Gilbert Arenas? Not enough basketballs on the court for him and Kobe.

I guess the nets are trying to trade harris and the 3rd pick for chris paul. Lebron is a big bosh fan and the nets are trying to convince lebron to sign. I must say if they get paul and sign another big name lebron might sign with them.

The Net's don't have enough money to pull this off

Their owner and Paul Allen are the richest owners in the League.

If they can make it fit under the cap, then it's possible. Most likely they would need to sign their FAs before doing the Sign & Trade to the Hornets.

Yes but they have less cap space than 1 NY and 2 Chicago

Just because the franchise has rich owners doesn't mean they can spend whatever

Hence why I said if they can make it under the cap. You understand you can go OVER the cap for resigning your own players right? Or sign & trade as long as it meets the trade requirements.

edit: they have only 22 million on payroll next year. Chicago is at 31 million, NYK is at 17 million.

Nets have the Team Option they can exercise on Keyon Dooling & CDR. If they exercise these options, they are at right around 17 million themselves.

Maverick's. I truly believe we have a good chance of signing him.

wj4 · 06-23-2010, 12:57 PM

I actually think James would mesh quite well with Rose in Chicago.

I don't think there's a chance he's going to stay in Cleveland because when it all boils down, this is a business.

I'm also interested to see what happens when they draft Wall.

I can't believe you actually brought T-Mac up. :rofl:

He is such a hack. He went from being loved to hated in Houston. We were glad to see him go. Still couldn't believe the Knicks signed him. He did just what was expected, show up big and then fail fail fail. One things for sure, he's good at crying.

SpacE82 · 06-23-2010, 02:21 PM

I think the Bulls are a much bigger contender for him than people are giving them credit for. I mean Noah has turned into a stud, Rose IS a stud, plus we have the money and a great new head coach. Plus, the bulls have a bunch of other good players. I'm really hoping he comes here to the bulls, and I wouldnt be suprised if he does. I'm not just sayin it cuz I'm a huge Bulls fan, but to me, it seems like a pretty good option for him. I mean can you imagine what rose would be like having lebron to pass to

Lebron would get so man open shots AND rose would have so much space to drive to the lane. It would make them instant contenders for a championship or to at least go far into the post season.

b0bab0i · 06-23-2010, 03:13 PM

Donald Sterling is the worst owner ever. If Sterling sold the clippers to David Geffen( Founder of Dreamworks), Lebron would certainly condsider going to Clippers.

BTM · 06-23-2010, 03:15 PM

Don't jump the gun on Tibodeau being a great head coach, sure he's a great assistant but only time will tell how he handles being head coach. That said I'm certain he'll be wayyyyyyy better than Vinny

SpacE82 · 06-23-2010, 04:12 PM

Yeah thats what I meant. Can't say he's great YET, but compared to Vinny, I'm sure he will be great. Although Vinny didnt do terrible, I mean we did get to the playoffs under him. But I'd much rather have Thibodeau than Vinny

It would be best for lebron to go to the bulls. With noah, rose, and gibson its a high possibility for them to be champions. If lebron comes to the bulls, then dengs gotta go.
