Just stating a point. Lebrons a jerk. I bet he knows where he's going, he's just doing this to be a punk. I bet you care when this punk screws over the rockets. I guess drexler is a jerk too.
Good grief, this has become a huge soap opera. LBJ and these FA's are partly responsible for this circus, but us fans and the freakin media is as much to blame. Every fan is hungry for information. Lives are on hold because of it. The media responds by feeding the hunger and throwing crap out there that just makes the fan base speculate and want more speculation. It's a huge snowball and it's enough to make a fan that cares about their home team want to unplug from the circus and stop feeding the media frenzy. Sorry for the rant, I just really want what's best for the Rockets, but I hate that so much energy is wasted on this circus. /rant
Doesn't owe fans but you think a little respect toward his peers. His desicion determins where probable half a dozen people will be calling home next year. Nothing has changed since the McRobberts signing. Cavs roster hasn't changed since they made cap clearing moves to sign him. Heat got blown out and finals ended June 15th.
Thank you for including that last sentence. It hasn't even been a month since he got done playing in the finals. Would you want to commit you and your family to such a long period of time and possibly another move in less than one month prior to going through something so physically and mentally draining?
James, make your mind to save others time, such an annoying dude. It is not that difficult to choose a team, you are just acting like being an earth saver.
Is there a school of thought that LeBron is waiting for Rockets to make a move to acquire Bosh, so the Heat can sign 'Melo without looking bad? Perhaps the Parsons rapid-fire offer sheet was the action that allowed LeBron to delay his decision...
To be honest that's what I'm thinking. Give Bosh an ultimatum. "Sign the offer sheet in X amount of hours or we pull it and you wait praying that Lebron stays in Miami looking like a b****." I think parsons has to be re-signed even if we strike out on a free agent. This team was straight up pathetic on occasions without Chandler there holding things together.
Don't think anyone has really mapped this out yet. Just in our situation alone... Asik Trade Lin Trade Bosh Sign/SnT Parsons Match Dallas signs Luol Deng (if we match Parsons) Dallas uses bird rights or room exception to sign Vince Carter Other pending FA/Trades probably waiting: Kevin Love Gasol Carmelo Pierce Wade Stephenson Bledsoe Marion Lebron really is holding everything up.
If lebron and the heat want bosh out and melo in, they'd tell him by now knowing were up against the clock with parsons. They'd have some assistant tell him since Riley and lebron don't have the guys. They'd probably just have the assistant email bosh.
We're nearing the point where Morey has to do that. Bosh has to commit by tomorrow cuz the Asik and Lin deals still have to be made.
