2010 NBA Free-Agency

Okay Ladies and Gentleman, grab your popcorn and a nice cozy seat because this show called the NBA Free-Agency is going to be very interesting. There are a huge number of high-profile stars who's contracts are up now that the season is coming to a close and Teams have been clearing up cap space just to pursue those players.

Okay first off I want to talk about Lebron James, who is the headliner of this whole thing. Let's think about something first, New York, to me is not an option. People can say all they want about how its a bigger market bigger stage, whatever. I believe that LeBron has more basketball savvy than that, than to just go to NY just to make more money. Now if we were talking about Tracy McGrady, then that's another thing. But LeBron is not going to want to get beat nigh-in and night-out. Secondly, Lebron is world-wide renown already. Going to NY is not going to make him any bigger of a star than he already is. He is already the face of the NBA....young, athletic and exciting to watch. Everyone knows of him. Point being: NY would be a dumb decision to me.

Now the one superstar I think that is going to be a guaranteed move: Chris Bosh. Chris Bosh is a budding superstar who gets a lot less recognition that he is deserving because of his locale and his team. Toronto doesn't get much national TV exposure and they aren't a very good team at all anyway. If Chris Bosh wants to win a title or at least be able to contend for one, he is going to have to relieve himself of his tie to the Raptors. I think that Chris Bosh can't be happy with not making the playoffs and there are teams who contend willing to pay him, that there is a SLIM chance of him returning to Canada. I think a good situation for him would be to go to Chicago or Miami. They both fit his style of play and LeBron is not going to either one of those places.

Now Wade, on the other hand. I think that he isn't going anywhere. He is playing in South Beach, and he is the man there. I'm sure that it is a situation that Wade would not want to remove himself from. Although they do need some help becase Mike Beasley is not panning out how they hoped and they just need another piece to compete, I think it will take A LOT to get wade from the Heat.

HOLLA
