If the Bulls could get Wade and Bosh, in hand, which I don't think can or will happen, but, would you have to take them as that makes you NBA favorites?

Don't trust Bosh though. Him saying yes could mean "yes, well, as long as I get my money, and if you can't arrange a deal with Toronto, in two weeks maybe it's no".

His 'sources'? Please.

Lebron is coming to Chicago. Per...(drum roll)...Jason Goff and his 'sources'.

So we are getting all three? Jason? Hello? Bueller?

If he really is worried about the custody situation and his kids - and wants/needs support of his family - I don't know how any Heat fan could be angry if he came to Chicago.

If he gets custody and moves to Miami, maybe the ex can't visit him. Who knows.

But yes in any case if he leaves for Chicago, that's his home. They shouldn't be upset.

Riley has wasted two prime seasons and actually since the title team they've gone just downhill, even with the great :bowdown: Pat Riley.

If you can get Wade and Bosh right now, I think you do it.

Don't trust how LeBron is dragging this out.

One could say, it's probably because he doesn't really want to leave, which, maybe he'll end up staying.

Now, they talked to Lebron, and he probably gave all teams a good feeling.

But ultimately yes I agree with you I think. That team should win several titles and be really really good even in the 4th/5th years of Wade's deal.

Now, good news for Knicks fans, this would mean they would I think have a slight shot if Lebron panicked and realized his team, the Cavs, sucked.

Also means Miami - sorry SAS - will be just missing out on all three.

Wade sounds like he is talking himself into Chicago:

"You go through a whole season, even the last two seasons, and feel incomplete in a way, no matter what kind of success you have, because you don't have the most important thing to you with you," Wade told AP. "My boys. To be able to have this relationship with them as I have since this summer hit, it's been probably the best feeling I've had since winning the championship. … I don't think people really understand that."
link


To say all this stuff about his family and then kind of do a 180 on it and go back to Miami.... I don't know, it would be somewhat odd. I think Wade to Chicago is looking at least 50/50.

Better yet, he might be trying to soften the blow to the Miami fans, making it so the Heat fans understand that he's not backstabbing them, but that there are family issues that make him sign here.

Or something.

D-Wade tells Herald his pursuit of full custody of 2 sons, and maintaining their stability, are factors in F/A decision.

Wade + Bosh leaves us a little better defense than LeBron + Bosh, if we can keep Deng.

Because Deng's defense will be better than any slot filling SG we can get.

However clearing enough cap space could be extremely difficult if Toronto doesn't want to deal.

That was my first thought when I heard him say that this FA isn't about the next 10 - but the next 40. I think Wade wanted assurances from the Bulls that he could have a long term role with the Bulls.

This has to be killing him. I'm sure he loves the heat and their fans, but he probably has the pull of family and hometown. He's going to piss alot of people off regardless. I envy his money, but not the decision he has to make.

Wade has plenty of reason to leave, but if he does, he leaves the Heat in shambles. Worse than what Bosh is leaving Toronto in. What other big FA would want to come there then if they have no roster in place?

The feelings of betrayal from Riley and the fanbase would be very strong.

ANyways, I no longer think Wade is just using the Bulls. I not believe the interest is real.

Either that, or he's using the child custody angle to fool us into thinking he's legit, but that would be pretty messed up.

For the first time, I think we have a real shot at Wade.

Thats pretty profound. And if he thinks the best thing is for his boys to be in Chicago with family - then I could absolutely understand that decision.

For the people who say - "Wade has the money for a private jet to send his kids to Chicago" Is that really what you would do with your kids? And the time they are on the jet is time they aren't spending with you.

Yeah- why would wade be putting this out there in public (i.e. twitter about time w/ kids)? If he goes back to Mia now you could argue that he looks like a inattentive father.

Source indicates there will be no decisions tonight from Wade or Bosh: "They're processing all of the info."
