D12 WILL SIGN with LA

Melo would probably be more realistic.

CBA reality: Will the new tax pull apart Miami's Big Three? - NBA - Sporting News

As its payroll stands today, Miami is committed to seven players in 2014-15 at a total cost of $78.4 million. The bulk of that guaranteed money is scheduled to go to LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh, who will be paid $61.4 million altogether that season.
It's important to note that Miami's payroll for 2014-15 does not yet include low-salaried players who are crucial to its championship hopes -- contributors like Ray Allen, Shane Battier, Mario Chalmers, James Jones and Rashard Lewis, each a member of the Heat's current team. Those five players are making a combined $14.9 million this season.
Let's say that Miami, in order to remain in title contention in 2014-15, will add $14.9 million in cost-efficient role players to the seven men already contracted for that season. (The Heat may have to pay more than $14.9 million for similar complementary talent two seasons from now, but let's stick with that conservative figure for the sake of argument.) Here's what it means: If their ambitions remain high and they're able to keep costs as low as possible, then the Heat will be responsible for a payroll totaling $93.3 million -- and that's before the brutal impact of the repeater tax kicks in.

At the conclusion of 2014-15, the repeater tax will make its dreaded debut by punishing teams that have paid a luxury tax for four consecutive seasons. Miami is on a path to be hit with an enormous penalty in the summer of 2015.

As a repeat taxpayer, the Heat will be facing the highest incremental tax rates in NBA history. If, for example, the luxury-tax threshold is established at $75 million -- a highly optimistic gain of roughly $5 million from this season -- the Heat could be faced with a tax bill approaching $48 million. In total, they would be paying $141.3 million for 12 players.

"They're going to have to break up their team,'' predicted a rival general manager who has done the math.
Unless the NBA's financial circumstances improve over the next couple of years, Arison will be faced with two unhappy choices: The Heat could run a big deficit in 2014-15 to pursue the championship, or he could break up their winning roster by way of trades, amnesty or by not re-signing James, Wade or Bosh, should they exercise their options to become free agents in 2014.

Arison knows that all too well. That’s why the CBA got a “Nay” vote from him.

All that means is Chris Bosh might be in another jersey. Bron and Wade aint going nowhere.

you think that wheelchair wade over the next 3-5ryrs paired with bronze will gget them chips?

you think thats his best option ?

With Howard in the fold, the Lakers would walk into the recruitment of James next summer with the best center in the league and room for two other max players.

Lakers owner says it is no accident they have 2014 cap space | ProBasketballTalk

We purposely ended all contracts that year,” Buss said. “


“Yeah, depending on the free agents that year,” Buss said. “We would basically, money-wise, be able to sign the top free agent – maybe even two. I don’t know the numbers exactly, because we’re not privy to what the cap is and how much room we have, but it’s going to be close to two of the top free agents that year.”

even if the LAkers dont sign bronze which i think wont happen anyways.. with the ability for howard to team up with 2 other MAX players whoever they may be is the reason he will stay in LA + he can get the most money as well..

lets not forget about phil as well. he is also a draw for FA to come to LA

Phil Jackson Counseling Lakers' Jeanie Buss To Improve Team | Lakers Nation



Jackson addressed the fact that the Lakers are way over the salary cap and are looking at $60-80 million in taxes in the upcoming season. The new CBA can severely penalize teams who are over the cap for multiple years in a row. With the Lakers having such a high payroll going into next season, it can really limit their flexibility, Jackson feels.

“For them to be able to move and to adjust to the process that goes on in the NBA, you have to have flexibility. The [way] the league is structured with its new CBA and how it penalizes teams – you can’t make moves,” said Jackson. “[With] guys like Carmelo [Anthony] and LeBron [James] in a couple of years, you’ve got to be capable of making a challenge for those kinds of players.”

I can see why Dwight would want to come here though. We'd give him the best chance at winning a championship, he'd make millions from silicon valley endorsements, he'd play for a players coach, Steph Curry is about to become a star, David Lee would be the best 4 he's ever played with, plus many more bonuses. I just want him to hurry up and say no to us so we can sign some free agents before they're all gone.

With us he could run that orlando offense of him in the middle and shooters all around except on steroids and with legit elite shooters.

But Marc Stein always says bullshyt so I hope that nikka signs with houston

I frankly don't give a shyt what brons best option is. All i'm saying is that he's probably not going anywhere...and that Melo would be a more realistic outlook.
