My first thought is that Lebron can't officially opt out until July 1st.. after draft night.

Which makes me think there will be very limited draft night action, as the major players will be either trying to land Lebron, or waiting to see where Lebron goes before making any big moves.

Everyone says Melo and Lebron want to play together.. but doesn't it make way more sense for Lebron to team up with Love?  Seeing as they compliment each other much better.

My hope is that Love isn't connected to the super team thing, and he can still be traded draft night to us, otherwise, nothing will happen until Lebron makes his choice essentially, right?

Quick thoughts:

- I'm not sure that LeBron and Love complement each other more than Melo and LeBron.

- Whether or not James has 'officially' opted out is largely irrelevant.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Ok it's kind of irrelevant, but it illustrates my point.  The dust on Lebron James wont be settled until after draft night, which might prevent our ability to make "fire works".

Meh. I'd wager a bunch of money on James staying in Miami -- I'm almost certain he's opting out in order to give them more flexibility.
