I still think he stays, but the signs lately haven't been good.

Their FO seems way too worried about finding guys that have a name attached to them.

The Bulls would lose Hinrich, Dunleavy, Boozer, Augustine, etc. to get Melo.


Augustine would be the most missed, but Thibs is great with backup PGs... See CJ Watson, Nate, and DJ.

And Hinrich is reportedly open to coming back for the minimum.

Carmelo, Noah, and Rose cannot beat the Heat.


If Rose stays healthy? Sure they can.

First Gortat resigns with the Wizards, then Lowry resigns with the Raptors, and a report comes out that they can't even come to an agreement with the big 3. Things aren't going well in Miami.

It's just Day 2.

Those guys were longshots anyway.

Still plenty of guys who have yet to sign.

Who?

I don't see how the Heat really make their team much better. They will still be elite and the Eastern Conferenfe favorites with Lebron, Bosh, and Wade; however, the team looks like a sinking ship to me in comparison to the West.

I has a sad that my Lakers can't form a team that's worth a shite. Screw "win now". Why did they sign Kobe to such a dumb contract. So depressing

Frye
Okafor
Collison
Nelson
Carter
Marion

I would keep an eye out for these names going forward.

I'm beginning to think Bron isn't coming back to Miami, man.

If that was the case, he would have actually scheduled some visits to teams by now. He has yet to look around.

I like Bill Simmons idea of them trying to offer some guys 2 year deals then make a push for KD with the idea that he basically has the keys to the franchise at that point.

The first hurdle has been passed.

Free agency got underway at 9:01 p.m. Phoenix time Monday night, and soon after, word leaked that the Phoenix Suns have scheduled a meeting with LeBron James' agent, Rich Paul.


So his agent is talking to other teams...

His agent has been meeting with teams since free agency started. It was one of the first posts I made in this thread.

Yeah, that's what I thought. So even though Bron isn't actually talking to the teams, his agent is. That's enough to be worried.

@SamAmicoFSO LeBron James starts process of evaluating suitors outside Heat. LINK


quote:

James has not visited with any suitors, and sources said interested parties have been unable to connect with him directly. Instead, James is having Cleveland-based agent Rich Paul conduct behind-the-scenes talks based on James' preferences.

The source told FOX Sports Ohio that James is not likely to go through the meet-and-greet scenarios of 2010, when he entered free agency as a member of the Cavs. Instead, the source said when James does reach a decision, he will make it known in a manner "that is likely to be bam, this is where I'm going."

If Bron leaves, that's lots of cap space going forward. KD can come on in the future.

I'll have a new favorite team if Bron leaves. I'll admit it
