Anybody know which teams can afford max salaries and how many? And with the Heat is it that they could have Wade, Lebron, and Bosh, or just resign Wade and sign Lebron?

No one can afford more than two...NYK/CHI for sure, I'm pretty sure Miami can, but not 100% positive.

I was hoping he would go to the Wolves, I was already planning on PCing him, but Wolves would be better. Would Philly take Wall, or would they let him slip to Wolves or farther if Wizards pass? Wizards take Turner, Philly takes Johnson/Favors, Nets take Johnson/Favors, then the Wolves could probably take the best offer for their pick to a team that wants Wall

#1 - Washington is still going to take Wall. Hinrich isn't a full time starter in Washington anymore then he was in Chicago with Rose. All this means is Arenas is definitely getting traded for scrap players to someone that will take him. Wall with Hinrich backing him up
#2 - This makes Chicago MUCH more attractive then Miami - if Miami signed 2 max players they have no other players on their roster. None. They'd have to sign all league minimum guys. The Bulls all of a sudden could have a starting roster of Rose/Joe Johnson/LeBron/Noah/Gibson and still have Deng on the bench.
#3 - I'm still not sure #2 happens though because it's still alot of egos that want the ball all the time.

I think it's a game changer for the Bulls....even with Rose/Noah, I never figured that was enough for LeBron to leave....but now that they can add a 2nd max contract, it's definitley gonna make him look real hard at Chicago. It just turned into Cleveland/Chicago for LeBron now. NYK never had a chance, and the Heat just got bubbled out by Chicago.

I would be happy with this trade
Ideally, the Heat would want to trade Beasley for a player with only a partially guaranteed contract for the 2010-11 season, and there are two players with contracts of that variety who are especially appealing -- Keyon Dooling of the New Jersey Nets and Ryan Gomes of Minnesota.

HUGE POINT that people are forgetting right now...
Miami was the only team that could pair 2 max contract players with Wade. Now Chicago, Wade's hometown, can do the same.
EVERYONE is so focused on LeBron that they are forgetting this fact (for sake of argument we are calling Rose a "max" player which he is)
I'm not so convinced this team doesn't make more sense from a logical standpoint of sharing the ball (since LeBron demands the ball so much)
Rose/Wade/Deng/Noah/Bosh
Everyone assumes that Wade is sticking in Miami and having LeBron/Bosh come down there - but suddenly Chicago can offer him the same chance to play with a max free agent as well as Derrick Rose.
