Now the Pelicans need to dump around 100k in salary to take on Asik. So Parsons and Bosh to Houston is likely happeningAdrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 2m
The Rockets finalizing Jeremy Lin, a future first-round pick and other draft considerations to the Lakers, league source tells Yahoo.
Cool. Lakers making moves already. Trading for Lin.http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/11203475/carmelo-anthony-new-york-knicks-chicago-bulls-free-agency
Looks like they can start assembling that team because Melo isn't going to LA.
Not really. They have him under contract for another year, so there is no rush to move him right this minute. They can trade him during the year leading up to the deadline or wait until FA and do a sign and trade.The Cavs should just play hard ball for Love. He's not resigning with Minnisota, so why should they trade the farm to get him, they have the leverage.
If Wiggins is going to be as good as expected, just stick with him. Love is not Karl Malone.Yeah, it's not like Cleveland is the only team looking to get Love. Boston should still be in the running, for one. They just have to bide their time and fish around for the best deal. I don't think anyone expected Orlando to come out of the Howard trade with the best return a year later, but they managed it.
Lebron handled this in a much classier way, so most people have no reason to be upset.I was reading tweets from Heat fans, and was thinking that they were taking this in a more classy manner than a lot of Cavs fans did four years ago. Then I saw this:
I think it also has a lot to do with all of those bandwagon Heat fans just saying, "Eh, whatever." rather than Cleveland fans who actually gave a shit.Lebron handled this in a much classier way, so most people have no reason to be upset.
The playoffs probably helped too. Fans saw that Dwayne Wade was practically done and that LBJ had to basically take on the Spurs by himself in the Finals. That probably cemented it to the fans that the team was going to break up.I think it also has a lot to do with all of those bandwagon Heat fans just saying, "Eh, whatever." rather than Cleveland fans who actually gave a shit.
Yeah, his letter touches on the uproar last time:I think it also has a lot to do with all of those bandwagon Heat fans just saying, "Eh, whatever." rather than Cleveland fans who actually gave a shit.
Source?Bosh will be re-signing with the Heat for 5 years $118 million. Really shocked, I thought he'd go for the rings.
Lakers re-sign Nick Young for 4 years $21.5 million. Lol Lakers
Source?
As, a Heat fan I'm not too surprised, you could tell by his attitude in the NBA finals that he was tired of carrying the Heat. I wish him well, but I don't think the Cavs will do much next year.
If the Bulls can get Mello, than they would be the team too beat in the East. The Pacers are also going to be a tough out, not to mention the stacked western conference.

Chris Bosh is finalizing an agreement to return to Miami on a five-year, $118M deal, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

With Bosh back, Miami is trying to complete shorter deals with Dwyane Wade and Udonis Haslem, league sources tell Yahoo.
They needed a wing/SF, and everybody is getting overpaid this offseason. Would have preferred the 4th year being a team option and it's a far cry from Melo, but they still need to field a team for next year. Plus I wouldn't say Young was underperforming at all last season. Good guy to have coming off the bench and spot Kobe some minutes. Him and Meeks were two of the few bright spots and Meeks is getting paid almost as much for only 3 years.Bosh will be re-signing with the Heat for 5 years $118 million. Really shocked, I thought he'd go for the rings.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi4OTbACwXoFinally at long last the nba can finally stop rigging the draft for Cleveland. All though if somehow bulls land gasol+Stephenson/melo and derrick returns to form, they actually become the team with free finals trip in the east. So is there video yet of the 4 total fans in Miami burning jerseys yet.
You're joking, right?Finally at long last the nba can finally stop rigging the draft for Cleveland.
I don't think it's too late for Bennett to turn it around. He had a bad start due to an injury and being out of shape while missing Summer League and Pre-Season games, so he went into the season in the worst possible way. He started turning it around later on last season once he got more playing time and had some nice games before an injury sidelined the rest of his season. From what I've heard, he's been working out and has lost weight, so he should be in much better shape to do better this season.Well, Lin should do quite well being reunited with Mike D'Anto.....
Oh, shit.
And I don't know if Bennett can be redeemed, but Minnesota would be foolish if their negotiations didn't start and end with at least Wiggins. Cavs have enough first overall picks. Throw someone else one for once.
This goes into the (I think Bill Simmons's) philosophy of never trading a dollar for 4 quarters. Bennett and a late first rounder? Get out of here, Cleveland. (Not that Love is gonna make it easy for the T'Wolves. Zero playoff appearances and being a pain on the way out? Oh, how they must wish they had received some of that patented David Stern lottery magic that year instead of Chicago.)
Yup def rigged draft so they could get all those picks...Sad thing is Lebron is never going to win in Cleveland..so thanks for the 2 rings Enjoy never winning again with THAT owner who trashed you along with that fan base..Finally at long last the nba can finally stop rigging the draft for Cleveland.

Dan Gilbert should be counting his lucky stars for being a dipshit, burning bridges with clients and they still end up coming back only because they have more love for the city than the team.
Hope not. It was all the phantom fouls on Wade that robbed us of the title in 06...Dallas reached out about Wade, i truly doubt thats even remotely happening
Eh-oh-ElYup def rigged draft so they could get all those picks...Sad thing is Lebron is never going to win in Cleveland..so thanks for the 2 rings Enjoy never winning again with THAT owner who trashed you along with that fan base..
Why? They should take any job they can get lolIf you committed before july 10 can you reneg on the signing?. One would think Granger and mcbob no longer want their deals since lebron is no longer on the team
Gasol would have been awesome on the spurs not sure if they could afford himAdrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA 10m
Pau Gasol, Chicago working to complete an agreement, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
Should have gone to the Spurs =/
