Would Bosh be willing to go to Lebron-less CLE though?

Doubt it, but LeBron hasn't said he's leaving yet.

No he for sure wouldn't. The cavs only hope is to get them on the same team. (I'm starting to think Lebron might go to Miami with Wade and Bosh.)

We saw how the Celtics turned it around after forming KG, PP and RA trio. There is no reason why the Heat can't if Bosh, Lebron and Wade end up playing together. It's only an idea at the moment though.

The Celtics managed to set their egos aside because they were all older. There has been the rumor that the three could join in Miami with slight paycuts but I think the three of them can co-exist yet. Bosh said he wants to be the first option, but with that team be would be the third.

Though if they can co-exist as a team, Heat would be champs for years to come. :)

Right now I think it will be Lebron in CHI, Wade in MIA, Bosh in CHI and Amare in MIA. Hopefully Joe Johnson also joins the Heat.

Riley is interested in either Boozer or Amare if he can't get Chris Bosh. The salary demands of either Boozer or Amare will probably determine who Riley will get.

Wade clearly doesn't have a problem being 2nd man on the team, since the fans will always have him as their guy due to his loyalty on being a career Heat player. That's probably making other superstars like Lebron to legitimately consider the Heat as their option. Bosh will be fine being 2nd or 3rd though. He has been the first always ever since VC left the Raptors. It's his ego speaking that way(wanting to the 'man' again with the new team) due to being a superstar, but I doubt he wants to go to the team without a future just to be the 'man' again. As for Amare, he actually should be the guy, the case of "wanting to be the man" applies as Nash always overshadowed him in PHX.

I really do feel LeBron's going to Chi-Town. If he wants to win now, why go to the crapfest in NY with a defensively-challenged coach, when he can play with Rose and another top free agent?

lebron needs to team with another big name free agent, or 2 but not wade imo. if bosh really wants to be the number one option then not him either. i had thought that lebron and bosh with another top free agent to chicago makes them instant champs. still do not think he would mesh well with wade though

I always heard Bosh wants to be the number two guy to either Wade or James.

he should be. bosh would be a great 2. like i said if you add lebron and bosh to the bulls they will be a damn good team. would they have money left over if they gave both players a max to add a 3rd quality player?

Shit, I think LeBron, Bosh, Rose, Deng & Noah is enough. Look at what he did with his cast in Cleveland. That Bulls roster would be scary in the East.

they would but i think the bulls could still add another guy. there were talks about the bulls trading deng to the magic for pietrus and gortat? not sure if it will happen but i personally like it for the bulls.

I like it too, though I'm not sure the Magic would be keen on it.

Like you said in another thread Andrew, teams won't be seen lining up to acquire Deng.

the bulls are being reported as having room for one max contract & one near max contract. after that they could use the veteran's minimum to get some ring chasers

i like the rumored Orlando deal as well. the bulls do need a good defender/3pt threat at the SG position & the polish hammer provides much needed beef upfront

looks like Chicago is trying to sign D WADE to have leverage on LeBRON.


the sound you hear is Andrew trying not to cum in his shorts.

Actually, I'm less excited than you'd expect. Sure, I like the sound of it of course but I'm not getting my hopes up until names are on the dotted line.

Oh well, this place isn't as strict as I thought. Which is probably why shadowgrin is still around.

Wade considering the Bulls strongly is an interesting twist, especially after he slammed the organization during the playoffs.
