Settle down.
Amare Stoudamire will be a Knick because he likes Coach Mike D'Antoni who doesn't believe in playing defence just like Amare. Amare is not going to be the saviour for any team, nor is he going to be the highlight reel for any team.
Lebron James wants a better defensive group around him.
Dwayne Wade is meeting with Pat Riley this week. The Dwayne Wade consideration is Miami or Chicago. Wade is from Chicago, his mother and sister live there; he is petitioning for sole custody of his children who are rooted in Chicago. If he stays in Miami, he's bringing his sister there to be the nanny. Chicago may be his best scenario for basketball and family. Chicago has lots of money an all star point guard and strong frontcourt. Bosh is a good possibility to join him there or Miami. Derek Rose is a key factor b/c he's just so good at the point.
Now, Carlos Boozer could be in the equation for Chicago as well.
Strangely enough, I think Lebron stays put. They give him part ownership. Who knows.
Kenyon Martin is available if he wants to be. However, he's not a team guy.
Several stars have actually been taking pay cuts. Pierce and Nowitski for example.
Joe Johnson getting 119million. He's not even the best player on that team. Marvin Williams and Al Horford should get out of Atlanta asap!
When it's all said and done, it will be fun to see who's where.
