SHAKE YOUR BRON BRON!

http://espn.go.com/nba/truehoop/miamiheat/story/_/id/11127329/lebron-james-opt-contract-miami-heat

The city of Miami opted out during Game 3 and 4.
LeBron is responding in kind.

Reporting in from enemy territory here in North West Ohio.

The are expecting the messiah to return and deliver them to the promise land.

I plan to indulge in their river of tears.

Meanwhile, we suck.

Wait now, Bubbles is from Cleveland too?

I keep forgetting how much cap space WE have. If we can decline chauncey and josh harrellson's options I think we're at $30.5 M not counting Greg Monroe?? Cap is supposed to be $63 M?? Is HoopsHype still reliable? We could give Monroe $13 M and still have $20 M for free agents?? Am I forgetting anything?

We need to get some pieces before Drummond's extension comes up and our cap is trashed.

Joe Dumars is KING!

That's totally wrong, HoopsHype fail.

It's like $39 M and change not counting Monroe, Harrellson or Billups I think. Still a lot.

I just read $13.9 but more if we lose Monroe. enough for a couple of nice MLE FAs.

You guys gotta remember that we have about $8 mil committed to Stan's mock turtle necks.

That's more than offset by the $12 M saved off of Joe's Taco and Nacho supplies.

So true. Joe Dumars had a cheese dispenser in his office that had to be refilled daily.

I'm wondering where Stunkey and the Hairless Blunder end up.

Twitter's going crazy!

Bron and Bosh to Bulls?

Bosh back to Raptors in a S&T for Lowry?

That's not going to help the ol' career one bit.

Didn't know that Bucher wasn't with ESPN anymore.

That's too bad. He's always seemed like a decent dude. At least he owned up to it.

His best friends Prick Carlisle, Bruce Hornsby, and The Range will rally around him, I'm sure.

Wade opted out.

I could totally see Pistons signing Willie Green now that he's been waived.

Blaha would love it.

Claimed off waivers by Orlando.

@SpearsNBAYahoo: Received a scam text from someone posing as Raptors front office member.There is no offer on the table paying $14M.Apologize for the mistake

#BUCHERED

Lowry 4yrs/$48M with Raptors

Boozer to be amnestied?

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/28445671-419/carlos-boozers-time-with-bulls-all-but-over.html#.U7TJzfldUsd

Ben GorDONE to the Tragic 2/$9m

patty mills back to the spurs- 3 years $12M i believe.

Ben GorDONE to the Tragic 2/$9m

Why would anyone want this pile of crap

Why would anyone want this pile of crap

because if you sign him once you get buyer's remorse, you can trade him along with a valuable 1st round pick to another team in an effort to get under the salary cap, so you can sign even bigger pieces of crap like josh smith. not sure what's so hard to follow as that seemed obvious to me. ;o)

Kaman 2 yrs/$10m with Blazers

Hawes to Clippers for less-than-Meeks money

Hawes to Clippers for less-than-Meeks money

Not much less, and he's basically a Matt Bonner, putting up good numbers on a bad team.
I bet Harrellson could've performed similarly if given any burn.

Cavaliers want to unload Jarrett Jack's $6M annual deal to clear space, without touching Anderson Varejao -- a LeBron James favorite.

Stephen A is just the worst.

He says a lot but in reality says nothing.

Windhorst will be moving to CLE soon. He will be tearing up Tony Packo's Chili Dogs once again.

If Joe Dumars wouldn't have drafted Darko then Lebron James would have no titles.
:zekyl:

Danny Granger, 2yr/$4.2M with your MIAMI HEAT.

Josh McRoberts, 4yrs/MLE with your MIAMI HEAT.

LMAO at mcroberts getting the full MLE. way to go riley, that'll bring james back to Miami!

The Heat will be a lottery team next year but then again so will the Pistons.

Channing Frye to Magic for big money.

