LeBron opting out!

[kkp2420]

Lebron James' agent, Rich Paul, has informed the Miami Heat that James will exercise his early termination option and become an unrestricted free agent on July 1. Where do you think he will end up, if he decides to leave the Heat?

LBJ was always going to opt out after this season.

Please don't go to the Clippers... I like rooting for them when they aren't playing the Cavs.

Why am I hearing Bosh and Wade may opt out and the Big 3 stay together? What is the incentive there, because you are just moving cities at this point. Would they really gain that much flexibility with a new team if they all signed new contracts? The NBA cap has long confused me, so that's why I am wondering about that.

They can opt out and all 3 would stay in Miami. Incentive is to create more money for Pat to get Kyle Lowry, Melo or whatever it is LeBron wants.

Bosh and Wade are definitely not leaving Miami.

So they are essentially maneuvering for more cap space......and there is nothing the NBA can/will/cares to do about it?

why would the league respond? If anything, it would be the Union unhappy the players are not getting their max value.

It's what they did 4 years ago so they could play together.

You may see it also with Melo depending on where he goes.

I'd call that collusion against the cap, but that's just me. For the life of me, I can't wrap my head around the NBA.

not sure that's something punishable. I know that as far as collusion involving teams and players under contract to other teams, that's something with a rule on the books. However, players can talk to other players and it's allowed.

for example, he hasn't but if Derrick Rose wanted to, he could speak with Kevin Love about coming to Chicago and there are no rules against it.

All 3 should have birds rights which is why they decided to have the opt out clause after year 3. They can all opt out to create money for Melo and resign even above cap because of birds right which gives team the right to resign a player that has been with them for 3 years.
