Can anyone confirm if there was a meeting with Lebron today/tonight?

Suns sign

- Lebron James
- Chris Bosh



Then

Trades

Lebron James and Chris Bosh
For
Anthony Davis, Ryan Anderson, future pick


Why for Phoenix? Anderson replaces Frye, Davis becomes the next great big man.


Why for Pelicans? Contend now.

C: Plumlee/Len
PF: Davis/Anderson/Markieff Morris
SF: Tucker / Warren
SG: Dragic / Green / Goodwin
PG: Bledsoe / Ennis



And I'm only half kidding.

Nope but I think there's a good chance that LeBron makes his decision by tomorrow. His camp starts on Wednesday.

Here's my crazy plan.

Suns sign Lebron (max) + Pau ($25m over 3yr BACK-loaded ie 7.5/8.5/9.5...cheaper yes, but chance to play with Lebron and stay close-ish to LA)

S&T Tucker to Pelicans for RAnderson

Trade Marcus Morris to PHI for a 2nd next year (basically a salary dump unfortunately)

Sign vets Bayless and Aminu to cheap deals

Lastly re-sign Bledsoe ($50m over 4?) so the other moves can be done first.

Plumlee / Len
Pau / RAnderson / Kieff
Lebron / Aminu / Warren
Dragic / Green / Goodwin
Bledsoe / Bayless / Ennis

They have so many options with these players. Kieff would continue to get 25-28mins as they could run him at C or even Anderson there for stretches (see what I did there?) and Pau obviously plays C a lot so both get significant time at PF.

Bayless I think is one of those microwave type guys, I'd prefer a defensive type like Hinrich or a better shooter like Mo but they're both probably too much.

Aminu would fit like a glove in the second unit running the floor and grabbing rebounds/picking up the hot player on the other team's 2nd unit.

How the hell does anybody guard this unit:

Pau
Anderson
Lebron
Green
Dragic

Now, somebody destroy my 2K level homerness with cap rules and unlikeliness... :D

It is really frustrating to wake up in Europe and see the 50+ pages you guys wrote when I was asleep. But again, I really enjoy to read it.

Should we be worried about this?

Honestly i dont think anyone has any clue what's going on right now. You have a 1/3 chance of being right....and EVERY media guy is using that 1/3 chance to gain ground in the industry. I feel like LeBron's outcome is going to make and break a lot of these insider guys.

At the end of the day if LeBron does not choose the suns, i wont understand, especially if he resigns with the Heat. The Heat are just a mess of broken and underwhelming at this point. We can build the best team around him NOW. The only speculation is that Cleveland trades for Love, which would make them the best team that nobody REALLY wants to play for.

Ha, that's topboob my friend.

A subtle difference but equally as glorious as it's cousin from the East/West side...

I've been googling for the last 5 minutes...

I'm confused with top boob...

Is it the upper portion of the sided boob?
As in a couple of inches from the side boob?

My awareness is unfortunately just limited to side boob, cleavage, under boob... Top boob and cleavage I thought were the same.

IMO, The Big 3 will stay in Miami, Melo will stay in NY.

I think to the casual sports/nba fan if Lebron said he was going to join the Phoenix Suns people would go absolutely insane. Even the media it would be :o

If he went to Cleveland it would be a big story but more of a "yeah I can see him doing that"

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Basically if there's that gap between bra-strap and boob, you're in topboob country.

I best not post pics on here as a Mod because it's side-tracking this thread, I've probably said too much as it is. 8-)

My suggestion is google more for an hour or two

If he went to Phoenix it would turn the NBA on its collective head.

Everybody (apart from Heat/Cavs nuthuggers) can see that it makes a LOT of sense from a basketball standpoint.

The Suns as a historical franchise, their storybook run last year and how out of left field it would be - ie not going to NY, LAL, staying with MIA or going back to CLE would make it a MASSIVE story.

If we want to sign a cheap stretch 4 what about Ryan Kelly?
Can keep dragic/Bledsoe screen game.

Close to a 10ppg guy after the allstar break.
Is young as well
