FA deals starting to pour

[Mediocre Man]

Jermaine to Boston for 2 years 12 mil

Heywood stays with Dallas 5 years 55 mil

Miller offered 27 mil by Miami for 5 years

Big 4 team trade brewing as well

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

I like the JO to Boston. Gives them some size, which was killing them in the finals.

 

[ironcrotch]

If Mike Miller takes that Miami deal doesn't that kill the option of LaBaron going there?

Not if they have a trade for Beasley.

 

[Wheels]

Not if they have a trade for Beasley.

I thought getting rid of Beasley was needed to give Lebron a max.

 

[noknobs]

Not if they have a trade for Beasley.

But why get a SF if Lebron is going there? They should be focused on PG/C. I don't understand Miami doing anything until they know if Lebron is going there or not.

What four team trade?

Maybe not if they have a sign and trade in place with Toronto for Bosh

That's what I thought, too. Tom Penn said if they traded away Beasley, it allowed Miami to sign all three to 16.6 million. And that leaves them with $1.8 million in cap room. Who the hell knows.

I have to wonder if there isn't gointg some trouble with what is going on. It wasn't that many years ago that Juwan Howard signed a contract with intent to go to Miami but Alonzo Mourning leaked that he had agree'd to his contract first, so they couldn't go over the cap to get Juwan Howard. All it took was a leak of intent. It seems to me a lot of that is going on here, and that a lot of of this action in Miami, might really be in violation to the salary cap.

On the 4-team trade.....

Great....so fucking Charlotte is the team that cleared the final hurdle (all max deals for LeBrand, Wade and Bosh) to go to CHA....by taking on Beasley.....

and HOU makes out well getting Chandler as a b\u....TOR gets a TE? what the fuck?

Still don't get where they have the money to sign Mike Miller to 5yr $27-$30 deal? After all 3 sign there though.....

I hope those three douchbags never win a fucking title.....

I like the idea that JO is once again trying to take the role Sheed had. Even though it's 10 years too late, there's a certain symmetry to it.

That trade seems pretty bad for Charlotte. Removing Chandler for Beasley? Adding more 3/4 guys? Houston needs to send out more than just Jeffries to take on Chandler, which would be sent back to Toronto. Who making 3 million or so on Houston are they willing to part with for Chandler, and that Toronto is willing to accept? Unless they S&T Lowry or something. I guess Hayes and one of their unguaranteed contracts(Alexander Johnson?). But why bother for Toronto? Hayes is decent. For a contender. What does he do for them? Why pay an extra 2.3 million this season? Why not hold the deal up and expect more.

I think it's more sportswriter wet dream fodder, with little or no basis in reality. LBJ stays in CLE book it!

Haywood is getting 11 million a year! THAT IS FUCKING CRAZY! I don't ever want to hear anybody bitch about LA again! That guy is a fucking scrub!

I think that is more likely then Miami. Going to Miami IMO would hurt Le Brand. Oh and Pardon my French.
