Have heard nothing about but as a fan of the Cavs would like to see a Gibson to Heat for Cook trade.For whatever reason Daquean Cook has fallen into the doghouse for Miami and Gibson is showing me nothing for his third season.If Miami was willing I would pull this in a second or atleast see what they want.That would give you some insurance on the headcase West.Cook can get his points coming off bench which is exactly what Cavs need,Gibson can't create own shot and is terrible on D.
TRADE
- Thread starter eeeerock
- Start date
Riley will make no moves right now. The more I hear the more Miami has a very legitimate shot at signing LEBRON.
If they dont make the Finals this year I will make a wager right now he is G-O-N-E. Can you imagine LEBRON-WADE that is a dynasty for a decade.
Lebron will not go to the Heat, if anything Wade will leave the Heat. I would be very surprised to see Lebron leave Cleveland outside of going to the Knicks or Nets.
The Heat are the only team in the entire NBA 40 million under the cap and with the capability to sign an additional superstar besides resigning Wade. Not saying it will happen for sure but believe you and me Riley has had discussions with Wade regarding signing Lebron.
Im not sure where your getting your dollar figures from but the two sources that I used pretty much had the same figures:
Based on a 50 million cap
Nets will have 21.3 million
Knicks 19.8 (could be higher if they move Curry)
Heat 14.9
Bulls 9.3
TWolves 8.5
It will be tough for the Heat to sign James since he will make at least 22-24 million. They would have to sign and trade for him, but outside of Wade they have little to offer in a trade since their roster is comprised of average to garbage players.
Cavs cans give James nearly 25 million more than any other team in the NBA.

The source was Pat Riley in an interview....He said over 40 million ?
More than any team in the NBA.
Not really. They still couldn't beat Boston or the Lakers.
What good does 2 superstars do you when you have nobody else?
Who's going to guard Garnett, Rondo, Gasol, Bynum, Odom?
Multiple superstars doesn't work in the modern era unless it's SCORER + CENTER.
I have to agree with Bucs, even if Lebron went to Miami they would have a hard time winning it all since Miami has alot of garbage players outside of Wade.
I mean, the common answer would be to sign big men cheap, etc...but who the hell is that going to be? The Collins brothers? LOL
2 scoring superstars won't win a title consistantly, you have to build a team.
