He's as good as gone. He has until the 8th.

Dirk and Joe Johnson to stay with their teams after signing max deals...

BORING!!!

Amare Stoudemire now a Knick.

Only room for wade and bosh in chicago now! Unless they take just under max.
What did Amare get?
Good news is Lee needs out for sure NOW!

$100 Million max deal... Looking for Melo, Parker/Lebron to join in.

Shaquille O'Neal is seriously considering a two-year deal with the Hawks that starts at the mid-level exception of $5.8 million

I give it till year three before the Knicks rue giving this contract to a guy with gimpy knees and who will show he is not the same Amar'e who played with Steve Nash.



Nuggets claiming they will not move 'Melo http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5356389

Parker... nice player but he's no Steve Nash.

LeBron, I still can't see him going to NY. I think he's a Cav or a Bull.

Chris Duhon is now a Magic.

Latest Rumor has LeBron convincing Bosh to come to Cleveland. Bosh, the follower that he is, may consider doing that. He doesn't realize he is digging up his grave in regards of overshadowing his career

LeBron to announce decision Thursday night at 9 p.m. on ESPN

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5359255

What a prima donna James is!! Sheesh.

The rumour I heard today is the Raptors are willing to talk sign and trade with Cleveland. I wouldn't trade Bosh to a team in the same conference.

Bosh ruled out that option. No trade to Cleveland. He want to go either Miami, Chicago or New York.

I say trade the fool to whoever the Raps can benefit from.

Don't think LeBron would do a one-hour special to announce he's leaving Cleveland. That would be too cruel. He's staying a Cav.

ESPN is reporting Bosh will join Wade in Miami.

No indication yet if it's Sign & Trade or if Bosh is taking the one less year and leaving $29 million on the table in a direct signing.

I really hope James doesn't sign with the Heat, too. Which is still possible.

I hope not! I doubt it will happen. That will only work if someone of the 3 takes a paycut. Plus it would hurt the league big time.

as an arm chair basketball fan... I hope he does! most teams have one super star and a decent runner up. when the celtics signed the big names a few years ago, it made me watch them. If bosh goes to miami to play with wade, i doubt I will tune in just becuase... BUT if lebron signs there as well, I would certainly tune in just to watch the 3 of them play together.

if they all take a pay cut in garanteed salary... the bonus packages would be maxed out though.... thereby earning them each more money in the long run.

I dont see lebron going to miami though! lebron will either remain a cav or sign with the knicks or bulls...

as silly as it is, i bet youll watch the espn special tomorrow night to see what happens..... I will be

I think LBJ will stay in Cleveland. I keep hearing how he's very concerned about his legacy and I think he knows his legacy will be tarnished if he joins the Heat. Yeah, he'll likely get a ring or a few rings, but the question will always exist of could he have won without joining Wade (and Bosh)?

Michael Jordan won with Pippen, but Jordan didn't leave his team to play with another great player. Jordan made the Bulls great, no matter who he played with.

Fairly or unfairly, James is already beginning to develop a reputation for choking as the Cavs have dissapointed the last couple of seasons. If he leaves to the Heat, he'll be like Phil Jackson as a coach, respected as an all-time great, but will have many who put a mental asterisk by his name because of who he played with. Jackson, no matter how many championships he wins, will always have those who say, "Yeah but he has coached Jordan & Pippen, Shaq & Kobe, Kobe & Gasol."