Going to admit I'm loving ESPN right now with the Lebron coverage.

Hail #KingJames

Chandler Parsons is finalizing a three-year, $46 million offer sheet with Dallas, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

Parsons getting more than Dirk?
I can see this overpay playing out wrong on many levels...

Parsons is just a white boy who goes tanning and makes triples. He's Jon Barry

WHERE WILL RODNEY STUCKEY LAND???

I'm finally starting to see the appeal of the Knicks... but will Carmelo?

http://www.tmz.com/2014/07/09/carmelo-anthony-n-y-strip-club-offers-free-lap-dances-for-life-if-you-resign-with-the-knicks/


NBA free agency just got real -- cause one of the most famous shake joints in the country is offering Carmelo Anthony FREE LAP DANCES FOR LIFE ... if he re-signs with the NY Knicks.

TMZ Sports spoke to Scores New York -- one of the top strip clubs in the world -- and they tell us that if 'Melo chooses to remain with the Knicks, they'll make it worth his while with the most sinful package of flesh pressing goodies ever.
The Scores New York "Melo Love" package includes:

-- Free lap dances for life.
-- Judging the “Dollars For Scholars” amateur pole dancing competition (15,000 scholarship in his name to the winner.)
-- A new drink called “The Melo Carmelo” to be served in the club forever.
-- His own personal ball girl and cheerleading squad for every Knicks game that would only cheer for Carmelo.
-- A topless charity basketball game in his honor (in which he could play) ... "where holding is not a foul."

Scores isn't the only strip club throwing some love Melo's way though, The Admiral Theater in Chicago -- another city seriously in contention for Anthony's services -- have their own ideas on how to get Melo in Bulls uniform.

The Admiral Theater's "Sign with the Bulls" offer to Carmelo includes:

-- A life sized portrait of him with various girls at his feet to be on display in the club forever.
-- A LaLa Anthony look-alike contest in the club that Melo and LaLa could judge as a couple.
-- Free driver service to and from the club forever.
-- 3 of the dancers from the club would tattoo 'Carmelo Anthony' on their bodies (they really said this).

Of course, with reports surfacing that Anthony will announce he'll resign with New York -- the ladies at Scores better get ready to work!

Guys, a poster on another Pistons board makes a great point.


Let's not forget one important fact: LeBron has probably seen the Orlando Summer League games, or at least highlights. Do we really think he's gonna want to play in the same division as KCP?

Cleveland is out of the question IMO.

Lol, yeah Charlie, I'm sure you're most teams' plan B after Lebron.

Pau to Bulls

Pierce to Wizards, 2 years, $11M

Yes, that's less than Jodie Meeks

Ariza to Rockets, 4 years, $32M

Pierce to Wizards, 2 years, $11M

Yes, that's less than Jodie Meeks
I would've LOVED to have Paul Pierce on this team, wheelchair and all.

Pau to Bulls

I don't know. People hyping up Pau but he's 34 and he will break down.

Richard Jefferson - Mavs

#BEFFL

Well Houston didn't match Parsons. Kind of surprised.

Richard Jefferson - Mavs

RJ will make the Mavs lose, just like he did with the Spurs.

Gasol gets 3 years, $22M+ with Bulls.

Mike Miller to the Cavs

S&T: Kris Humphries to Wiz.

Lance Stephenson has signed a three-year, $27 million deal to play for the Charlotte Hornets, according to league sources.

Jimmer's a Pelican.

Al-Farouq Aminu goes to Mavs at 2 yrs/$2M

Seems like a crazy bargain.

Would have been nice signing for us.

The Rashard Lewis signing didn't happen due to knee surgery, so this apparently was "plan B".

Maybe I have a skewed sense of his talent, but I'm pretty shocked by that deal and that anyone would take (today's) Rashard Lewis over him. Especially at that price.

Siva to Magic.

Ivan Johnson (MVP of the Korean League) signed to the Mavs.
