I guess all four of them are going to discuss their free agency together. Are they all going to take pay cuts so they can all play on the same team?

I've always wondered why players don't do that if they are really in it to win.

My opinion:

Lebron and Bosh sign the same place

Wade and Johnson might sign the same place

Pretty smart idea. I think 2 of them sign with the same team and the other 2 stay with their current teams although I have no idea which ones it will be thats just my theory.

Exactly. They all could sign for 10 million a year for three years and could easily win three NBA titles. But who want to take that big of a pay cut for a ring?

Wade gets paired up with either Bosh or Amar'e in Miami.

If Miami is unable to reel in two max stars their plan is fucked.

LeBron stays in Cleveland.

Johnson probably gets a max offer from NYK after their plans are a failure of luring Bosh/LeBron/Wade.

The Knicks giving Johnson a max contract would fit right in with what they have done the past 10 years.

Well their going to have to.

I've stated they would give him a max deal as he is a 2nd tier star and guys like LeBron/Wade/Bosh will not be available.

Bottomline, if they all played together, I think the championships would be a little tarnished and it would really hurt the game of basketball.

LOL! Seriously? How would they be tarnished and hurt the game of basketball? I'd say it would be the opposite. People always say two big name superstars can't coexist on a team just think of having 3 1/2 on the same one and them winning multiple championships. And it would be great for the game showing that the players would care more about winning than money.

They're not all playing together, in fact only two of them may.

Secondly, it's being reported that Wade has told LeBron to stay AWAY from Chicago, due to the shady ownership which ran PHil and MJ out of town.

Yeah I dont think anyone really believes they all are going to play together but it would be pretty awesome if they did. Its pretty crazy that Wade is doing that still I didn't think LeBron would go to Chicago in the first place but now I really doubt he does. If Chicago could get Bosh and Johnson they'd still have a pretty sweet team.

There's a debate. It would be the most talent ever assembled on one team.

Yeah I knew that but I didn't think he was trying to sway the others to not go there as well although I can understand why he would.

So can someone explain to me why Mark Cuban gets fined for "tampering" when he talked about where Lebron might go but these 4 guys can get together to come up with a plan for where they want to go.

These guys = Players
