If LeBron leaves, the Cavs would more than likely go ahead and max IT.

Not sure IT would accept it

What if the Cavs throw in lifetime passes to the Rock n Roll HOF to sweeten the deal?

Ugh...watching OTL about the Olympics Gymnastics Team Dr.

This was the first Olympics that I watched with my girls where they were old enough to get what it means.

They were so happy seeing our girls win and now it's all been tainted.

I am disgusted by peoples need to win at any cost.

I'm not just talking about the Olympic Committee that shielded this ********* either.

I'm talking about the parents who knew and took a financial settlement to remain silent as well.

They are not to blame for what happened to their daughters. But, they are to blame for every other girl that this monster abused after. They could have mad it stop.

I swear to GOD.

I am going to jail for murder, happily, if someone did this to my daughters.

yiiiikkkkeeeessss...

i'll say it again. you my bro, but your mind is a scary place to be...

I wouldn't do that. He's a good player but he's always gonna be a defensive liability. And @ 28 or 29 I don't think he's worth a max deal.

Probably not but they are going to be in a bad spot and franchises do things like that all the time.

It's not something I'm proud of.

That's the problem the Cavs have. For them to even have a shot, they are going to have to deal that pick. Which they would do if they knew Lebron was coming back. But he won't commit to it.

So they have to decide if it's worth trading that pick in the hopes that it will be enough to get them a title and for Lebron to stay.

All the while knowing that if they don't win, he's gone and they traded away the draft pick that could have been their player to build around for the future.

All goes back to my theory on LeBron's dual motives for returning.

1 is to win for Cleveland and restore his image.
2 is to cripple Cleveland's future and make it look like it is 100% Gilbert's fault.

Ready for the Cavs-W's.....

Interesting how early in the game, the Cavs have exploited

Yeah, we all know that we've seen this stuff, about this same time of year, every season since he's been in Cleveland and probably a couple in Miami and they've always figured it out and gotten to the finals.
But a lot of folks are saying this year feels different and this may be the year that they don't get it worked out. The stuff from other players saying they are having doubts seems new too.

The last couple of years, the Cavs went through a lot of stuff in mid-season. Firing Blatt. Lebron sitting out 10 days. Bad D last year -- and bad record in Jan.

The main concern is that the Cavs think they can flip a switch and walk through the East. It has worked the last couple of years -- but we'll see.

How Cavs, Spurs handled trade demands by stars is worlds apart

Interesting thought worth considering, but kind of an unfair assumption in my opinion, It might just be that Aldridge and Kyrie responded differently, not that the Cavs and Spurs handled things differently. There were several reports that the Cavs tried to talk to him and work things out but he just wasn't interested in dialogue.

How many Rockets do you think will get suspended for the Minny game?

Wojo said Blake should get it for bumping Pringles and Ariza, Paul should get smacked down because Matt Barnes got a game for similar.

But, what about Harden, Capela?

Shit, will the Rox have enough players against the Wolves?

Ball boys go for 60 combined and are up big.

So, Melo goes for this...lol

if true, i gotta hand it to him. as much i dislike the s.o.b. that'd be as devious as it can get...

i wouldn't have taken him to be that smart...
