The Lakers have a 6-7% chance while some other teams are at 20% and higher. Do you think the NBA will fix the odds to give LA the top pick? Even if LA legitly won the lottery won't everyone claim it was fixed anyways?
Can you say Lebron going to cleveland or Ewing to the Knicks?
-
Yeah, if the lakers get the #1 or #2 pick and keep Gasol, they have a decent chance of signing a Lebron this offseason. Even though kobe is a pain in the ass, he's still a huge storyline and lebron loves to be in the center of the league-wide drama story.
They tend to fix it most years for the best 'storyline'. Would be shocked to see Jazz and Philly with top picks lol.
-
I think there is a good chance they get a top pick. Also i predict they will sign either Lebron or Kevin Love.
-
Lebron ain't going to the Lakers.

LMAO!!!! Lebron will not be going LA . Kobe is the alpha male and could NEVER play with Lebron. Kevin Love, maybe. Id actually build a team around Love. IMO, he fits in best with Chicago OR Houston.

I had to put up with "Boss" for the last two years. Now, everyone is an "Alpha". Godzilla was an "Alpha" predator. Those monkeys over at Shredz sell "Alpha Stacks". I'm just curious when this new trend will end and what's next?

Love is going to the Clippers or Chicago.

Love is going to the Clippers or Chicago.
clippers would be DEADLY with Love.
Funny how the CLIPPERS is a better playing destination than the Lakers

Wade is up for a BIG max long-term payday this off-season. Lebron and Bosh can both opt out this year. They'll have to take LESS $ than Wade to stay. Will they do that? I dunno. Will Bosh bolt with his 2 rings for a massive paycheck to be on another team?
If things in miami were the same, yes, lebron would be crazy to leave. But if Bosh leaves, and their bench remains this weak, and Wade is making $5 mil more than him to be injured 1/3 the season... and every team in the league rolls out the red carpet for him... and if they lose in the playoffs this year...
I could see LeBron leaving. I'd see that much more likely than him playing with a better-paid Wade and no bosh, losing every year to IND or Chicago with Love or Carmelo.

wade does not deserve a max payday.
His a mistake about to happen.
But I guess it's possible.
I say bosh goes, his pretty much the 3rd wheel.

Do you watch the nba?apart from small spurts, Gasol has been finished since 2011.

Riley wants championships and will cut ties if that means bringing in more players to help them win. He won't keep Wade if that means blowing this team up

bosh is the weakest link.
I think riley will reward wade for being loyal.
-
Wade in no way deserves a max contract at this stage in his career.
I'm sure at least one team will offer one though.
-
the big three will stay, others will leave if someone has to leave.

Ofcourse not, he is on his last legs, he cannot play back to back games anymore in his career.
-
Bosh is weak but when he's on he is a big help. Bosh had some big games in the finals last year that helped the Heat win. he is throwing up a lot of threes this year which is new to his game, he's had some timely shots but also has shanked a lot.
Wade's strength was his speed and agility. he had a second gear that was similar to Derrick Rose but with the bad knees that gear is gone. Bosh loves Miami and is not leaving unless told to. ESPN was talking about James going back to Cleveland. No way that happens, especially after what a dick the owner was to him. the owner sealed that casket shut.
I'll tell you this. One play the Lakers will get is Kyrie Irving. They'll have Irving, Wiggins with the rigged first pick, Kobe who I don't think can play anymore and possibly Bosh if the Heat don't keep him.
-
Kobe who I don't think can play anymore
I agree.

Silly F A G G O T S , "THIS IS MY TEAM!"
These people Of Los Angeles are so Stupid

kobe has done nothing in the last 4 years. He wont do anything in his last 2.
he will be hell bent in trying to beat jordans total points and match jordans 6th ring.
he will get injured, his knee or back will go out again.

damn it >:(
a few more years of not attending laker games due to this pompous asshole
-
Milwaukee has the best chance but no way the NBA is letting them get the #1 pick :-X
-
jalen rose just said on ESPN , that he wants no age on draft day, said there was an 11 yr old female tennis player
yes because we all want NBA teams to draft 7 yrs olds ???
::) Fucking Moron

NBA should send Sterling there as punishment.
-
If the Lakers do get the 1st lottery pick then yes , IT WILL BE FIXED Draft
-

Yes. And load his team up with all white players so he doesn't have to feel uneasy around blacks.

lakers #6
End of thread

wade is guaranteed a max contract. of course he doesn't deserve it. but will he take it? I bet he will.
-
LOL @ Cavs getting the #1 pick again.
sign lebron + keep kyrie irving + #1 pick... hmmmm
-
Bohica Cleveland
-
They will try. But hard to do when players conspire and all leave for the same team like the heat.
-
they want to all go to the lakers
but the massive ego that is #24 keeps them away for the time being

Talk about streteching to try to make a point!!!
Not only that, you quoted partly what he said to suit your commentary.
He said no age limit out of hs, but if you go to college, you have to stay 2 years.

