Cole Miner Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I'm not sure I would trade at least four years of Wiggins for one of Kevin Love. Lebron or no, there is literally zero chance of that dude staying in Cleveland. There was a story a week ago somewhere that he already claimed he would stay. If LeBron goes back and plays for that shit head owner again after everything that went down anything is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 We don't know how much of Nick's inheritance Gilbert is offering LeBron to return to Cleveland, though. I need numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I think the Bucks should offer him the veteran minimum, a condo on the Milwaukee waterfront and 89% ownership stake in the team. Would that get him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_MJ_ Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Lebron would last until his first bad game in NY, then the media and fans would tear into him, and he'd turn into basketball's A-Rod. I think you have completely forgotten the first year the Heat were together. I'm willing to bet that no NBA team (NY Knicks included) has had that level of daily media coverage, and it was on a national level. Also, the coverage definitely was not all puff and positive pieces to say the least. Edited July 9, 2014 by _MJ_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSC Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 You realize you're condemning him for actions he hasn't taken yet and has no possibility of controlling. I'm ok with this. It beats staring at the Lakers roster, reports of Melo staying in New York and crying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 LeBron should have another one-hour "The Decision" broadcast on ESPN that closes with LeBron saying "fuck Cleveland." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgundy LaRue Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 LeBron should have another one-hour "The Decision" broadcast on ESPN that closes with LeBron saying "fuck Cleveland." Gotta admit, LeBron hiring a choir to sing "Cleveland Sucks" as he carries a lounge chair across South Beach would make me laugh too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomAct Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 If they get Bosh, they won't match. If they DO match, they likely can't offer Bosh the max. Very interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlfredoE Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Here's LATimes cap guru take on Rockets situation. Eric Pincus @EricPincus Rockets need to officially trade Asik and Lin - then get a FA (like Bosh) to sign - then match on Parsons - in 3 days of offer sheet We all know Morey doesn't sleep, so he can probably pull this off, but some of this (Bosh & Melo) is out of his hands. Still very interesting if Lebron & Melo keep everything in the same holding pattern for a few days. Could come down to the wire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomAct Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 The only way anyone was prying him from Houston was to overpay. I'm not THRILLED with the terms, BUT I think Parsons has huge upside. We'll also still have tons of cap next season. I'm just over here like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlfredoE Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Seeing several NBA people tweeting that Lebron's heading back to Cleveland. I'll wait until Woj breaks the news. Well, its Chris Sheridan, so who knows...maybe wait a bit. Chris Sheridan @sheridanhoops 2m LeBron James is returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers, a source tells http://sheridanhoops.com . @KingJames #LeBronToClev http://www.sheridanhoops.com/2014/07/09/sheridans-top-25-free-agents-july-9-edition/ … Edited July 9, 2014 by AlfredoE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Rumblings of moving trucks outside of Bron's home in Miami. If he leaves, I'm fairly certain Bosh heads to Houston. If that happens, who becomes the favorite in the East? Rebuilding Cleveland? Charlotte, or Chicago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zimbra Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 So Kobe is holding a press conference that amounts to "My summer's pretty good. You?" I think he's jealous of the attention the free agents are getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_MJ_ Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) No numbers hate thrown my way with Parsons. I usually don't get into "who is a max player?" discussions because I always say you're max player if someone is willing to pay you max player money. Where you rate on the talent scale compared to other max players is another question. As for Lebron, I wish he could return to Cleveland without Dan Gilbert benefiting. That is the only angle of this that makes me double take because there's something distasteful about that dude. Everything else is gravy.

I think he's jealous of the attention the free agents are getting. Its his summer camp. They have to fill time on TWC Sportsnet. I missed this Woj tweet when he was mentioning the Parsons-Mavs offer sheet. Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA Chandler Parsons will make $5 million more than Dirk Nowitzki, who coincidentally, has a standing offer for a max deal with the Rockets. That's interesting and hilarious since Dirk's always made it known he wouldn't leave the Mavs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Everyone else is tweeting that LeBron has not yet made a decision.
