[ace3g]

chadfordinsider

Breaking: Contract details of LeBron, Wade & Bosh LeBron & Bosh sign 6 year, $110M dollar deals. Wade signs 6 year, $107M dollar deal.

[eyeh8u]

after all that crying they are still doing a sign and trade

[ace3g]

chadfordinsider

LeBron & Bosh start at $14.5M ... $2M less starting salary than max. Wade starts at $14.2M. Overall each took about $15M less

[DMX7]

What did Cleveland get in the sign and trade?

[BRHornet45]

Wade is the best of the 3 yet he makes less?

[eyeh8u]

What did Cleveland get in the sign and trade?

trade exemption

[ace3g]

not sure if that 15M less each figure is correct? that doesn't seem right

[eyeh8u]

Wade is the best of the 3 yet he makes less?

sacrifice for the team, he also has the best public image right now

[BRHornet45]

sacrifice for the team, he also has the best public image right now

son he also has herpes as well

[mytespurs]

Wade is the best of the 3 yet he makes less?

He's being unselfish-they all wanted to play together.......right now it's still "his" team despite the star additions.....

[MiamiHeat]

and here is lebron getting ripped

he took less money, shares the spotlight, and is unselfish

[eyeh8u]

not sure if that 15M less each figure is correct? that doesn't seem right

it more like 13 mil, the max was 121 mil before we found out the cap grows about 2 mill more, so maybe a mill or two more than previously though

ie joe johnsons max deal of 121 mill is something like 123 mill now

[024]

i'm surprised gilbert and james still worked together after last night's incident.

[Shastafarian]

Damn so the Heat have like $8-9 million to work with

[eyeh8u]

son he also has herpes as well

great nonsense post, are you gonna start smelling anuses like lakerfan

[mytespurs]

after all that crying they are still doing a sign and trade

I guess they deserve a bit of credit for putting personal animosity aside......and they end up with something......better than nothing.

[BRHornet45]

great nonsense post, are you gonna start smelling anuses like lakerfan

son its true, just google it

[MiamiHeat]

so bosh and lebron take about 13-14 mil less

and wade takes like 17mill less

wow.

thats a lot of money guys. stop fucking around and admit it. lebron is unselfish.

[BRHornet45]

the max was supposed to be 6 years, 130mil right? or 125?

that means wade took $18-23 million less

lebron & bosh took $20 million less

???

son Stern is paying each of them some "under the table money" anyways.

[eyeh8u]

$58.044 million
-14.5
-14.5
-14.2
-.9 chalmers

=

13.95 millions before mike miller

[eyeh8u]

they got room for another max player, cp3 is coming too

[Shastafarian]

What about cap holds?

[BRHornet45]

they got room for another max player, cp3 is coming too

son although Paul has 2 years left, I expect him to cuckold out to his booty buddy Lebron any day now.

[ace3g]

it more like 13 mil, the max was 121 mil before we found out the cap grows about 2 mill more, so maybe a mill or two more than previously though

ie joe johnsons max deal of 121 mill is something like 123 mill now


oh ok, for some reason I was thinking 15 M less per year and that didn't seem right

[024]

chadfordinsider

LeBron & Bosh start at $14.5M ... $2M less starting salary than max. Wade starts at $14.2M. Overall each took about $15M less
someone check my numbers. chalmers makes 800k. if wade takes 14.2 and lebron and bosh both take 14.5, it's .8 + 14.2 + 14.5 +14.5 = $44 million.

58-44 = $14 milllion of cap space. wtf? is that true?

[MiamiHeat]

Wade was very determined to bring Udonis Haslem back

so this means, Haslem is coming back

so now the Heat add

Mike Miller + Udonis Haslem to the Big 3

:)

[DMX7]

They also got 2 first round picks, 2 second round picks and the right to trade one of their first round picks for one of Miami's future first round picks.

