Okay so I'm not sure if this thread will get much attention, but if you are out there and you pay attention to Basketball just enough to know about who is being traded where or who just got signed by your favorite team, I'd like to hear about it. So this is kind of an open discussion on whatever you guys want to talk about regarding what going on in the NBA, but I'd like to start it off with a few questions
Where do you think the "Big 3" will end up? (James, Wade, and Bosh)
Personally, I have not been keeping that much track of these three, I heard on a bleacher report that just recently James and Wade sat down to have lunch and they were basically discussing what it would take to stay the same. It's pretty obvious Wade is getting a little old and probably won't withstand a whole other season, maybe half or three quarters of one but I doubt he'd play every game. Plus, Lebron wants to go somewhere he can get a ring, that's all he cares about. Bosh on the other hand, is basically being looked at by all the teams that know they can't pick up James, Wade, or Melo.
Where do you think Melo will end up?
Okay, so this is the one I've mainly been looking at because there is big talk about Melo coming to the Bulls. Me being from Chicago, I'm pretty happy about that. Now, do I think it will happen? Honestly, probably not, because the team already has a good foundation and they don't want to take a chunk of money to chance what they have. Maybe they will I really don't know. There was at one point talk of him going to the Heat but as explained above I think they have other things to worry about. Plus Lebron and Melo on the same team wouldn't click, they're too similar, they both want to be the billboard of the team and you have to establish one leader or else it won't work. (Like Scottie Pippen and MJ). Finally, there was also a lot of talk about the Knicks capping there money to keep him, so that is also a deciding factor. Now all he wants is a ring and money, just like every other player, so where he will end up I have no idea but like I said I would like for it to be the Bull.
Where do you think Kevin Love will end up?
This deal is probably the least i've kept track with mainly because I am not that much of a Kevin Love fan, but I know he was a really big factor in the Timberwolves offense and some people really like him. The only team I really saw that had interest in him was Golden State I believe. I don't really know what they would do with him though, they could probably move David Lee to center and run a small starting lineup, again where he will go beats me but I'm excited to see where all of them end up.
So if this thread doesn't get any attention and you did take the time to era all of that, at least you can say you learned a bit about whats going on in the NBA in the off season.
