Unlikely, Mecca. McRambis play at 4, Bosh at 5. They are spending $.

<hits knees - prays to merciful God that this fool signs with MJ...>

Now hoping Boozer joins Miami when the Bulls amnesty him

I think his top 5 destinations will be:

1. Houston

2. Heat

3. Thunder

4. Spurs

5. Clippers *blatant homerism and wishful thinking*


Wouldn't rule out the Cavs either.

He bolted like a thief in the night.

But, this is the year of forgiveness in Cleveland.

So, why not?

So if Rose is healthy then we have pretty much every game between the Bulls, Heat and Cavs being must see TV. If Pacers keep everyone then add them to the must see TV mix. Odds are one of those 4 wont be as good as billed but if there are 3 teams with bullseyes on them out East then that isnt half bad

At fucking store, gonna miss the start of title game.

SMH.

Ah...I forgot they signed him

Yeah, Bosh will play the 5.

 

[Jims_Doors]

This is the perfect silver lining....

Deng, Wade, Bosh, Napier....

Top 5 in the East.

I think the Wiz Kids will be a bit better depending on future Heat signings.

But, this keeps Miami in the game.

Congrats .

It all depends on Wade's health, which we know has a better chance of getting worse than it does getting better.

I think Washington, and maybe the Hornets, take a big step next year.

Back later.

Boozer would be a nice addition. Especially off we hmm birdman

 

[Jims_Doors]

Not sure about that. He said his days off posting up and banging down low for rebounds are over. We'll see if Riley convinces him to go back to doing that.

Very true.

He sat out 1/3 of the Season and he still didn't have much java left in the bowl during the finals.

But, they have hope now....

They really need to make sure Ray doesn't retire.

Deng to Heat..
2 yr/ 20M.
Nice work Riley!

 

[bksballer89]

If Miami can get Boozer & Nelson, the starting lineup would look like this

PG- Nelson
SG- Wade
SF- Deng
PF- Boozer
C- Bosh

BN-Cole/Napier
BN- Granger
BN- McRoberts
BN- Bird/UD

Still need a shooter or 2 as I said on another thread

 

[avalon2423]

If Boozer is amnestied, is he a FA or does he go through waivers? Why didnt Cleveland do a sign and trade for lebron?

Monday Morning Quarterbacking here...


But, could the Cavs have kept their young players and picks had they just done a sign and trade with the Heat by swapping Deng for Lebron?

It worked out well for both teams, regardless.

I'm just wondering...

Waivers....

Teams under the cap can make a blind bid.

Team with the highest bid wins.

I could see the Lakers, Suns, Heat all trying to snatch him up.

Ray Allen?

Anthony Morrow would have been a good pickup. But, the Thunder beat you to the punch.

Nelson......hmmm

I like the idea of giving Cole and Napier a chance to shine.

Nobody is bidding on Boozer because his contract is terrible.

The Heat should not sign Boozer. They already have 2 good 4s. They need a 5.
