![]() How about trading one of those picks in a package for Love?
Starting five: carter Williams LeBron Carmelo noel Love No? could they make the cap space work? Last edited by dalakhani : 06-25-2014 at 01:11 PM. Reason: adding thought about cap space |

I have no idea if they could do this with cap space since LeBron, Bish and Carmello would all be asked to take less than max. |

![]() I think pretty highly of Carter-Williams. I think he's more of a guy that can handle the ball than he is a natural point guard. Having guys like Melo and James there would get him much better looks and cut out a lot of the bad shots. He's already a pretty decent defender. I feel like he'd be a huge upgrade from Cole and Chalmers. I doubt even you would disagree with me that Anthony would be an upgrade over Wade at this point. So the question is would you rather have Anderson and Bosh or Noel and Embiid? I'd take the latter. I think lowest projections would say Noel and Embiid could get you 20-15 and the potenti is there for more. Bosh and Anderson already have hit their ceilings. At worst, Noel and Embiid could anchor the defensive middle. At best, you may be looking at 25-30 and 20 boards. Carter-Williams can guard the point guards and shooting guards and so he and James could be interchangeable. With that 10th pick, go out and try to draft a shooter. A guy like McDermott may be available and he and Young alone make for a better bench than Miami has.

![]() My thinking is that if Anthony goes to Chicago, they become the favorites in the East just like that. With the way Wade is fading fast, Miami has a hard time staying above Indiana. James could go West and if he joined either Houston or the Clippers, that team becomes the favorite in the West but the road is still tougher than the East. Short of Anthony coming to Miami, the best chance of James making repeated trips to the finals is if he and Melo joined up in Philly.

![]() Younger is about it. If you asked every GM which they would rather have Anthony would be unanimous choice.

![]() No way is Houston trading Harden for Anthony. The only way is if they also sign James. Chicago doesn't have to do much to make the room.

![]() As expected, Bosh and Wade opted out and Haslem joined them.

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/06/joel...tress-fracture “The younger you are, the better you heal. He’s still a growing kid. There’s no guarantee. You’re talking about an NBA team with millions of dollars on the line. … The longer the fracture’s there, the longer it can take to heal. … If I didn’t need the kid the first year … he might be worth a chance.” That is coming from a guy with no skin in the game. The GM that takes him will have his ass on the line. Even if Philly had some sort of home run sht at James there is no way they take a injured, project at 3 and he likely wont be there at 10 |
