Wed, 18 Feb 2009 19:52:50 -0500

Well it looks like the Amare rumors are dead, which would also kill any Bosh deal since that was a three-way deal involving Amare as well. We can still hold out hope that it's not dead, but it seems highly unlikely at this point. But don't hang your heads! Paxson won't stand pat this time, as it appears he is going after the much-coveted Brian Cardinal of the Minnesota Timberwolves: [S]ources say the Wolves and Bulls are discussing Hinrich and Sefolosha for Collins and Brian C...

Even in this crummy economy, with ticket sales about to drop through the basement, the Cavs can't blow their LeBron Window for one reason: If they win a title, he might stay and save professional basketball in Cleveland. Money is no object. They don't care. And given that they have $20 million worth of expiring contracts (Wally ...
