    How the hell are we gonna sign Deng for at least $10 mil if we sign Bosh?

    We have to match Parsons if we sign Bosh.

    Bosh would have to be a real ass to allow that to happen

    Or maybe he just needs time to make the next biggest decision of his life? He will get flamed either way. And we actually would have to make it to the Finals to get in Lebron's way.

    I was kidding, I was just unsure if he meant Bosh would sign for the Rox for less or the Heat. I figured he meant the Rockets

    He corrected himself in a tweet after, saying just sign Deng as replacement for Parsons.

    If Dwight pulled even a 1/50 of this crap last offseason, the media would have his head and he would be constantly blasted. The fact that it's LeBron James makes everything okay, 'fun' even for some media members. Just sick of all of this BS.

    Bosh, time for you to man the fv*k up and make the decision like a man. It was cute you wanted the Big 3 to stay intact but the writing is on the wall; decide.

    No kidding. If I'm Morey, I give Bosh until the end of the day and then I start looking into Deng and Gasol seriously.

    I think lebron has bigger worries about getting in the way of his ring other than Houston. We'll have to get past our stacked west. he won't. I'm sure hes more initially worried about OKC/SA/LAC

    Any possibility Morey talks Bosh into taking a slight paycut so her gets like 18 million instead of 20? Little more money, able to keep parsons. Also can someone explain to me whether or not we have the MLE and Bi-Annual exception?

    He may be headed to Brazil, but I doubt he'd knowingly screw Bosh over like that.

    Either way, Morey must move on soon if he can't get a commitment from Bosh.

    I'm sure he's exploring all opportunities such as trading for an Ilyasova, R.Anderson, Millsap, or even Josh Smith then matching Parsons.

    Or if Bosh won't commit soon, signing 2-3 smaller FA's then matching Parsons.

    Interesting - and long - 72 hours.

    Lebron wants a spectacle. Doubt he drops the news on twitter.

    Maaaybe he'll use word of mouth to leak that he will decide on his website at a certain time.

    Not sure I would see it as screwing over Bosh, who has as much freedom to choose to do whatever he pleases. It's the nature of the beast, but I could see Lebron holding out through the weekend to get the most attention he could after the World Cup Final. If he goes to Cleveland, he's going to crave being branded a hero.

    Re: Bosh, Morey should just tell him he has until tomorrow or the offer will be adjusted or pulled. I think we are handing him too much leverage. And there's no way he could be more than the third option for the Rockets after being so indecisive and acting solely based on what Lebron was going to do.
