I'm not an expert on cap stuff. but Vet min does not count against salary cap yes?

I think Iverson is one of the select few players who could actually hurt the Heat's chances at getting 5 straight titles... :D
All the best for tomorrow Miami Heat fans! I'll be hoping he chooses your great city :)

I still find it hilarious how knick fans are screaming foul and how its unfair and blah blah blah. But those same fans root for the yankees who try to buy a championship every year by outspending in a capless sport where it is totally an unlevel playing field and defend them saying that they are allowed to spend and its just good ownership

Finally browsed thru last night's tweets/posts/tidbits/etc.

So Charlie V said Bron's not going to CHI or MIA - He's either stayin, goin to NY, or NJ.

Ochocinco's hinting that he's going to NY.

Jared Dudley also claimed he has a serious source who said Bron's going to NY.

Jay Williams is saying he heard Bron will go to NY as well.

Chris Broussard says Miami, same with Alan Hahn.

Bucher still undecided.

A week ago, it seemed that Chicago was a lock...then days ago, staying was now the #1 option.

The media's playing this very well to get ratings for tonight.

We'll see! :pray:

ESPN Reporting "Multiple Sources" Indicating James to Miami 

Post#650 » by Mezotarkus » Thu Jul 8, 2010 11:35 am

Looking pretty good for you guys!

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5363055

All indications are that LeBron James is leaning toward signing with the Miami Heat on Thursday night, according to several sources with knowledge of the situation.

Barring a late change of heart, sources say James has decided to join fellow All-Stars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh to form a potential NBA powerhouse.

I don't believe any LeBron to Miami rumors until he really confirms it, especially after I heard that ESPN had "sources" who informed them about his decision. All they wanna do is get as many viewers as possible so I won't flatter myself, as much as I want it to happen. (and I'm everything but a fan of him).

I'm not sure why the rest of the league is mad lol. Its not official its just sources.

And LOL at Knicks fans who think that its a smokescreen to go to Miami, for LeBron to go to NY, but when Dudley tweets LeBron to Knicks, its legit. :lol:

Dudley is our team prankster. I totally agree about the NY Yankees post above. My Laker friends are crying foul. Ain't that a b&tch, they actually started it all with Gasol and Artest. LBJ,Wade and Bosh were FORCED to do it if they wanted to win a ring.

Don't let Kobe get 6.....EVER!

I went to the Bulls board to see how they were receiving their Boozer news, and offer congrats for picking up a heckuva player.

I was startled to see that at the start of their Boozer acquisition thread they were detailing who to add to become a serious title contender.

Their first choice and top option to complete their serious contender status? Anthony Morrow.
