In a well-ordered universe...
Looks like Mascherano in front of Eagles and Campbell.
some places have stopped taking bets. As a chicago resident I would be pumped if Bosh and Lebron came to the Bulls. It would probably be impossible to get tickets to any games thoughApparently gambling payouts for LeBron going to Chicago and Bosh going to Chicago have dropped dramatically in recent days. To something like -500 each. Read into that however you want.
It got really tedious once teams started dumping their first round picks. I'm going to have a serious laugh at all the teams that end up with nothing.The FA circus is getting tedious now.
I think Melo signed a 5 year contract when Wade and LeBron signed 3 years so I think he has multiple years left. It will be interesting, personality wise he would fit in New York in a second.If Carmelo has any smarts, he'll refuse and be the premier free agent next summer. Or premier free agent 1a along with Durant. I can't see Carmelo staying in Denver - they're never winning shit.
Durant might stay in OKC. OKC could be the next threat out west. Missing one player to really have a solid nucleus. Perhaps a guy like Marc Gasol.
Only problem is they don't have any cap room and too many players under contract.
what, lebron is coming to LA?it would be sweet..the new King to continue the legacy of the Real King.
Aren't the players union and owners renegotiating salary guidelines this year or something? The salaries have gone too high for the owners and this year is likely to be the best ever contract that free agents can receive in terms of salary.If Carmelo has any smarts, he'll refuse and be the premier free agent next summer.

What about Brian Shaw taking over Jackson? He's worked with the Lakers the past few years and will probably get Kobe's vote, he's also been linked with the Cavs post as well. I suppose whoever comes in will probably keep the triangle offense, its worked the past 3 years and why change it?Rumor Byron Scott would get the Lakers job if Phil goes elsewhere or retires.
Does a new coach keep the triangle offense or institute a new philosophy?
I would love to see Dirk sign with the Lakers but doubtful.
I think much of what you have written is wrong hthAren't the players union and owners renegotiating salary guidelines this year or something? The salaries have gone too high for the owners and this year is likely to be the best ever contract that free agents can receive in terms of salary.
Do they have the right to refuse?I seriously doubt either Odom or Bynum would accept a deal to Toronto
Jesus Christ, I specifically put in a disclaimer to prevent your nonsense.I seriously doubt either Odom or Bynum would accept a deal to Toronto
I'm talking about how it would impact upon the Lakers as a team; as defending champs - does it make them more or less likely to win another title, and why?Alex, this is hypothetical, no need to tell us it won't work under the cap, etc.
I dunno, we'd lose valuable championship experience. Wouldn't be thrilled about trading for a choker - regular season awards don't carry much weight for meFIne why not trade DJ Mbenga for LeBron then
