Boozer wouldn't get to choose where he plays or for how much. Amnesty is a claims process. He'd go to the highest bidder.

Cavs trying to get James Jones too.

They can get Rio too.

He was a way different player then.. lol he was beating us with some crazy post moves.

Chalmers/Wade/Deng/Boozer/Bosh

With a bench of McRoberts/Granger/Cole/Haslem/Ennis/Napier + a few other pickups.

Think they will make a push for Birdman to return and also need to find some offense (Jordan Crawford/Evan Turner/Stuckey)

If we sign Deng at 10 mil, depending on level of pay cuts for Wade and Haslem, Chalmers would need to be signed starting in the 3-4 mil range. Booz would have to sign for the minimum. I could live with that squad tho. Just need to fill the roster with shooters. James Jones would be great back for the minimum.

Not if he publicly says he wants to play for a certain team only

Finally, some details on our Deng pursuit. 10-12M in a short term deal. I can live with that.

Yeah, but he's a home town kid like Haslem.

That did not work for Billups

Lebron has something to do with Cavs going after JJ

He barely would play here, nobody goes after a 10th guy on the bench

Lebron recruiting his favorite snipers.

It doesn't matter what he says. He can play for the team with the highest bid or retire.

But they don't have a GM to choose players? :lol:

At some point in the future, lebron and his entourage will make Blatt and Griffin feel very uncomfortable with the amount of power they have and the worst part is that Gilbert will always side with lebron.

If this was the power that we didn't want to grant them, than I'm very happy with our front office.

And he basically is replicating the blueprint of what we had here. Monkey-see Monkey-do.

He's been fine the last 4 years. He'll be better away from Thibs.

Washington could offer Deng what they offered Ariza and that's 4/32

12mil more and longer years

More sustainability for him, unless he gets traded but we will see

It ain't 10mil per year tho. But still more money

He will weigh his options and Dallas can offer him something if Stephenson rejects Dallas offer
