Milwaukee and Miami have to be interested in Paul as well. Milwaukee is desperate and Miami just got a taste of the finals and will want more, especially if the injury to Dragic is going to be a career defining one.

Milwaukee has to give up a lot to bring Paul in since they are at the cap. Basically would have to give up Bledsoe, Lopez and Hill. 3 of their top 5 contracts. That's a lot of depth.. especially Lopez to give away.
Philly makes sense too.. and have either Horford or Harris' contract to move with picks. They are the team to watch for to make a big move.

Yeah Philly and Milwaukee should be strong contenders for Paul. OKC might be able to get a small bidding war started.

Bidding war ? You would have to match his 38 million dollar contract ..

Chris Bosh is nominated for HOF class again . He acted surprised when getting the word this year ? Wasn't he saying he should have been inducted last year ? .. I don't know about everyone else but as a franchise player he didn't get a team out of the 1st round in the East . He was the 3rd best player on a championship team ( although Ray Allen was also on that championship team ) . He was a great player but only once achieved 2nd all NBA team . Am I just a bitter Raptor fan but I just think he was a great player but not a HOF .

11 x Allstar .. He did play in the East . How many all stars has DeRozan got since going to the West? Shouldn't how many " all NBA " be more important to the resume then all stars .. Bosh didn't have longevity ( career stats ) and when was he ever the top 2 player at his position in the league in a given year . He had a zero point game in the playoffs in his Prime .

1. 6x all star in the "weak" Eastern Conference.
2. Named an All NBA player once.
3. Do we ever talk about him as a top 2 PG in the game? i know it's always Steph or Paul or Steph or Russ or Steph or Dame. Lowry is/was never in this conversation.
4. I don't remember Bosh's zero point playoff game but I remember Game 1 against Orlando.
Again, if you don't think Bosh is a hall of famer or that the bar is too low(i disagree) then you don't think Lowry is a hall of famer?

Bosh is a HOF 1000%. He would have been a fringe HOF if he just stayed in Toronto putting up monster stats on bad teams. He would have been a fringe HOF if his whole career was 3rd fiddle to a contender. But because of both combined, the early years as a stat stuffer and go to guy, then the 2nd half as a 3rd banana on 2x champ 4x finalist, it makes him a bonafide HOFer9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

I'd love to see the GROAT represent the purple dino's in the Hall proudly one day, because consistency, because intangibles, because champion. And I'll bang that drum as long as Mitch Richmond's ass has a plaque up in there.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

You hope he doesn't get in why? It ain't Raps fans job to hold up the bar for HOF. We never had an inductee yet. Vince Carter spent 6 out of 22 years here way back when, he's not our guy.
