Anywho... good call about Wade... he may have "no choice" but to stay in Miami. Take big bucks and hope they can build a team around him with all that money they now have. We'll see how loyal he really is....

You mean the small handful (if that) that they showed on national tv, and made it out to be that all Cleveland fans were burning his jersey? Look there was no doubt that 4 years ago "The Decision" was a spectacle, and a circus, and Cleveland fans were pretty p***ed off, but there were no riots, or massive burning of jerseys.

They already have.

The Bulls were one of the few decent teams with guys to trade for Love.

Now Cleveland is decent and due to their lottery magic....they have just as much ammo if not more.

The T-wolves at least now have leverage to extract more for Love.

P.S. Watch the morons running Cleveland trade Kyrie Irving and Wiggins for Love and Lebron going "WHAT HAVE I DONE!!!" j/k

Wow, not sure anyone truly saw this coming. I'm happy for Cleveland fans, they deserve it...not sure he'll actually bring a championship to the town, given the heavy-hitters in the West, but they'll have better teams than during his first stint there.

Why bother?

That team still doesn't make the playoffs with Lebron and Bosh gone.

Might as well mega-suck like Cleveland did and pray you get as lucky as they did.

I never blamed Cleveland fans for being mad at Lebron, he could by his own admission have handled it better.

However, I long felt that Cleveland fans should have directed more of their anger at their owners inability to build around Lebron....who did stay there 7 years after all.

Let's see if they learned anything.

They have the best player in the world and the luckiest accumulation of draft picks in NBA history. No excuses fellas.

I definitely don't think Bosh will stay with the Heat. I think it's safe to say that he will sign to Houston. I'm also hearing a lot of rumors on Philly sports radio that the 76ers are trying to get Jeremy Lin from the Rockets.

Somewhere Andrew Wiggins is sitting there wondering if he should be unpacking his suitcase.....and Kyrie Irving is bouncing up and down like Kevin Hart on crack.

Or....Bosh could take max money and go to what would be a better team guaranteed and not have to worry that Melo might flake.

Big slick better have all his mojo working because that would be dumb of Bosh IMO.
