Free Agents 09
prob because portland isnt as high on seesins fitting in with them as ya'll are...i read today that rubio just dropped his lawsuit against his contract and has decided to play out the last 2 years of it...iverson doesnt have to beg to play there are teams that are actually interested...but most of them arent at the price that his agent wants..as far as wade in chi..noah henrich and first rounder would only be a starting point..hes worth alot more than what chi is willing to give...if you were miami would you give up wade for that???..i know i wouldnt
But think about the team that could be brewing in Chicago...Idk how their salary cap looks, but Bosh and Wade want to play there Bosh said Chicago is number 1 on his list for 2010 and Wade wants to go home.
Pg: Derrick Rose
Sg: Dwayne Wade
Sf: Tyrus Thomas
Pf: Bosh
C: Noah/Brad Miller if he stays
Dominating, That back would be better then anything we have seen. Better then Michael and Pippen. Better then Magic and Worthy, Yes even better then Thomas and Dumars.
wade already said he wants to resign with miami and already intiated contract talks with them so scratch that..doubt if they can afford bosh since they have to resign a coupel players in the comming year or 2...better then the bulls back in the day.....ok now you are losing me
These two guys are so athletic that it is crazy...Both can lock down anybuddy in the league. Plus their style of play is better then any of those people above. No one would be able to quick these guys in front of them. The pair that would be better is MJ and Pippen but Pippen isn't as athletic as Wade or Rose.
I am saying the show ould be better not that they are better. maybe in time but i am not a fool enough to say they are better right now.
wait wait wait..both can lock down..i understand why u said wade but rose has nromal to below average defense right now..did u watch the season???...more importantly did u watch the boston series..or the fact that thats the weakness that sports writers as well as those in the know state as what he needs to work on...wait a min why are we even talking about something thats not gonna happen..in that case lets talk about the lakers picking up joe johnson and rondo ( wait bad example since we all know the lakers tend to do the impossible..lol)
he still gets the ball but late in the game scorer like ben gordan rose aint yet..its harder to check a ray allen ben gordan hamilton type at the end of the game because they can drive mid range or dep three or shots off screens..rose cant do all of that yet
Rose and Wade would easily be the best backcourt in NBA. No way Miami would take 1st round pick, Hinrich and Noah in exchange. Probably a moot point. Wade loves it in Miami. Yes, he is from Chicago, but he loves Miami and they can pay him more money.
Too early to compare pair vs. Dumars/Thomas even if it does happen. We do know they would cerrtainly be more athletic and exciting. If somehow Bulls do get Wade, I bet Bosh would be here too. Money would be an issue, but Reinsdorf would pay luxary tax if it meant NBA championship, and in this case, I think it would! Throw in the fact that Bulls could be a lotto team this year in great draft year, and one more good player would put Bulls in a pretty good spot. I've been wondering who will take big shot in 4th quarter this year, and don't feel comfortable with any answer. Bulls look like .500 team, and if Deng is hurt or they struggle for whatever reason, lotto is possible, and remember what happened last time they were in the lotto? They had about a .01% chance, but somehow beat odds and got Rose.
sessions would have upside there... but portland has bayless who i would love to see them actually give PT too... they need to develop some of their talented PGs... was sos sad whn they gave up sergio... he's gonna b legit!! and blake is a good enuff placeholder espec since roy is a VERY unselfish SG...
y in the world would miami ask for a PF who has no offense, hinrich, and a 1strounder (whn that first rounder would b l8 bec if chi got wade chi would b stacked and thus late pick)
id rather miami try to retool around dwade... got good young pieces in chalmer and beasley...
if he wanted to test the market he would just wait like lebron..he said he is in the works with miami on getting his new deal done before the season starts..people who want to test the market either say they gonna wait or they wanna stay but they wanna wait to sign a extension..another wrinkle is he went to the organization..they didnt come to him
personally i prob would do the same if i was playing for l.a or miami...both cities arel ovely with great nice life and beautiful women...home team can pay me the most and if if they couldnt do i really care id be happy with 10million in miami then 15 in toronto..since every thing i want im sure i can get for half of 10million easily plus endosments...like m. jordan..im not sure he was ever the highest paid player in the game or if he ever was he still was grossly under paid but he didnt care

With the left over agents Being
Lamar Odom
Sheed
Iverson
Kidd
Sessions
What do you see happening with these guys
I would like to see it play out like this
Lamar stays with the lakers
Sheed goes to SA, but will end up going to Boston unfortunately
Iverson begs for a job and goes to the bobcats
Kidd stays with dallas, unless lakers have money left over after odom to give him veteran salary
Sessions, Would die if he went to Portland to form a incredible young team. seriously he would be perfect why is portland waiting?
So Moves in the trade market i would love see happen
Chris Bosh getting traded to Chi, Or Det ( not going to make up a trade it is pointless)
Amare...Just waiting to see what happens to my beloved suns and what talent they get back
Steve Nash to the Knicks to end his career in the perfect place
Waiting for a T-mac or Yao Trade
Knicks will be hot again but who do they have left to trade...maybe a sign and trade with lee and robinson
Ricky Rubio....i know everyone says he is gone but Kahn is waiting for the last moment...If Nash doesn't go then Ricky will be knicks last chance.
Call me crazy but i think Portland will make a splash by all star break...If Oden is not doing well and no signs of improvement he is on the way out.
Wade wants to be in Chicago, if they suck again expect some trade buzz.
Some things to look at.