Wade will be offered a 3 yr deal similar to Tim Duncan. They'll let him walk before they got stuck in 7 yr deal.

Wade's contract is technically up after the 2014-15 season, but he has an early termination option after next season and a player option in the last year of his deal. Additionally, his base salary exceeds $20 million in both of the final years of his contract ($20.1 million due next year and $21.6 due in the year after that).
That's a hefty chunk of change for any player, especially one who will be going into his 11th season next year. Even if the team as a whole continues to be successful, we may see a decline in Wade's individual performance in the next two seasons.
Wade has struggled with injuries from season to season, never having played a full 82-game slate during his whole career. What makes him such a liability to get hurt is his style of play that involves a lot more attacking the rim rather than perimeter jump shooting.
Therefore, I don't think it's worth the risk for the Heat to keep Wade beyond next season, especially considering the financial burden his contract carries. It's not a popular opinion among Miami fans, I'm sure, but if the team really wants to keep the success rolling with LeBron James still very much in his prime, then they might have to make a more logical decision over a sentimental one.
It may be a harsh reality to think this too, but the Heat may also benefit from having more cap-conscious talent to surround LeBron with in the future rather than one solid shooting guard in Wade. After seeing how dominant of a force James has been this season and will continue to be, it just makes so much more sense to spend the money on a stronger starting five and deeper bench rather than just three star players.
There's also the other side of this argument, where Wade could continue to play at a high level through the rest of his contract and maybe even sign another multi-year deal to play until retirement as a member of the Heat. I'm not saying that that's not a plausible scenario, I'm just saying that it seems unlikely for a guy who's already seeing decreases in his numbers compared to his career averages.
While it's the last thing in the mind of any Heat fan or team executive at this point of this season, the idea of trading Dwyane Wade may become a more tempting reality going into these next two seasons.
bleacher report
-
Sources told ESPN.com that all 30 teams were informed this week via league memorandum that an increase in the cap from this season's $58.6 million to $63.2 million in 2014-15.
To me, this sounds like a "Keep the Heat together another season!" rule :) Even with that, you add up the Big 3 salary, and you're well over $61 million already!
Lebron salary...
2014-2015 20,590,000
2015-2016 22,112,500
And BOSH salary:
2014-2015 20,590,000
2015-2016 22,112,500
And WADE salary:
2014-2015 20,164,000
2015-2016 21,655,000
SOMEBODY is going to have to take a pay cut. Or, maybe a Bosh signs a long-term deal elsewhere? Who knows. But all 3 coming back at their max salary, it's going to be impossible to get them any kind of help.

dan gilberts son is good luck.
Go for Wiggins, no centres.
-
see, wiggins is good, but it's so hard to find a quality center these days. i'd pick joel the center.

Wiggins is a sure thing.
-
The cavs will trade wiggins to the lakers for gosal
Just like the hornets traded kobe for divac years ago
-
If the cav's can't build around this pick they should be banned from the league.
-
No way I would take a center with a top pick. You must be trolling Rob.

See, this guy had to suffer with Greg Oden. I feel for you Calfzilla.
The big men today are brittle, go with Wiggins all day...You cannot lose, tremendous upside.
Lakers will most likely trade whichever loser comes in at #6.
as long as Kobe is a lakers they will either miss the playoffs or barely make it which means nothing cause Durant will step on him.

I'm eating breakfast with Shaq and Dwight Howard and they laugh at this post.
Our waiters Kwame and Bogut tend to agree with you though.

If this was the 90's then I would pick the centre, but all signs go to Wiggins, the Oden over Durant still hurts Blazer fans.
I don't trust centres anymore, Howard, Hibbert, Bogut, Oden. fuck it, injury prone and head cases.
-
everyone should be happy the cavs are picking first. They'll pick the biggest bust thus saving the other teams the agony of doing it themselves

I shudder to think how many championships the Blazers would have now if they picked Durant. :-X :-\ :'(

why help the lakers when the clippers have been enginered to replace them in the same market area...
-
the nba needs a winning lakers team its good for them

Didn't Oden enter the draft with knee surgery and the Blazers knew he wouldn't be able to play at the start of the season yet they still picked him? What a retarded pick.

At least that was like '84 and was only 3 so don't have the memories I have of Greg Oden.
