Excuse my ignorance, he was far better than Ray. So I really wonder if that will discourse Ray Allen now.

As has been stated numerous times, none of that matters. Whichever team puts in the highest bid gets his services. He has no say in the matter.

Do y'all think Miller signing with the Cavs may discourage Ray Allen from signing if he thinks Miller is going to be their sharpshooter? Granted Miller is near as good as shooter but he does just about everything else better.



What did the spurs teach us?

Having many sharpshooters > 1 sharpshooter

There would be ample opportunities for both to get their looks.

I don't doubt the Cavs want him, but whether Ray wants to play.

I think ray would have come back if he was on a contender. A year on a team like the cavs, who still have a chance to make the championship but no way win it, doesn't seem appealing to him but we shall see.

if they trade for love he will go fo sho

This is just retarded. So the cavs have a chance to make the championship (which is pretty good considering their conference) but have no chance at winning it?

So should Ray just go into a time machine and see who wins then come back and sign for that team?

There is no such thing as a guarantee no matter what team he signs for.

The east sucks, which means they have a chance, but they aren't ready for the goo west teams yet.

Ray only took less to go to Miami bc they had been to two straight and that wasn't changing anytime soon.

He won't do the same for the cavs. Especially in Cleveland

Throw in the missed game checks due to the suspension and taxes as well...

I feel bad for him, but a contract is a contract.

@WojYahooNBA Even worse, he's got 13 games left on PED suspension, which will cost him about another 100K.

If Rose isn't Rose, Chicago will be lucky to make it to the 2nd round of the Eastern Conference Playoffs.

He won't be as explosive as he was, which was the majority of his game, but I think he could still be good. If he can be anything close to all star caliber and pau still has some juice left they should be good. They are winning a championship or anything but they could be the best in the east if the pacers don't resign lance Stephenson.

Cavs could be bad arse next year. Only time will tell. More likely of them not being ready though.
