what happened in NY

[Alehana]

i just got back from OS, and realised that the knicks have harrington, mobley and have lost crawford, and randolph whats ur opinions on this?

 

[Tiger Hawk]

They did it for the summer of 2010 only, that's when LeBron is off contract. Big call, doing that for no guarantee of signing Bron but they had to do it.

They will be trying like buggery to move Curry between now and then as well.

 

[Alehana]

chances r they wont move curry well if they do it will not benefit them at all in terms of the player they get 4 him, it says hes out for the season, plus marbury's contract expires at the end of the year, so they may have some cap room, they r gonna need a big offer to get Lebron to NYC, something i dont think the cavs can match.

lol ... people still deny that lebron WON'T sign for NYK? ...

lebron will be a knickerbocker 100%

f**k NY though

 

[Selachimorpha]

He'll almost certainly end up in New York, but i will laugh for days if he signs somewhere else and the Knicks are left standing with their dick in their hands. Would be the perfect icing on the giant sh*t cake that has been the last decade of Knickerbocker basketball.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

i know i'd crack a smile

 

[Alehana]

has he been quoted as saying he will be heading there?

 

[McLovin]

Even if Lebron passes them up...The 2010 free agent market is full of stars for them to pursue...

 

[McLovin]

They're even calling a Lebron + Bosh combo in NY...

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

lebron is a big timer ... NY is big time ... lebron will finish the career in NY

The whole NY situation is f**king dumb. What happens if the Cavs win a ring this year or the next, which is a very likely possibility. Imo that would change everything. I'm not saying he won't go, just that a sh*tload can happen in two years. I don't get why Lebron has to go to NY because its big time. Jordan didn't need NY to become a global superstar, don't see why the same can't apply to Lebron.

PS. Despite my post, i think it would kinda be funny to see Lebron go to NY. Would send Cavs basketball back to the "good old days".

 

[Tiger Hawk]

I still think the Nets are a good chance at signing him, although their move to Brooklyn being put on hold might change that. In all probability he'll go to the Knicks but it isn't signed, sealed and delivered yet.

Either way, New York will have plenty of cap space and there'll be Wade, Bosh, Stoudemire & others to attract if they don't get the King. They'll land one of those fish.

Nobody's talking about the Magic, but they'll have a bit of space come the summer of 2010 with Howard, Lewis & Nelson the only guys on the book after that season. Which perimeter player in their right mind wouldn't want to play with the new Superman? A Howard / Wade combo would be like the new Shaq / Kobe and Lewis is the perfect compliment to them, ideal third guy.

won't change anything except lebron will atleast have 1 championship in his career instead of 0

 

[Special K]

the cavs have no chance in hellllll of winning a ring.

Well they do. But they can't and they won't.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

the cavs are probably the best chance to win a ring behind the celtics going back to back

True that, LA's defense is non-existent at times, not capable of locking teams down.
