with the whole "Nobody Like's our Stars" BS. Its a bunch of crap.
Well who is going to agree to that? Why would any team do a SnT of their star player for Waiters and Bennett?
My sources say LeBron is about to make a decision soon. LeBron to Cleveland appears to be gaining momentum. One of my sources say that...ok who am I kidding, my sources are just ESPN and Twitter.
The remarks attributed to cyberx about Bosh not really liking Dwight ..... I've heard the same thing from my source. Dwight is a problem around the league in that area. Multiple coaches feel the same way about him.
He might not like DH, but don't think it's that bad considering Bosh is "considering" our offer. He knows DH would help his game considerably
But that's not our fault as fans who support the team... That's not The Rockets fault or Heat's fault for not throwing more millions of dollars at them.... If they are broke by retirement they are doing something wrong.... Even a high school freshman can tell you that investing assets and finances is a big part of a bright future. He should already have a backup plan and if he cant figure it out I'm pretty sure he can buy any financial advisor/attorney/large company owner out there to make sure he has something concrete in order to live off of for the rest of his life. I'm pretty sure he is also making connections we would only dream of and that only makes life easier. Steve Francis can drink his millions away and that's okay.... But the only one to blame is Steve Francis.... Same with Iverson...... Same with any basketball player ever..... And we do agree but when Bosh comes I'm not sure I'm going to be all that happy knowing we were not his first choice and only coming here for the money ......... Its bittersweet... Even if he would make us that much better.... Maybe after the first few games all this drama will be forgotten...
They have 3 first round picks in 2015, Tristan Thompson, Dion Waiters, and Anthony Bennett to trade on top of huge savings by Haywood being the salary match tool going back. They have great pieces other than Wiggins to trade. That Miami pick without LeBron and Bosh around is a particularly intriguing asset. No way Minnesota gets a better offer than Thompson, Waiters, Haywood, Memphis's pick and that Miami (sans LeBron and Bosh) pick for Love and Martin. And that is probably more than they would need to pay.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong... but I don't think they'd have enough cap space for both LeBron and Bosh...
It's possible. But I don't know if Cleveland(or LeBron for that matter) wants to commit max dollars to Bosh for 4 years. Why not try to go after someone younger who's actually worth 20+ mil a season? We'll see. If Bosh takes far less money than the Rockets are offering to follow LeBron to the Cavs, then he truly is the dude's lapdog.

Yuck. If the Cavs don't get Lebron back after all of this, I truly do pity that franchise.
