Hey a shooter! About time they go get one, probably could've gotten Morrow for half that. Wonder what it means for ol Lance Romance.

C.J. Miles is not good. Avery Bradley is now making more then Dragic. Ben Gordon was paid to go away from Charlotte not to long ago and conned Orlando into giving him rotational money..and lets not even get to Jodie Meeks deal...
What in the wide world of sports is going on...

Teams have a lot of money to spend and nobody to spend it on. So this happens, I just hope McDonough keeps it in his pants.

So does this help our chances of getting Lebron or no?

Dude, he WAS Frye in the POs. He's also stated he no longer wants to bang in the post.

If I had to guess, I'd say yes. The longer it drags out the better our shot. 18M for Bosh isnt a discount its an overpay.

I wouldn't mind if we had to overpay bosh a little to get LeBron but 16-18 mil? That is just insane. I would really be hesitant to make that deal.

I wasn't sure if he was still in the league.

Last year he barely played. The Magic feel the need to trade Afflalo and get rid of Nelson but then give what could be a corpse 2/9M. It's absurd. Everybody has overpaid so far, but this move takes the price as the most futile signing (to this point; nothing would surprise me anymore).

Even though they told him about it, it was still super lame to show Melo in Lin's jersey and shit. Especially since they have to trade Lin in order to sign Melo. Uh, Lin is still a Rocket, guys. No need to get all douchey.

Its too bad, I've been a Bosh fan since his GT days, but his role in MIA has ruined him. No way you pay 16M+ for a stretch 4 who doesn't rebound.

Lin will be on the Sixers soon. Houston will probably send Philly The rights to Capela or that NOK 1st, but it'll happen.

His versatility on defense used to be incredible, but he's gotten fat & happy since he signed with Miami.....
