New cap puts Bosh, Wade, LeBron starting max number at about $17 million for 2010-11. Without Beasley, room for all three under new cap. http://twitter.com/IraHeatBeat
Good lord, do the heat have ANYONE else signed to their roster? If the cap is 58 million, and they all start at 17 million, plus Beasley's contract, don't the rest of the cap holds put them over?
So if Lebron goes to Miami to form the trio, when the Heat blow the shit out of Cleveland for the next couple of years, will Cleveland fans (all that's left) hate him as much as Laker fans hated Shaq? Hmmmm.... better move out of Akron.
I think he should go to the Knicks. Bron/Amar'e is just as good as Wade/Bosh and should set up some epic matchups for the future. I don't know why the heat are so hell bent on getting all 3, they'll have to complete their roster with all Vet minimums. DJ Mbenga will be their starting C!
And the reason why I have the Knicks is because I think Tony Parker ends up a Knick and this would also be a Carmelo block Lebron on the Knicks with Amare, Parker and Gallo plus a guard shooter / defender and an interior defender would squash Miami and the ageing Celtics and battle royally with Orlando and Chiacgo for dominance of the East Of course the stage is perfectly set for Melo to join Rose, Noah and Boozer and be a Bull.
If Lebron's opinion of himself is truly mirrored in his actions, he'd go to the Nets, just to show everyone how fucking great he really is.
The reason I say NY is because I don't think he actually cares about winning, only about how much money he can make. And he will make the most by playing in NYC.
I disagree The correct answer as to where the most amount of money is - is .... Chicago Bulls are global thanks to Mike Knicks are .... a New York brand that don't have a ton of relevance outside New York. Same with Heat. Same with Nets . Same with Cavs This is why Lebron will be a Knick
I am leaning towards what you think as well. 'bron wont win anything this year, but NY could be putting together their won super team by next summer.
