Deng is gonna be a good NBA player when he gets on the right team or players around him, he isn't a star, but he is very solid.

They would either have to take way less in salary to get them there and/or trade Deng after which they would still have to take less money to fit under the cap. I don't see that happening. After looking at all the Centers under contract for teams with cap room the only one I could see is Okafur and he has an equally horrible contract and would offer no cap relief. Portland has 3 Centers but Oden is still a question mark and Camby makes a lot of dough as well. While others would have to be included to make that deal work I dont know why Portland would want Deng. I guess Indiana and Hibbert could be possible but again why would Indiana want Deng when they have Granger?

If Wade and Bosh work it so that they both sign with Chicago, the bulls could still add another decent FA using the MLE or adding two players by splitting the MLE. Kyle Korver could be a potential target. Or JJ Redick though you'd think Orlando would keep him. They also have the BAE as well but the limit for that is low enough that you rarely get an impact player or even a role player.

Really Wade can screw LeBron by going to the best situation and taking the 2nd best player with him as well. Chicago with Rose, Wade, Bosh, Deng and Noah with a good MLE pickup and Gibson is a pretty formidible 7 man rotation.
