$85 million with the Rockets or $118 million with the Heat. Not a difficult decision if you want the money! Houston laid an egg this summer!!!

I am predicting Deng OR Ariza to Miami now

and

ROFL to Houston -- LOSERS

ALSO LOL to Lakers

You get Lin and NO - Melo has crossed Lakers off his list per ESPN or at least saw it on ESPN

They traded Lin, Asik, and a first, for the right to keep Parsons. Gold.

Bad move by Miami too IMO. They should have sent Bosh To Cleveland for Wiggins and their pick back, then let Wade walk and rebuild around Wiggins, Napier, and Lotto picks.

This is gold. Miami still has cap space to compete with Houston on free agents, so does LA, and Houston only have a day and a half until they lose Parsons for nothing or have to use their cap space on him.

Hahahahahahahahahaha.

Suns and Kings working on a S&T

Sending Thomas to the Suns for -- TBD

I like the Suns move but are they now the Wolves -- Bledsoe , Thomas and Dragic ??

How many PG's do they need

Case2012 · Post #31 » by **Case2012** » Fri Jul 11, 2014 10:30 pm

Maybe they're sending back dragic.

They will only get a trade exception and the rigths to a guy who will never play in the NBA.

just like with the Aldridge to Cleveland idea, the flaw is assuming either Bosh or Aldridge would agree to re-sign there. I think almost certainly Aldridge wouldn't, and the latest news about Bosh probably means he wouldn't either

meanwhile Love reportedly has agreed. And this is the 2nd straight summer Cleveland has made a big push for Love. I serioulsy doubt they'd trade Wiggins for anybody but Love

I think the Suns are going to let Bledsoe walk. Have to think Miami or Houston are the favorites to get him.

Ish Smith and Ennis are nice young guards, but a 3-guard high octane rotation of Dragic (UFA next year), Bledsoe, and Thomas fits Phoenix. They've got Goodwin as a young SG and Green and Tucker at SF (Warren as their rookie SF).

Letting Frye go leaves them the Morris twins at PF. Len and Plumlee are the bigs (though Plumlee can play PF).

They wanted Love and I'm sure they still do. They have extra future picks. Minnesota doesn't need Bledsoe, but I'm guessing a third team wanting Bledsoe … with the right pieces … nets Phoenix Kevin Love.

I really don't see them letting Bledsoe just walk.

Alright so the rockets cap is loaded up next season and no bosh AND no chance at making a run at la now. I love Cuban for flipping off the rockets with parsons's big deal. I love it when a plan backfires!

I think Atlanta signs Bledsoe if not phx. I wouldn't mind if he goes to Houston, he doesn't compliment that team too well anyways.

? I meant that Bosh would have to agree to the sign and trade, and since he loves playing with LBJ so much, I don't think that was out of the realm of possibility.

Aldridge is a different story altogether. But if Cleveland agrees to the trade then it is what it is. Having said that, it's a completely different situation since Aldridge is content here and Love is not in Minny.

Still, I doubt any player in the league would refuse a deal that lets them be Robin to LBJ's Batman. And netting the best prospect since LBJ on a rookie salary is move you don't balk at from Portland's perspective.