[MiamiHeat]

told you guys Riley would solve the stupid "roster" problem

[eyeh8u]

What about cap holds?


if its just some of the second or third round picks, total it cant be more that 3 mill

[Amarelooms]

Son these teams doing S&T is gonna screw over the Mavs. What bad luck that when the Mavs have the Dust chip these clowns (Bosh and Lebron) go to the same team and get S&T after their original teams said they wouldn't trade them lol

Now Cleveland might go after Al Jefferson and over pay him...thus screwing over the Mavs who are in negotiations to get him. Well it sucks to be a Mavs fan....oh well...as long as the cHeat don't win

:elephant

[eyeh8u]

why do you want udonis haslem

[eyeh8u]

this superteam is gonna be comically stacked

[himat]

How the hell do they still have all this money? This is bull shit.

[MiamiHeat]

lol, mavs want al jeff now?? i think they can still get him. cuban is smart

the nba now is basically the good markets/owners stealing all the nba talent from the shitty franchises so they can say WEE STAAACKED

[bostonguy]

MH whats the word on Mike Miller? They have about 13 million to spend. How much would Haslem cost to resign? You'd have a little over 7 million or so AFTER getting Miller. I'd imagine you split that with Haslem and another player. If Eddie House could be had for cheap, he'd be worth getting. He is a cocky sob but he can shoot and make big shots. That's assuming you don't land Fisher though.

[eyeh8u]

the three egos took less cash, mainly upfront, to free up capspace

[DMX7]

That's interesting since there isn't a third round in the NBA draft.

from Woj twitter

Miller needs for James, Wade and Bosh to sign deals before he can slot into available space. Miller's father says he's going to Miami. about 13 hours ago (http://twitter.com/WojYahooNBA/status/18124416811) via UberTwitter (http://ubertwitter.com/)

[024]

should have used the cap space to go after players like haywood or keep jermaine o'neal. only decent bigs left are shaq and scola. i shudder thinking about scola ending up on the heat.

[Killakobe81]

Very good team ...

But I am not shaking in my Kobe hurrache's ...

Bring it ...

This will be the sweetest of 3 peats ...

[MiamiHeat]

why do you want udonis haslem

are you joking

1) he's a florida native. miami boy, home grown. VERY LOYAL and fan favorite

2) he took home team discount in 2005, even though many teams were trying to steal him. result : 2006 ring

3) that 2006 ring, haslem played a huge part. he played very good D on dirk nowitzki


he is a scrappy, hard working player. he plays D, has a reliable little pet shot he takes at the top of the key, rebounds, ......

yeah, we need him.

[eyeh8u]

That's interesting since there isn't a third round in the NBA draft.


sorry i meant second or third pick, i didn't know how many they had, as you can tell, im not a big draft guy

[Killakobe81]

Haslem is a good player you need someone to do dirty work ...

[Shastafarian]

Let's say they have $14 million before Miller and cap holds. Worst case they still have like 6 or 7 million bucks left to spend after right? Sucks for every team not named Heat.

[Mr.Stern]

son Stern is paying each of them some "under the table money" anyways.

Hush!!!

[024]

haslem is not going to be able to guard centers, which is what the heat need. if they blow their cap space on haslem, they won't be able to get a reliable defensive center.

[Shastafarian]

sorry i meant second or third pick, i didn't know how many they had, as you can tell, im not a big draft guy

They had 3 second round draft picks.

[ducks]

so bosh and lebron take about 13-14 mil less

and wade takes like 17mill less

wow.

thats a lot of money guys. stop fucking around and admit it. lebron is unselfish.

quiting on your team is selfish

[ace3g]

STEIN_LINE_HQ

Addendum to @chadfordinsider info: All three Heaters have Early Termination Option after Year 4. Meaning we can do this again in July 2014

[eyeh8u]

i would try to find someone taller than 6-8, all they need are two tall thick 7 footers with decent defense and they have the lakers covered, 6-8 is going to be boozer in the playoffs this year

[eyeh8u]

They had 3 second round draft picks.

thanks for the correction

[ace3g]

STEIN_LINE_HQ

Bron, Wade and Bosh have ETOs (opt-outs) after 2013-14 season and then Player Options entering Year 6, which is 2015-16 season

[eyeh8u]

STEIN_LINE_HQ

Bron, Wade and Bosh have ETOs (opt-outs) after 2013-14 season and then Player Options entering Year 6, which is 2015-16 season

if james mom doesn't magically get herpes from now til year 6 i dont think they will use the etos

[baseline bum]

Wow. Miami is in pretty fucking good shape with those deals taken by Bosh/James/Wade.

