If Bosh leaves and Lebron stays I think that actually puts us in better positioning. Frees up 16m+ from the cap and we'd have Gasol signed the next day and keep on rolling. We'd even have enough to offer deals to Isaiah Thomas and several of the other players we've been connected to.

If Riley was worried about Lebron leaving, then he would of been recruiting Melo. The Big 3 and the Heat all planned to keep quiet and disregard media reports. Since the Big 3 have remain silent the media is taking advantage of this by reporting every possible negative/drama creating scenario without any dispute.

Well, I suppose he could live in his mansion in Akron and just drive to cleveland for game days? :dontknow:


That's 40 miles away.


well, Bath (where I thought his house is) is only 25 miles away.

Not a great commute, but manageable

These so called fans are the biggest bandwagoners around and yet its Heat fans that are always bashed.

Last thing Bosh would do is leave Miami! Bosh wife loves Miami and really doesn't want to move at all the only problem with Bosh is how much is he willing to sign for is he worth 4 years 90 Mill yes and no hopefully he signs back for 4 years 75 Mill

MiamiHeatFan6: those numbers you posted look highly probable/seem to be really close to the ones Riley may be working with right now. They definitely make sense.

If we could get Wade and Bosh to commit first we would have a better chance if getting the free agents we are targeting

David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt 3m
Pat Riley pitched today how Miami was a good fit for Luol Deng. But Deng can't commit unless/until he knows how much money Wade/Bosh will take. Sides will talk again next week.


Damn, wade and bosh gotta decide

Yeah. LBJ's commitment (or lack thereof, we are assuming), while it may be a problem, players want to know how much Wade/Bosh will settle on. My biggest fear is that by the time this stuff is agreed upon LeBron will be out the door.

BUT

You would think that before they left on vacation, they would have agreed on numbers in principle, no? Wade and Bosh are smarter than that. I doubt they would leave Riley with nothing to work with.

They were rooting for the Mavericks to beat us in 2011. They hated him and now they saw LeBron win some rings, now they want to beg him back?


Just look at what some of our fans have said about him recently and he hasn't even left.

Its all fanbases not just Cleveland
