Nets +400
Heat +600
Clippers +1000

Dwyane Wade

Cavs +2000

Carlos Boozer

These odds allow gamblers to put their money where their mouth is, while also splashing a dose of reality into all the speculation out there.

Vegas is again shifting on LeBron, this time with the Bulls inching closer. Wade staying in Miami is as close to sure to a sure thing as you can get at -400. While Bosh, Stoudemire and Boozer still seem to be anyone's guess given how contingent they are on where LeBron lands.

We'll continue to update any changes, which are sure to come as July 1st arrives and the official recruitment begins.

Amare: Knicks should take me over Bosh

In "despite the fact that I can't see out of one eye, have already had micro-fracture surgery, but still want to market myself" news, the New York Post's Blog is reporting the Amare Stoudemire thinks he's better than Chris Bosh and he will be seriously considering New York in 2010:

CHICAGO - Here in Chicago waiting for the next wave of potential first-rounders to fill into Westin for the final media availability..

Back in New York, ESPN Radio's Brandon Tierney had Amare Stoudamire on this morning and reiterated remarks about his desire to play for Mike D'Antoni in 2010 while boasting about being better than Chris Bosh. Stoudemire told The Post similar stuff during All-Star Weekend.

When Tierney asked Stoudemire if he's better than Bosh, the Suns forward said, "Oooh man, are you kidding me? Ask Chris Bosh that question."

So that's a yes?

"No doubt about it, I'm better than Chris Bosh"

"How serious will you consider the Knicks in 2010"?

"I will be totally serious about that, I spent a lot of my childhood there, I have a connection with the state, and I also love the entire coaching staff"

" I think Coach D'Antoni's doing a phenomenal job with the Knicks, NY's a great city, I follow them closely."
