Of course, as far as winning goes, the Heat don't really have anything else apart from those 3 for the moment, so they may not actually win anything this coming season.

Fisher stays in LA
Haslem Stays in Miami
Splitter to Spurs
Farmar to Nets
Any others you feel like mentioning, talking about.
And I'm wondering what the Raptors are going to look like when the season starts.
Barbosa for Turkoglu is great, but...it makes Jose more useful than Jack. Yet Jose goes for Diaw and Chandler >_>

And so far, Ebanks and Caracter are looking like steals for the Lakers in the Summer League. I only watched one game (which the Lakers lost badly by like 20), but these two guys are looking solid. It's hard to tell how they'll do during the season since this is... well... summer league, but I'm looking for these two guys to replace Walton and Powell in the future.
Personally, I'm not feeling the whole Turkoglu to the Suns thing. Hedo was complaining about not handling the ball enough in Toronto. He's definitely not going to be handling the ball in Phoenix with Nash still on the team, and Hedo needs the ball in his hands to be effective. I don't really think he plays off the ball that well. However, in terms of pure quality, I think Hedo was a steal for Barbosa.
Also, I think Bosh leaving Toronto is addition by subtraction. Now players like Sonny Weems, Demar Derozan, and Antoine Wright can have the chance to perform at high levels (or at least higher than with Bosh). I think Ed Davis was a pretty good pick for them as well.
But seriously, I'm really feeling the Bulls right now. If they can build some chemistry during the season and possibly add/trade for a few more pieces in the offseason, they can make a run in the much improved East. Here's for DRose 1st Team All NBA.

And yeah, Bosh going gives some players more, but we have backlogs in SG (you just mentioned 3 SG/Swingmen xD) and slightly in PF, which counteracts it. And Wright is an unrestricted FA, not sure if he's getting resigned.
Bulls are looking good right now, and they seem to have good spirit. Maybe if Deng stays fit for a whole season, it'd help. Boozer and Noah are a pretty strong frontcourt. Rose is huge, but I don't think he'll take 1st team this year. Paul (if fit) or Williams are more likely, but we'll have to wait and see the season unfold.

And yeah, Toronto does indeed have a backlog in its backcourt, especially after adding Barbosa. I'm thinking they'll make some trades to give some help in the frontcourt. I'm not sure if the trade went down, but I was hearing they were also going to get Boris Diaw and Tyson Chandler. That would definitely boost that frontcourt.

ATM I'm looking for a new team to like. Almost all of the west side teams, the Celtics, the Magic, and the Heat are not options.

However, if you're really a fan, then you'll stick with the Cavs. There's no reason to desert them because they won't be winning a lot anymore. That's actually what a true fan does. Bandwagon fans only like them when they're winning.

But yeah, stick with the Cavs.

I mentioned it earlier, Jordan is having second thoughts on the trade, so I'm not too sure. But it'd leave us with 3-4 PFs and 2 Cs, which isn't too bad, seeing as Amir is foul-prone.

The Cavaliers beat the Celtics, then lost it twice to two really dumb teams that we should have beaten.
Come on, the Raptors and the KINGS? We should be 3-0 right now.
Yeah, we = Cavaliers/Cleveland fans.

Yeah, Celtics beat the Heat but couldn't beat Cleveland. Maybe they don't need Lebron?
Remember Bobryk is a Celtics fan.

I never did understand Cleveland... that is, I don't understand why it happens, I understand that it happens and that it is bound to happen, but I don't understand why Cleveland.

BACK TO BASKETBALL, the Cavs are 3-3. What's good, WE DON'T COMPLETELY SUCK. ONLY SOMEWHAT.
Although IMO we should be 4-2, 5-1 at best. I can understand losing to the Hawks, but losing to the Kings? WTF? That shoulda been a win. The other team, whatever team that was that I can't remember, was decent enough that I won't cry that we lost, but still could have been a win...
