    There is no parity in the NBA, it's a myth. Other than the 06 Heat and the 83 Sixers, 6 teams have won the last 30 NBA championships. This is Status Quo for the NBA if this goes down.

    Another argument for the short skirt: a great *** usually means excellent legs and vice-versa. Needs some photos!

    This 8 o'clock hour is so freaking boring otherwise.

    No offense to you, I appreciate you supplying information, but I think everyone has a source today. Today I was at my sisters house, who never watches basketball and probably learned about LeBron James today, and she tried to convince me he was staying in Cleveland. I'm sitting there looking at her and wondering if she knows the team name of Cleveland.

    Riley has probably gone out of his way to ensure that nothing resembling tampering occurred.. When I say nothing, I'm not even sure he coached Wade on how to approach free agency....


    He has been burnt once by David Stern.. He will not get burned again.

    If Lebron stays or comes, I have learned one thing from this entire fiasco.. Twitter actually has a use.. Damn I've never read more Twitter feeds in my life.

    Agreed.

    And if it was real, I'd say it was pulled because of the potential for a tampering charge.

    there are further shenanigans that can be done as well...such as 1 year min contracts with one year player options that they take and then get extended...

    it is underhanded and circumvents the cap...but if a player can live on 2 million a year for 2 years before getting a pay day...then you can do that as well.

    the funny thing is that the Heat will SPEND LESS in salaries THIS YEAR after signing all these massive contracts..than they did last year.

    at this rate...they will get back to 09-10 levels in year 3 of these contracts.

    just brilliant work by Riley..just brilliant.

    Seriously. For all the jokes we made about it when it made its debut, it's been pretty useful. Sure has helped me.

    Very true. As I said, kudos to you for supplying the information. I appreciate it. I just find it hard to believe anything right now, even if Cote posted it.

    That can mean anything.

    it could be a request by Lebron. it could be a art decision.

    and remember that I am the one that thinks there is no way he is signing here. THE HEAT thought there was NO WAY 8 days ago.

    I still maintain that EGO is a funny thing.

    It will be the most selfless act ever in sports. Not buying it.

    But it is fun to speculate about it.

    There are so many reasons why that ad could have been canceled. It's useless to speculate.

    Woj on Twitter says LeBron's circle is pushing Miami as the choice, but Cavs brass believe he's staying. The fact that the Cavs "believe" rather than "know" tells me all I need to hear, honestly.

    Bro, no need to sugarcoat it your as sure as the rest of America he will be a member of the Heat.

    Personally I think they wouldve been just fine WITHOUT the premadonna.

    LeBron took a team of nobodies to the NBA Finals, with a coach who was average at best, all at the age of 23. Kobe, in his prime, with Phil Jackson, couldn't take a team of nobodies out of the first round. Not to mention, there is clear statistical evidence that James is a much better clutch performer.

    Que...NO.

    Center...Joel Anthony is a decent option (we have rights). remember that all we need is a rebounder/ defender and a guy that will get out of the way offensively.

    Haslem played around 10 minutes a game last year at center..my suspicion is that he will again this year.
