Default Re: Lebron, Bosh and Wade on the same team

I'd LOVE to see someone like Lee suing LeBron for chances missed. Lee wanted to stay in NY area and Nets were looking at him, but everything was predicated on LeBron's "decision", which we know now was decided LONG AGO.

The league can and should step in with no uncertainty, limited cap room and no first round picks for the duration of the contracts LeBron, Wade and Bosh signed. Six years. Telling others that in future if they want to play same game, they can expect to stagnate for the duration of their scheme. This is not just tampering, but with 2 different players at the same time with the GM coordinating for months.

What's the media saying about this? I haven't really heard a whole lot about this.

I'm going to assume that the media, i.e. espn, hasn't said anything about this

Considering Florida has no state income tax, the loss is probably minimal.

I'll be interested to see how this works out as well as who will come off the bench as I don't know who's left.

Although I see Miami probably being top in the East, they still won't beat the Lakers for a while in a best of 7 series.

And the Yankees have bought a whole lot more than 3 great players and conspired to win a whole lot more than 1 title.

I was going to go on about all New Jersey has but it's the summer and you should really enjoy yourself.

(I grew up in NJ and haven't managed to do a u-turn on I-95 in 20 years)

The heat are picking us some players to go with the 3 huckstateers but I don't see them winning more than maybe 1 title in 5 years.

With the state tax difference and the fact that he makes more in endorsements than playing ball in the big picture it is not much at all.