CAP $58 milllion
-----------------
Wade $14.2M
James $14.5M
Bosh $14.5M
Miller $5.2M
Chalmers $0.85M
Cap holds for 6 roster spots under 11 = 6*$474k = $2.8M

Remaining capspace: $6M

They could realistically get Haslem and Fisher for that. Give Haslem $3.5M and Fisher $3M. :wow

[ducks]

well miller gets 5 mle of that if he resigns
they still need a center

and their bench will suck

[DMX7]

Hush!!!

I swear. There isn't a forum on earth with more godamn trolls.

[ducks]

heat should have wade come of the bench and then play all the fourth with james and bosh


wade would then look like a saint and heat would have a bench

[DPG21920]

That is a pretty good chunk of money they left on the table. Surprised. They will have some room to operate. Even if they can't get all the pieces this year, over the next two years they will be able to add nice pieces.

[JamStone]

Actually is pretty impressive by all three guys. I know when you've already made or guarantee to make well over $100 million in your career, going from $120 million to around $90-100 million is much easier to do. But I still think you have to commend them for really finding a way to make it work and still give Riley some wiggle room to try to construct a solid supporting cast. Don't give them too much credit because they're already multi-multi-millionaires. But give them a little bit of credit.

[Kevin Durant 35]

Im suprised how it all worked out and they still have shitload of cap space.

Is there any good FA centers?

[eyeh8u]

I swear. There isn't a forum on earth with more godamn trolls.

i think there should be a troll cleansing from st, its out of control, there are 2 stern trolls battling it out, one is david stern the other is mr stern

[Shastafarian]

Wow. Miami is in pretty fucking good shape with those deals taken by Bosh/James/Wade.

CAP $58 milllion

Wade $14.2M

They could realistically get Haslem and Fisher for that. Give Haslem $3.5M and Fisher $3M. :wow
They could offer Fisher $4 mil to force LA to offer more or give up on him. Fisher for $4mil isn't so bad with that team. Then they have their 3 draft picks + any vets who want to win a ring.

[MiamiHeat]

IraHeatBeat

More word coming out that Heat has found a way to retain free-agent power forward Udonis Haslem. Heck, Riley probably still has cap space.

No way I'd offer that to Fisher... not at the expense of Haslem. Maybe $4.5M to Haslem and $2M to Fisher would be more reasonable, seeing that Haslem is 30 (for some reason I thought he was 33 or 34).

[Zelophehad]

son he also has herpes as well

It would most likely be a bluff to get LA to fork over more. Word is they want him for under $3 mil.

[ducks]

Udonis Haslem can he stay healthy?

[Danny.Zhu]

Wade was very determined to bring Udonis Haslem back

so this means, Haslem is coming back

so now the Heat add

Mike Miller + Udonis Haslem to the Big 3

:)

Wow.

[eyeh8u]

Any idea what Haslem's getting paid?


Salary2010: $7,100,000 - thats his old salary, im guessing half that now

[ducks]

DID MILLER AGREE TO HEAT OR NOT FOR 30 million?

[ducks]

Salary2010: $7,100,000 - thats his old salary, im guessing half that now

can not be if miller is getting 5 million
only 6 million in cap space

[eyeh8u]

only free agent Centers left are Shaq, Big Z, and Brad Miller

[eyeh8u]

can not be if miller is getting 5 million
only 6 million in cap space

read the post, thats his old salary, my guess is he is going to take a hometown/superteam discount and sign for about half 4 mill at most

[Zelophehad]

I'll laugh out loud if they sign Haslem with the rest of their money and try to play Bosh at center. Howard would set up under the rim in every half court set.

[Shastafarian]

Big Z for vet min I bet.

[eyeh8u]

Big Z for vet min I bet.

Nike is pushing for this, so they can still use the Z puppet

[MiamiHeat]

if james mom doesn't magically get herpes from now til year 6 i dont think they will use the etos

these deals set up a future opt out/re-sign with miami for more money once the HEAT are set up with MLE players and stuff

so they sacrifice NOW, but can make it up then.

they will be heat players by then and not free agents like now, so miami gets those advantages when you resign your own player

[Zelophehad]

Big Z for vet min I bet.
They'll have no one to guard Howard at all in that case. Howard kicked the dog shit out of Big Z in the 2009 Conference Finals. Plus Z looked done last year. Not sure if it will make a difference though.

new CBA almost guarantees they wont get the same money per year as the deal now

shaq , :)

[baseline bum]

I forgot about Ilguauskas. No way he doesn't follow LeBron there.

