OffSeason Free Agent Thread...Let's build a DYNASTY! 2.0

I'm fascinated by people trying so hard to over analyze every bit of small nugget of information that is posted as if you know exactly what's happening. What's the point, sit back and let it play out rather than racking your brain with thoughts that are pointless because you have no clue when it's all said and done.

Exactly. I think he owes it to them. And he's not gonna tell the media while in miami that he's signing with miami because once he has to had back to boston, he'll look like a jerk. "Oh, hey guys. Have you heard? Yeah, I'm leaving. Let me just clean out my locker and...." **WHAM** KG breaks his face

Lol Lewis hasn't done anything the last 2 years that warrants him anything more than the league min.

Why are we wanting Lewis? Dude hasn't done **** for the past couple of years. Ray/Camby one of those two or both. That should be all.

Well, I think regardless of what happens with Ray or Camby, we should be able to get Rashard for the minimum. There was something on HoopsHype about a week ago where Rashard's agent basically said that he knew it would be tough for Rashard to get more than the minimum and they were basically resigned to the fact that he would be playing for the minimum. Since we don't have more money to offer him than other teams, I think he should sign with us because of the fit and a good chance to win a title.

I honestly have no idea what to expect of Ray at this point, and I think I'd put 50/50 odds of him coming here. From what I've heard, Camby wants to stay in Houston but is open to playing elsewhere. If we strike out on Ray, Camby is probably the next big target for our MMLE. I'd be surprised if we struck out on both.

Lewis is a big that can stretch the floor, that's really valuable especially considering how well he would fit here.

Shard would make a perfect stretch/small ball lineup

Rio
Wade
James
Shard
Bosh

But I'm not too crazy about him unless he signs for the vet minimum

I guess, can help Bosh also.

A lineup with Lewis and Bosh at the 4 and 5 would be a nightmare for opposing bigs, too. Would pull both bigs out of the paint.

Wasn't he supposed to go to LA after this? Or does he go to Boston then to LA?

Clippers canceled on Ray yesterday. They went ahead and signed Jamal Crawford.

Nothing new on Ray Allen. He's back from Miami and is deciding. No plans to visit Memphis/Minnesota, though they & Boston still on list.

@christomasson

Marcus Camby (per Houston Chronicle) will meet with Heat on Saturday. He's interested only in the $3 million exception, not vet minimum.
