Pretty sure they need to renounce their rights to Parsons prior to signing Bosh. I'm sure there's some loophole they're planning to use, but after that, they are basically at the tax line before they even have a PG or any bench players.

Patrick Beverley is their point guard.

Their bench players would all be their young players... Terrence Jones, Donatas Motiejunas, Robert Covington, Troy Daniels, Isaiah Canaan, Nick Johnson, etc.

And somebody correct me if I'm wrong... but would they be able to use any exceptions to sign some veterans?

Somewhat agree. I think Asik and Davis match up well with them, too.

Has anyone pointed out the hilarity of living in Miami, but staying in Cleveland in the summer?


well I guess if there's ever a time to go to Cleveland, it's in the summer. And back to Miami for the winter.

Adding Bosh in place of Terrance Jones makes Houston much, much better.

I go back and forth on it because as Zbo has gotten older his ability to defend stretch 4's has gotten worse. Then again I've watched him abuse Bosh in the post ever since he has been in Miami.

This would catapult Houston into the 2nd or 3rd best team in the West though.



Where every 1st round series minus the Portland/Houston one went 7 games

Which is why I'm not a fan of considering them the automatic favorite just because of Bosh.

Pau in OKC scares me more.

Market price for free agent Mike Miller is rapidly rising, sources tell Yahoo. Memphis. OKC. Denver. Yes, Cleveland. $4-4.5M per year.

Yeah, you guys would cause problems for them. But the Rockets would be able to hurt most of the other teams in the West with Howard/Bosh down low.

If the Grizzlies are willing to match that then he either ends up in Cleveland if LeBron lands there or back in Memphis most likely.

Unless someone is offering him more years.

I may be off, but Melo re-signing to the NYK is huge for these chances. Supposedly there was a lot of smoke around Pau staying if Melo were to have signed with the Lakers.

Now it's going to come down to the Bulls vs Thunder in my eyes. I think OKC has the big advantage regarding talent and championship contention. But Chicago is a big draw for things such as opera, museums, etc. that Pau is known to love.

New York will likely be a player considering his relationship with Phil and his success in the Triangle offense.

Done flying for the day.

What more have I missed? Has LeBron announced his retirement yet?

Gregg Popovich has agreed to a contract extension, Spurs say in release. I had been told he was eager to coach another 4-5 years.


Well all this speculation about favorites and what not was fun for a little while
