Per NBAleaders

Carmelo Anthony will make his decision tomorrow and LeBron James will make his decision this week. What a week ahead! #NBAFreeAgency!

And the Heat don't have a Center or Point Guard. They have zero cap flexibility. No bargaining chips to make a trade. And their top 2 pricey talent is on a potentially rapid decline, as both were invisible in the finals last year.

The Cavs' starting roster isn't world beating. But Kyrie/Waiters/Thompson/Varejao isn't as glaringly weak. They have huge trade bargaining chips in Waiters/Thompson/Varejao/Jack/3 first rounders, and they have cap flexibility to actually add talent. And this is assuming that the very young roster doesn't improve. Thompson and Bennett could easily be better this year. Zeller is still young enough to improve into rotational depth. Wiggins' upside is enormous. If Cleveland isn't an option because of risk, then Phoenix is a place with more proven supporting cast talent.

Reliant on a declining Big 3? Or a young nucleus.

Per Incarcerated BOB

**BREAKING NBA NEWS** Carmelo Anthony will reportedly sign with LA Lakers according to sources close to the situation. He's not leaving LA

ChiefsPlanet logic the team that just got the #1 pick is better than the team that just went to the NBA Finals.

Funny how penbook follows the world on twitter and believes all of it.

In this scenario, the team with the #1 pick would be adding the #1 pick, the #1 player in the NBA, a new coach, and potentially another superstar like Kevin Love.

Most people agree that the Heat without LeBron would not have made the finals.

Kevin Love isn't going to Cleveland...he's already nixed one trade there.

And LeBron isn't either. Wish the dumbasses would get that in their head.

The other Lakers won't touch the ball with Melo and Kobe. I suppose this means Gasol will stick around as well now.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. Where this is smoke there is usually fire.

@ESPNSteinLine: ESPN sources say Rockets are "heavily engaged" with Chris Bosh in attempt to get Bosh to leave Heat in free agency. Story hits online soon

Wow...

Seriously if Bosh signs he knows Lebron ain't going back to Miami

ChiefsCountry 07-06-2014 08:59 PM

Melo's wife is an actress so LA makes sense as well. It will be the Knicks or Lakers for him.

penbrook 07-06-2014 08:59 PM

All signs pointing to Lebron returning home to Cleveland
