Well the fans said it actually: "If you want a ring, come here. If you want to be some billionaire and win nothing, go to Miami or NY/NJ"



Completely true. If he doesn't choose us, I never ever want to hear "I want to win a ring, championships are the most important thing to me" come out of his mouth because it's bull**** if he passes up on us.

Sam Smith also said on ESPN 1000 that the Bulls have a S&T in place for Chris Bosh along with the Rockets and Heat. The Bulls will trade Taj, 3 1st rounders, 15M TPE, and 3 million.

Bosh will chose the team.

I wouldn't hold it against LeBron if he stayed in Cleveland. Though, honestly, it would probably be for just the money; not for his homestate, to build his legacy there, or chances at a championship.

So how would we get LeBron here?



If that is true, Bosh would get like $20 because of the max contract and subtract the $3 million we're sending.

We have $30 million availabe - $23 million = $7 million left.


That pretty much means WE NEED to get rid of Deng's contract for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. LITERALLY NOTHING to have money for a bench and LeBron.

Sam Smith is the boy who cried wolf. He says so much outrageous nonsense, its hard to know whats true.

It would have to be a S&T to get Bosh, he does not affect the cap as bad, I guess.

I really would hold it against him. Because since 2007 or whatever he's been saying "I don't want to be that guy that goes to the Finals once and never returns, I want to win championships". And that statement is bull**** if you stay in Cle.

I agreed so I really don't want to read into it but an ESPN analyst said the Bulls/Heat and Rockets have a S&T in place for Bosh.

It affects the cap either way. It doesn't make a difference if he signs or gets traded.

It's worse if it's a trade:

Signing Bosh - like $16-17 million

Trading for Bosh - like $19-20 million

I don't get it either but I think you can do a S&T and go over cap and get closer to the Luxory tax.

It's not exactly like the Cavs are far away from winning the Championship. Don't get me wrong, I would hate LeBron even more than I did before if he goes back. But going to NY, NJ, or Miami would make me LOATHE him.

Stay with the good team you have now, imo, LeBron... but if not... the Bulls have the better core to do it with.

You've clearly got your blinders on. You don't think that if he went to Miami he'd they'd be an immediate contender? C'mon man!

The OP
If he went to Miami and Bosh didn't and they brought in a good bunch of players they'd be a contender playoff time... A team with 3 Stars with no depth but minimum deal vets is destined to collapse. The James Posey's of the league have been underrated for their impact on championships.

If it was Bosh/LeBron/Wade, there's no way they win a ring.


Why do you think Ariza, Fisher, Posey were so valuable to their teams championship success?

You need those role players that step up and hit those big shots.

Miami wouldn't have that, they'd have no depth or anything. They would ***** slapped by the Lakers/Celtics.
