Once LeBron James announced to the world that he was returning to the Cleveland
Cavaliers, the dam that had been holding back high-profile free-agent moves
finally broke. But the resulting flood hasn't quite flowed in the direction we
figured. Once James' decision was made public, it was all but assumed now-former
teammate Chris Bosh would take up the Houston Rockets' max offer to join Dwight
Howard and James Harden.
Nope. Bosh surprised many by agreeing to a
five-year, $118 million deal to remain in Miami.
You just don't get over
losing a player like James easily, as fans in Cleveland circa 2010 can surely
attest. Nevertheless, even after agreeing to contracts with McRoberts and
Granger, Heat president Pat Riley still has about $15. 8 million of cap space
with which to work, per my colleague Kevin Pelton. James is joining a young team
in Cleveland, while the limbo surrounding Carmelo Anthony means another
powerhouse might or might not be forming in Chicago.
