Obviously James is the biggest name if he opts out but if Carmelo resigns with the Knicks and they slog through 2014-15 they will have Hardaway, Shumpert, Anthony, a 1st round pick, a ton of cap space and a credible guy in charge even though he has no front office experience. What if Miami wins this year, Bosh and James stay in Miami one more year then relocate to NY? Bosh is a perfect triangle fit and James can play any role.

Maybe I'm delusional but try to imagine where else James would go? Where else makes sense?

I thought NY was not possible, it is. After this year, I think if they win this year they come back for next year. Maybe win again, then Lebron goes to NY.

They wildly exceeded expectations, have no contract albatrosses and three #1 picks between 14 and 27 in this years draft.

Watching teams like the Suns get left out makes me wonder if it would make sense to give the top pick to the best record among non playoff teams.

Then we would have potential playoff teams tanking. Would you rather have the #1 pick or play San Antonio? I'm taking the pick.

While making the playoffs for a team like the Suns is great, fact is it just extends their season a week as they have little chance to make it through 4 seven game series.

They had a great season.

At least the Dbacks are terrible and we know it early in the season.

Well that and ASU

Um, women's hoops made it to the 2nd round and lost to national runner-up, in state rival's women's hoops was 5-25

In state rival's softball is ranked 9th......ASU 10th....golly.

Got hammered in bowl game, in state rival won theirs

Went nowhere as usual in hoops, in state rival just missed final 4 and has top class coming again

In baseball not ranked in top 25 like in state rival who won nat'l championship 2 years ago.
