Tyronn Lue close to signing with Miami

Tyronn Lue said before Sunday's Zo's Summer Groove that he is scheduled for a 5:30 a.m. Monday physical with the Heat, and could sign thereafter. The Heat, however, later said nothing is imminent, with no signing planned for Monday.

Lue also said he would be receptive to working off the Heat's $1.9 million lower-level exception, which is all the Heat has available to offer from a salary-cap perspective. -- South Florida Sun-Sentinel

We need an "official" thread for "close to" signings, and one for actual signings.

Anthony Johnson signs with Orlando:

"http://www.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/53593/20080715/magic_sign_anthony_johnson/#"

I wonder why we didn't make an offer to him.

The Magic were also trying to sign Jason Williams, i wonder if Danny is still interested in making him an offer...
