YES YES. S&T Deng for Bron
Sign Bosh or Wade

Anyone else catch, shortly after the game ended, Avery Johnson trying to sell NJ as Lebrons landing spot? What a joke. He was slobbering all over Lopez, Harris, and Yi, saying how it was a better fit for James than Chicago. He said he didnt think LBJ would mesh well with Rose. Did I mention Johnson is in the running for the NJ coaching job? :)

honestly i think you guys have a pretty legit shot at lebron...i dont buy NJ at all

NY maybe but only if he can convince bosh to go there

ii doubt that you guys can land lebron and another max because i doubt cle would take back a big contract in deng since they would be in rebuilding mode at that pt

i could see this

lebron-chi
wade-mia
bosh-mia (sign and trade for beasley, cook)
johnson-mia
amare-phx
boozer-ny
gay-ny

still dont know if bosh or amare lands in miami but i think one of them will
either way the mia/chi rivarly should be back

NJ could be big...

Jay's involved

They're in Brooklyn in two years

Harris
Lopez
T. Williams
C. Lee
Top Pick

Any coach he wants

I think he lands here if he leaves but NJ has to be involved.

^ its ambitious but we would have the cap for it in that scenario

we can sign wade, bosh and have 9 mil left

if we trade off beasley, cook thats an extra 7 mil

or cook/jones and a 1st is an extra 4 mil

i dont think joe will get more than 13

its not so far fetched

Tech9 told me nobody knows except Lebron. He hates Lebron, doesn't want Lebron due to his hatred towards LBJ. I guess we'll see

Boston Celtics fans were chanting "New York Knicks" during Thursday's Game 6 every time that LeBron James went to the foul line. Maybe they should've been chanting "Chicago Bulls."

Within minutes of the Cleveland Cavaliers' elimination at the hands of the Celtics, the speculation about LeBron James' next destination resumed in full force.

In the space of five minutes I heard from three NBA GMs via text, e-mail and phone. All three said that based on the information they have, they believe LeBron will leave the Cavs.

More surprisingly, all of them said they believe the destination will be the Chicago Bulls. Two said they believe that John Calipari will be the Bulls' new head coach.

One GM went a bit further in a phone call a few minutes later. "I think the Bulls are really going to go for it. Look for them to offer the Cavs Luol Deng in a sign-and-trade for LeBron. That will allow them to retain most of their cap space. Then they'll go after Dwyane Wade or Chris Bosh as well."


I'm sure we'll hear various scenarios involving the Knicks, Nets and Heat over the course of the next month. But it's hard to come up with any other scenario that would be quite as appealing for LeBron.

Let's call a spade a spade.

It's as far fetched as the Bulls getting Lebron/Bosh or Lebron/Wade.

The Bulls have assets to trade as well, doesn't mean it will happen.

If he hates him, then we know any rumors developing about LeBron coming here that he reports will be true ones, and not because he is hoping for it. :)

I could see him going to NJ if they pick John Wall.

Wall/Harris
Lee
LeBron
????
Lopez

CDR
Williams
Yi off the bench
that's a solid young nucleus. Plus they would probably trade Harris for a young player or picks.

That said Chicago might be a better fit.

Rose
sharpshooter
LeBron
Bosh?

IMO its a lot easier to clear jones and cook (who make 4 mil together) than deng which would be neccesary to sign a 3rd max

It's not Lebron is all I'm saying so **** gets interesting if Bron Bron comes here. I'll announce it then who that player is. Again, I was told not to say who the player was to avoid stuff getting **** up
