Has there been any word on if Bosh is signing outright with Miami or if it's a sign and trade? Or do we have to wait until Lebron's announcement? Just wondering. I'm hoping it's the latter.

In any case, I'll definitely be watching the Heat now. Should be very fun watching the US Olympic team (pretty much) in Miami.

i believe the HEAT are waiting are the Lebron situation before they work on contracts with Bosh and Wade.

Can you guys imagine..

Tied Game.. 4 seconds left.. Miami Ball..

Being the opposing coach is going to suck during that type of situation.

No real news

My opinion is that it depends on Lebron. If we get him, all will take less, and we will use Beasley as trade bait for a pg or center

If Miami does not get Lebron, I think both Wade and Bosh get the max, ie a sign and trade with Toronto. I am not sure if Beasley is included though. We may see him as a sf, give him to Toronto for cap space, or look for trade him for another piece

either way, Toronto will do what we want. Sounds bad, but look at the terms of the sign and trade with NYK and Pheonix. Pheonix is giving picks and cash to NY in order to get that trade exception. I think Toronto will actually get something, but what we want you to have. And probably your first back

Source told FOXSports.com Miami Heat have offered Mike Miller 5-year deal worth 27-30 million with a deadline tonight. Tweet from Jeff Goodman.

Man, Bill Simmons is so bitter. He must be realizing this is just putting more pressure on the already closing Boston window.

Tim Leger was asked who take the ball 3 seconds left on the clock, and he said...

Chris Bosh .....nah Im just kiding.. he said Wade, and I agree.

He said LeBron would relish the oppurtunity of a player to take the pressure off of him to be able to want to take the last shot.A player that proved he has what it takes the be a closer in late games and in the highest state in the Finals, with a ring to prove it.

sources also said LeBron bought 6 cabanas to celebrate his new team move in South Beach. I don't believe **** until 9:08.

uhhh....

Miller has been told by Miami that the team is "confident" LeBron is coming. Miller could likely earn more money with New York Knicks.

about 9.1 it looks like. However it could be smaller as maybe the deal isnt flat and its annually increased by 10.5%

Probably yeah, roughly $8 mil to start. That's actually not a bad price for him.

9-10m is too much to sign a 8 and 10 Center whos 29 with barely any offensive game,, good luck to him.

No, I think that's pretty much the reality of the situation, especially since it seems Wade and Bosh are both fine with taking less money to get "you know who" to come to Miami. Totally destroys any notion of Bosh absolutely wanting a 6th year max. Anyway, should be fun at 9 pm to 10 pm.

I don't know about other teams, but I would personally love to see Bosh-James-Wade on one team.
