Bulls and Heat SHARE executive of the year award?

[salsadancer7]

Which other NBA team had enough space to sign LeBron, Wade and Bosh? Who besides the heat?

PS. Your son sounds wise. Must've got his brains from his Momma.

The Knicks, the Nets, Miami, Chicago, Minnesota, OKC and the Clippers ALL had cap space(cap room at the time was around $58) to sign Lebron and a decent 2nd tier FA with Knicks, Nets, Miami and Chicago all having space for 2 big names.

And OF COURSE Mrs. Salsa has the brains....she married ME...

Both guys were worthy candidates. Donnie Walsh of the Knicks also could have gotten some consideration.

True...but is Donnie Walsh really running that team...? LOL!

so those teams all had room for TWO big names while Miami was able to get all THREE. Besides, Wade did more to convince Bosh/LeBron to come to Miami than Riley ever could.

You guys are killing me....LOL! Has NOTHING to do with convincing if you cannot make the NUMBERS..... $$$$$$$$ .... work. Hell, I would LOVE a Porche and can easily convince my wife how wonderful a Porch would be....but if I ain't got the money or can make arrangements to make the money work....wanting means NOTHING.

You guys gotta get this thing about convincing players or pep talks or secret meetings. Convincing a player is one thing....getting everything signed, sealed and delivered is a whole different animal.

lol...miami was the only place they could all get together no matter what because of money. Bosh/LBJ still needed to be convinced it was the right move. does Riley deserve an award because his team had more cap space?

Hate away Cleveland boys, hate away....

I hate the Big Quit AKA lebron and the heat and have no shame admitting it. I can't tell you how much pleasure I'll get if the Bulls or Hawks knock Wade's team out in the ECF. The quitter is a gifted athlete but a pathetic competitor. Way to celebrate your second round victory as if you just 3-peated, LeQuit.

Lol.... dude, the team in Cleveland was base on Lebron and Lebron only. They had nothing in cap space nor anything to trade to improve. Hell, I got sucked into THINKING they would have been a playoff team without him.... I was wrong, that record this year PROVED they were bad without him. So because he KNEW the Cavs had no room to grow, they blew their wad. They were NOT gonna get any better...they nothing to offer for a big name player. So he moved on.

He dropped to his knees and appeared to cry into his hands a la Michael Jordon (after winning a championship).

34 points for Lebron...scoring the final 10 points of the game. 33 for Wade.

He slayed the team that has been his #1 competition...the Celtic dragon.

Please. He possibly could have done the same last year but he QUIT.

actually let me correct you on that . wade 34pts lebron 33pts. wade had 23pts at the half right???

 

[Rey]

i agree he quit on you guys but i disagree about possibly beating the celtics. let me add that this heat team wouldn't have beat last years celtics either.but it would've been a longer series too

LOL thanks, I can read a box score. My 'what did he do' question was in response to the post stating that Lebron celebrated the win like he just three-peated.

But of course, you knew that.

with the team the Cavs had....? Maybe if he averaged 40, 20 and 10. I just don't see that now.

But you win...will not bring up that argument AGAIN..
