NBA Free-Agency Predictions

I could run through a bunch of scenarios, what-ifs, and other commentary.....but lets cut the cheese....or whoever you say it-


LeBron James = New Jersey Nets
Chris Bosh= New Jersey Nets
Dwyane Wade= Miami Heat
Amare Stoudemire= New York Knicks
Joe Johnson= New York Knicks
Paul Pierce= Boston Celtics
Carlos Boozer= Miami Heat
David Lee= Utah Jazz (2nd pick: Toronto Raptors)
Rudy Gay= LA Clippers
Ray Allen= Boston Celtics (He will take a serious pay-cut to stay, as he should)
Josh Childress: Miami Heat
Luis Scola: Rockets

The Miami Heat moves which has enabled them to clear space for nearly 3 max players could blow the entire thing up.  It would be fun to watch Wade, LeBron, and Bosh......but I just don't think it'll happen.

  1. I agree I don't think the Miami thing will happen. I do think Booz will do a sign and trade.

  2. Although I would love to see Bosh and James go to New Jersey and play with my boy Lopez, I have a feeling that LeBron will stay in Clev. If that happens, Bosh will go play with Wade in Miami.

  3. LeBron is crazy if he stays in Cleveland. That roster is a mess. Two really bad contracts on that team- Varejao (4 years $35M left) and Jamison (2 years $29M left). Not to mention Mo Williams can't play defense at all. The only reason he would stay is because he loves the city. His chances at a championship are far better at many other destinations (NJ, Chicago, Miami, Utah Jazz zinggggg).

  4. I completely agree with everything you've said, but I think that the pull to be the hometown hero is really strong.

  5. Two out of the three picks correct, not too bad. Lebron to Miami, no one could predict that.

  6. Lets cut the cheese.....? Did you mean "Let's cut to the chase?" You're obviously a blogger and not a writer. Maybe you were so affixiated on the NBA stuff that you couldn't properly express yourself. I think a raspberry lemonade with a toothpick pavilion would've helped you clarify your thoughts.
