Official Offseason News and Rumors

[LAD]

I'm pretty sure your decision has little in common in mindset with his decision.

I'm assuming you are working because you need money, job stability, living stability, etc.

James doesn't.
He couldn't spend what he has in 10 lifetimes. He can pick and choose any city that he wants to live in or play for.


He knows what each team can offer now, and he's putting trust into what they will say they will do in the future.

What is there to think about?

Parsons offer sheet was signed, just hasn't been delivered to the Rockets yet.

 

[DJ Fieri]

LAD, the new FN sucks. Worse than the old one, if that's possible.

SportsHoopla is my permanent new home.

Meanwhile... Eddie Sefko is reporting that the Mavs and Rockets are discussing a possible trade&sign scenario for Parsons. Signed offer sheet has not been submitted yet. So - 72 hour clock has not started.

You know how I know its going to be Cleveland. if it were the Heat, he knows our roster has no one on it, he would have told riley way in advance so that we can get the best possible players on it before they all signed elsewhere. Cleveland already has a roster in place.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Somebody said James is announcing tonight.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I won't dog him at all. Ive made that perfectly clear.

I 100% believe in the FA process.

My impatience is because:

1. I believe the decision is made. If not, I stand corrected.
Do you think if it is made that there is any reason to stall?

2. I care about the Heat waaaayyyy more than LBJ, so by him stalling, he's hurting Rileys chance to build the best roster that he can if he knows what he's dealing with.


3. He owes fans, or the Heat nothing, but he owes Bosh the courtesy of letting him know what he's going to do.

1. I still have no clue, signs point to Cleveland but I can't be sold.

3. I agree, the main reason he needs to make this decison is for Bosh's sake, I have no doubt that Miami can still grt players though. Most players are waiting

Alerting cops makes me think he won't choose Cleveland and those fools will be even worse than in 2010.

 

[Shanemansj13]

3 first rounders? Thorton, zeller and a future first was the deal I thought

Zeller, Jack, and future first

 

[DJ Fieri]

Cops to LeBron's house?

Or it could mean they don't want people going to his house and celebrating

 

[Hambombs]

Cops to LeBron's house?

Yes

I think I have done that as well tlance. Re-read some of my earlier posts. I state clearly that people are generating a frenzy over this that creates an event that takes on a life of its own and Lebron does his part to keep all going because as has bee stated he loves the attention.

The behavior I am referring to gordontrue is the flying to Las Vegas to have a meeting that could have been held in Miami then catching a pick-up game for what reason noone knows and then getting on a plane to go watch soccer, all the while there are people who are putting their lives on hold while this guy makes up his mind on HIS future, yada, yada, yada.

Just a disjointed series of events that have little connection to the task at hand instead of stating in a concise statement: "Look I am taking an extended period of time to make a decision so don't call me or text me or ask me any more quesions until such and such a date: would have been better appropriate behavior that befits a player of his stature and professional profile.

The whole affair reminds me of an individual that wants the perks and benefits that come with being the so-called best player in the world but then shirking the not-so fun stuff like being cognizant of other people's lives, being organized, professional, and forthright befitting of a professional basketball player in today's NBA.

Sort of like how Jim Buss behaves. A billionaire who dresses like a 13 year petulant boy and then trys to parlay himself off as a masterful techtician of basketball and as an owner of a franchise. It is simply pathetic to watch.

Someone may have already corrected you on this,

but you do realize that he is running a camp in Vegas and attending a Nike event in Brazil. It is not like he is on vacation right now. (Yes I realize he was on vacation last week).

So now, because he has not made a statement that places a deadline on his own decision he is behaving badly?

Bath police to increase patrols around LBJ's home after 3 p. when annoucement is expected "tonight." #KingJames

3pm?

 

[avalon2423]

my stomach is hurting again. The reports are pulling us back and forth. Cops at his house? why?

Zeller, Jack, and future first

Can you still consider Jack as a first round pick when he was drafted 10 years ago? This makes it sound like he is a prospect or something.

I know right, its not like they drafted him
