    They could easily lead you on to believe that too.

    Regardless, Bosh and LeBron have been on vacation for most of that time period with Bosh still on vacation right now (I think it was reported he was going for like 20+ days).

    If Bosh does get "kicked out" I wonder which one media will make a bigger deal about, Lin's jersey # or Bosh stuff

    Cavs just signed Irving to a $90 million deal. They have the same problem Miami does...how to fit all 3 under the cap with Lebron demanding a max contract.

    In other words....it ain't happening.

    Looking through his instagram, the guy looks like a fun loving guy. He'd definitely fit in with our team. He and Dwight look like they could definitely create bunk beds for the extra room for activities.

    Is this the reason Browns drafted Manziel? To land Lebron?

    /sarcasm

    Why not? 90/5 is only 18/yr. Lebron's max would be like 24/yr right? With a projected cap of 80 mil in a few years, they could backload it and still fit under the cap fine. 3 twenty a year guys still leaves them 20 to spend on 10 other players.

    I'm pretty sure Irving's cap hold for next season is 7 million, add 4 million for Wiggins and then everybody else can be traded.

    Can anyone think of a legitimate reason Carmelo could be taking this long if it didn't have to do with the prospect of playing with LeBron?

    Money and Glamor vs Winning? Or maybe the Lala factor?

    -Far-fetched enough, probably waiting on VH1 to get back to Lala to see which location would be best for the show.

    -Possibly waiting on Jordan to see which market would be best fit for marketing.

    -Couple that with his many options, I don't see how this is an easy decision.

    -Add in his relationship with JR, it's a long and tough decision.

    -Add in who his agent also represents since they have some tight brotherhood and he brings people to where he plays.

    LA/Chicago/New York all have damaged good, those are really the only cities in the running as far as La La is concerned

    Bring on the Bosh!
