Atlanta Hawks: J.J. squeezed out of the big summit?

ESPN.com reported there was a free-agent summit in Miami over the weekend
involving LeBron, D-Wade and Bosh.
Other reports say the meeting didn’t happen and others that say it couldn’t
have happened because James was in New York and Wade was in Las Vegas and
Chicago over the weekend.
Now I’m watching ESPN respond to those reports by saying that the three
players did too meet in Miami!
All of this comes after Stephen A. Smith reported that James and Bosh would
join Wade in Miami.
It’s all very confusing. But if there was a meeting in some city somewhere,
and if James and Bosh really are considering headed to Miami to play with
D-Wade (it seems to be a real possibility), the one thing missing from all of
this is Joe Johnson.
Remember, Wade had said J.J. would be included in the summit and now it turns
out he wasn’t invited (if in fact there was a meeting). What that would mean
for J.J. is that he’s not included in this free agent master plan
orchestrated by LeBron and Wade.
What it means for the Hawks is if those three guys really do end up on the
same team, that would leave more teams with top-tier cap space than there are
top-tier free agents. If the Hawks really are hoping to avoid offering J.J.
the Bird max salary of about $119 million, and there has been some resistance
to doing so, then this is not the scenario they’d want to see (and that’s
not even considering what it would mean for the balance of power in the
Eastern Conference).
Of course, all of this is assuming there really was a meeting, and the Big
Three free agents really would play for the same team. It’s not even
Thursday yet and it’s hard to know what’s true.
