     It was pretty well known that Houston was willing to part with Linn and draft pick to clear space necessary for a MAX player but now the Cavs are looking at moving J Jack and two years remaining at 6.3 million and willing to attach an asset with it. Obviously 76 ers,Jazz, Suns and other asset acquiring teams needing to meet league mandated minimums would be intrigued, especially the 2015 Miami Heat 1 st rounder if it is indeed needed to bring back The King.

    If Graivis Vazquez gets crazy offer from Bucks, I think the Raptors should look at bringing in the veteran Jack to replace Vazquez if the money is similar. They are in win now mode and would be serious contenders in the East if Lebron does in fact leave Miami. They started last season 6-13 but after trading Rudy Gay they finished 42-21 which was actually a better record than 1 st place Indiana Pacers over last 63 games. They have improving young players in Ross, JVal, Patterson,Derozan plus steady veterans Amir Johnson and Lowry. Strong bench play was there signature after the trade and would improve with J Jack. Intrigued by the two brazilians they just acquired in Bruno (6-8 with 7-7 wingspan) only 18 years old and Bebe (7-0 with 7-6) wingspan and a little more ready. It would max there cap out but there 3 bad contracts come off the books next year in Lou Williams (5.4) Landry Fields (8.5) and Chuck Hayes (6.0). Lots of cap space and potential for next year.

      If he leaves Miami I see no other spot that he lands. He is not going out west and No team has better young players than the Cavs do.

        Houston is definitely a possibility.

     I wouldnt want the Cavs to give up Wiggins for Love, but I dont think the Wolves will do a trade unless its with Wiggins. Should be finding out here really soon.

      they may include Mia or Mem’s to get rid of Jack,

      but I believe they also have a extra 2016 owed to them as well and then they have assets like Tristan, Bennett, Zeller, Karasev, and if they take back a contract like Kevin Martin they would probably even offer Waiters.

    So there a few teams with cap room. Maybe not max room, but enough you could theoretically do something about getting LeBron if he really wanted to sign. 

     

    If you were LeBron and it were about talent alone, which group do you want to play with?

     

    Wade and Bosh

    Monta, Dirk and Tyson Chandler

    Beard and D-12

    Kyrie and Wiggins

    Dragic and Bledsoe

    Millsap, Teague and Horford

    Kemba and Al Jefferson

    Rose and Noah

    MCW, Saric, Embiid and Noel (eventually)

    Kobe and Randle

     

    Id surprisingly say Dallas in the short term, possibly Atlanta, just cos the other guys don’t all need the ball all the time.  

     

    Phoenix and Chicago would be fun to watch but Dragic, Bledsoe and Rose would all be less effective handling the ball less.

     

    All in all, I cant see LeBron going anywhere but CLE or MIA.