[024]

i don't think haslem will be getting a drastic paycut. this will be his last big contract. heat might have no choice but to give him $6-7 million or he walks. might be worth it though. haslem is wade's fisher.

[Shastafarian]

shaq , :)

If Shaq guards Howard on the block, Dwight will go by him faster than Luva can say Salam!

[eyeh8u]

Are you still viewing black cocks online. I got one for you.


Hilarious! you must write for two and a half men

[Kevin Durant 35]

shaq , :)

True. Shaq is the only one who can guard Dwight even though he nearly 50 years old.

[eyeh8u]

i don't think haslem will be getting a drastic paycut. this will be his last big contract. heat might have no choice but to give him $6-7 million or he walks. might be worth it though. haslem is wade's fisher.

if i was the riley, i would let him walk, he was drastically overpaid because out the 06 season, 7 mill for 6-8 is not worth it

[eyeh8u]

If Shaq guards Howard on the block, Dwight will go by him faster than Luva can say Salam!

he will go by shaq, do that retarded running hook shot, and brick, just like he always does, 7 feet out Howard is useless

[Shastafarian]

he will go by shaq, do that retarded running hook shot, and brick, just like he always does, 7 feet out Howard is useless

Unless he's being guarded by an overweight 38 year old center.

[eyeh8u]

Unless he's being guarded by an overweight 38 year old center.

im not arguing with you, howard vs shaq , howard wins, but by 5 percent at most, if all you have to worry about is Howard the Magic are still fucked with the rest of their roster, their toughest player was matt barnes last year

[Shastafarian]

I'm just saying Shaq vs Z is pretty much a wash. Shaq might have easier times defensively but Z has a better shot/range. Plus Z would probably go for vet min while Shaq wants MLE or close to it.

[eyeh8u]

if shaq wants mle than if i was riley i would say gtfo, they dont even have an MLE,

I justed, checked and much to my suprise and z is younger than shaq, maybe that might be a plus, i always though he was older, looks 45

[Shastafarian]

Well what I meant was Shaq wants MLE type money. I doubt Riley goes for either but who knows at this point.

Naw, the whole reason Cleveland got Shaq was because Howard shit on Z. And Shaq did a good job on Dwight in the regular season last year. He's still stronger than Howard.

[Shastafarian]

Naw, the whole reason Cleveland got Shaq was because Howard shit on Z. And Shaq did a good job on Dwight in the regular season last year. He's still stronger than Howard.

Wasn't Z hurt the year before?

[Zelophehad]

They should get at least one big huge body to keep Howard from setting up right under the rim before every play. Hell that 300 lb scrub Fesenko from Utah would be better than nothing. Maybe him plus Z.

[eyeh8u]

that dude couldn't even catch a pass

[Zelophehad]

Wasn't Z hurt the year before?
Howard was just way too strong for him. Couldn't stop him from setting up shop under the rim.

[Zelophehad]

that dude couldn't even catch a pass

Yeah, he's a scrub like I said. But he's 300 lbs, and all he has to do is play 20 minutes a game against the Magic and keep Howard from setting up underneath the basket though.

[eyeh8u]

Yeah, he's a scrub like I said. But he's 300 lbs, and all he has to do is play 20 minutes a game against the Magic and keep Howard from setting up underneath the basket though.

i really think even with pittman and a serviceable big they have Orlando beat, i think only opposition is LA, and i dont think they are a lock out of the west next year

[MiamiHeat]

you guys act like howard is prime shaq

the guy is a fucking scrub on offense, he only has like 2 moves

dunk and layup

anything past that, and you see an awkward, offensively limited wannabe trying to be a scorer.

howard needs to accept his role in life. he's a rebounding machine, blocks shots, score a little, but thats about it.

he can have his 20 ppg, heck, even 30 ppg. fuck him

nobody else will be able to step up. just guard howard 1on1 and keep him from setting up under the rim, and he's neutered.
