    I think I respect Lebron a little more if he goes back to Cleveland. Would've respected the hell out of him more if he came here:p

    Some Second rounders and filler should get the job done.

    No team is going to make the moves that Cleveland is making without feeling extremely confident that LeBron is in fact coming. You have to think about what's going on behind the scenes. Pay attention to what is going on and not what is being said on twitter. I know in most cases it is not wise to assume but in the particular case with the overwhelming evidence and photo's that have been presented today we can safely conclude that LeBron is going to Ohio. Now time to trade Lin!!! ;)

    Can you offer a max contract to a player, if you dont have the max currently available? I guess I should ask, can we sign him before we have the room? What if we dont make the room in time and he just bolts?

    Rox had to make some moves last year after the agreement with Dwight, so i would assume so.

    Yes... but we are still talking about the Cavs.

    In 24 hours they will rightfully be viewed as brilliant.... or well, they will be humiliated to a level never seen in professional sports.

    For what it is worth, James isn't speaking to anyone.... there were reports that Carmelo Anthony has tried talk to James for the last week without any success.... ALL communication is being funneled through James' agent.

    Well, Houston traded Asik to N.O. and N.O. doesn't currently have the room...

    you can offer him anything you want... but if the space isn't cleared when its time to put pen to paper than you have a problem

    Does that mean we lose Daniels according to Bima?

    I have a question... if the Rockets have nobody on the roster except for the starting 5 and they are right at the cap, then how do they sign other players?

    I have the feeling with the recent news of Melo staying with the Knicks that these here dominos are going to fall pretty soon.. Hopefully we hear something by the end of the day as far as Bosh and Bron are concerned.

    Vet minimum deals and approximately $2 million roster exception known as the room exception.
