THis has been an incredible chess game to behold and Im for one and enjoying it!
Lebron is being asked to save Clevelenad like Superman was after he got laid and lost his powers! Weird.
I Congradulate the knicks on making the first move what appears to be Amare. True they are over paying for him. This is not about Just amare, there is the big picture.
Bosh is not taking the lead although he really was in control of it all. HE wants 6 year max money. Over paying for AMare is not terrible as it causes others to react. Get it Briggy, its a chess game!
You force your opponent into a counter move and force the issue.
Unless Bosh comes off his max money deal and plays by Torontos rules now he loses the control. The Trio fantasy in Miami is gone. We made Toronto in control of Miami's destiny. THe Dude in the wheelChair has a white persian cat!!!! Toronto don't want Beas in sign and trade. Bosh needed to go first. He could not commit to Miami, Amare is not in Miami, so If Bosh don't go to south beach they are left with Booze. Wade sees Chicago and his Kids over Boozer and DLeagers in Miami.
DRose can be traded with Deng for Chris Paul. Me think?
Now the Alpha Dog Lebron can take a Pat Riley deal with bosh (he not gonna take the pay cut in miami, and NY is out) and now Pat the Rat can offer Wade and Lebron to play with Booze! THis cuts Lebron out of Miami. The Bosh-Lebron-Wade in Chicago is really not that real as bulls don't even have enough to sign two max's!!!!!
So Lebron is now faced with Chicago, but he got Amare and a shooter in Gallo in NY with Eddy's expiring! Or Take the "pat the rat trio salary cut deal" in NY with Amare AND JOE JOHNSON and the three of them make more money together than apart in NYC! (Pie in sky stuff, but plausible)
Knicks are forcing the pieces to react.
Of course we over pay for Amare. In a game of chess to win you have to make your opponent commit.
There are times you have to "lose the battle to win the war!" Congrats to Walsh for making the first move. I don't know how this all shakes out but Amare is taking in Broadway shows while Bosh is eating candy on christmas day. Problem is, your a grown man eating candy while AMare is eating at Sardi's! and shopping penthouse cribs.
Walsh is "Blofeld" in the Wheel Chair!
