Love: youngest and best of the 3.
Second: Bosh. Not because I hate Melo, but because he makes a lot more sense next to LeBron than Melo does. He's turned into a very good big man defender, and he and LeBron already have chemistry.

Re: If we sign LeBron, who would be your preference for seco
Its a tough question. I feel like Bosh compliments their game the best and we won't have to give up Dragic/Bledsoe to get him unlike Love. However, if LBJ wanted to play with Bosh then he could just stay in Miami....and not only that, I think Bosh is too loyal to Wade to leave him behind. That's my opinion, not that I read anywhere else. Wade and Bosh have same agent also.
I can't imagine Bosh leaving Wade in Miami. I think there's a higher chance of Wade/Bosh staying in Florida and putting together role players to support them while LeBron leaves.
I'll still vote Bosh cause I love his game and never understood the hate he got. He's incredibly clutch and has championship pedigree. I wanted Bosh on the Suns even if he didn't come with LeBron.
I won't be mad at all if 'Melo came either. I think people would be surprised at how well he could adapt and play with 'Bron, Dragic and Bledsoe.

The only thing about Bosh, is that he has already done it, and I know that people want proven champs, but you already have that with LeBron in this case, so I think Love would just be hungry to PROVE he belonged with LeBron and would just be a rebounding and 3 pt machine with all the focus on LeBron. The D would suffer a bit, but we would be unstoppable offensively and would win the rebounding battle and have more 2nd chance points and give less 2nd chance opportunities to opponents.

See that's the thing, defense wins championships. Otherwise D'Antoni would have more rings than Phil Jackson and Pat Riley combined.

Pat Riley's Lakers were all about offense. That's just a saying. D is important, but so is offense. As long as you can more efficiently score than your opponent you win...it doesn't matter how you do it.

I was going to put that, but then decided if he said he will sign if you get one of those three, who would you prefer. Maybe I could have put an "I don't want LeBron" option.

Re: If we sign LeBron, who would be your preference for seco
Obviously Love>Bosh. Better shooter and rebounder. And Love's outlet passes to Lebron would be poetry in motion combined with hot sex.
With that said, I think Bosh would be a better fit with Lebron because of chemistry and the clutch factor. I think Hornacek would know how to utilize Bosh better than what Spoelstra did with him. Plus we wouldn't need to give up anybody to get him.

Bosh. We need someone who plays some sort of semblance of defense

I could handle LeBron at $22m per - I'd be less inclined to take LeBron+1 at $34-38m per.

Love. I think he's a better complement to Lebron (3PT shooting, rebounding, passing) and he would fit like a glove in the current Suns offensive schemes. While Bosh is a better defender than Love, I don't think it's anything to write home about.

Love and it's not even close. Have Bledsoe, Dragic, and LeBron to shoot, and Love to clean up any misses.
****.
****.

Re: If we sign LeBron, who would be your preference for seco
Minnesota wants the house for Love. If we could get him without giving up Dragic and Bledsoe, then I'll take Love. If they want one of our stars then I'd rather just sign Bosh outright and keep the core intact while adding Lebron/Bosh. Seriously amazing what McD has accomplished as far as our culture goes. It's seriously crazy we're talking about this only a year since our future looked bleak.

We are the only team that could reunite Dragic-Bledsoe-Anthony-LBJ, but...
does anyone think, as me, that Bledsoe-Dragic mix with LBJ as water and oil?

Re: If we sign LeBron, who would be your preference for seco
You look at one of the few problems Miami has rebounding
Love>bosh for me.
Also see how lebron uses bosh as a stretch big in Miami love>bosh when it comes to that
He's also younger

It really is though I think everything is a smokescreen from lebron and he's staying in Miami
But the suns just one year ago had no direction, picked to be in a tank fight with philly.
One year later reports are suns and James have interest ha.
That's just crazy talk if someone made a post on July 4th 2013 saying one year from now suns will be in talks for signing lebron I couldn't imagine the realgm responses
