free agent picks

The NBA champions for the next decade will be decided at midnight tonight with the free agent period kicking off what is sure to be the busiest and most important day in professional basketball history. I've been reading about tomorrow for the past three years and how it will all unfold. Experts have been analyzing, overanalyzing and hyper-picking-corn-out-of-turd-overanalyzing the psychology of Lebron James over the last six months and they have been trying to read his future decision out of every single one of his comments, pieces of body language or salary-dump by another team.

I'm riveted like Howard Hughes' jet.

WIth Lebron, Bosh, Wade, Dirk, Paul Pierce, Joe Johnson, Amar'e and Carlos Boozer all poised to change squads (and Chris Paul and Carmelo both rumoured to be names that could move) I couldn't help but start a little pool at work over who was going where.

Keep in mind, Miami, the Knicks, the Bulls, the Clippers and the Nets have all been holding out for 2010, in the hopes to make themselves instant champs by snagging a few of these guys.

My picks:

Lebron - Chicago

Bosh - Chicago

Wade - Miami

Dirk - Phoenix

Amar'e - New York Knicks

Joe Johnson - New York Knicks

Boozer - Miami

Pierce - LAClippers (not going to happen, but what the hell?)

Thoughts?
