Actually it would really only be a good starting 3 for now - lol

This whole rumor mill thing is a joke! July 8th can't come soon enough. Everyone throws shit out there and someone is going to get lucky and right and look like they knew it all along. Like damn sports services. lol

Stephen A has no sources anymore.

I remember when he reported years ago Tubby Smith was walking around the Wachovia Center about to be offered the Sixers job....2 hours after Tubby Smith gave a press conference in Kentucky that he was staying

Stephen A. Smith has been known to make strong claims without having any real foundation... however, based on the rumors that the 3 met in Miami, and based on the fact that the 3 of them could team up together and begin a reign of terror like we haven't seen since the Celtics of the late 60s... i think it definitely is a possibility...

the only two things holding up this deal are 1) whether or not Lebron and/or Wade would rather try to win a title without the other, and 2) coaching concerns...

the key to this deal happening is Beasely... if Miami can unload that waste of oxygen, thus freeing up a bit of money to grab a role player or two, it will all come down to Lebron...

This is definitely the one possibility that will leave Chicago out in the cold... if the 3 don't team up in Miami, i am certain Lebron will be on the Bulls next year, most likely with Bosh next to him...

I think it is gonna happen. The Heat know something we all don't......My question is, can just the 3 of them win it all? It will basically be a 3 man team with no good role or bench players right? Miami is a great city and I don't blame anyone for waiting to go there, but they basically have no team so what makes them wanna go there?

Beasley & Chalmers only 2 under contract. If this actually happened I think you'd see other guys come play in Miami for minimum that could be decent role players. I doubt they'd be able to resign Haslem with the big 3. I can't see this happening but obviously dream come true for Heats fans if so

Sad state of affairs when an overrated piece of dung like Bosh going to get 30 mill per. Good riddance. Good thing is he's greedy like the rest of them so it will be a sign and trade deal so at least the Raptors will get something in return. I think the Knicks are easily the stupidest team so I can see him going there.

Wade already has a title so why would that be a concern to him? If those 3 sign pretty sure Riley is running down to the bench to pile up some more rings.

Would much rather see James and Bosh to Bulls vs the three of them playing together. If they do all 3 sign and I am Ray Allen I am just going there for league minimum.

agree, Lebron is probably more likely to be averse to this than Wade... and even though i think it would be fun to see a team like that, i would rather see two strong teams than one ridiculous team when all of this pans out...

seems like with Dirk opting out, both Chicago and Miami could both come out looking good when it's all over... unless Miami can pull off this trifecta...

I couldn't agree more! Too much freakin' drama right now. Several teams will get left at the alter!
