Does that work within trade rules? Thought contracts had to match within 75%.....

Porter is one of the more overpaid players in the league, not a good contract.

I would not say he is past his prime, but he isn't a leader and he has bad knees that will be a huge factor by the time his current mega contract is up.

terrible contract- Porter

but at least it would mean the Pelicans wouldnt have to give up much of anything to get him.

The Cavs are gonna fall apart w/o JR's leadership.

it just cracks me up he calls out the Cavs for tanking- when he has been TERRIBLE the last 2 years. His shooting has been atrocious- even with LeBron on the team.

Getting rid of Jr actually HELPS the team win. He is delusional.

I hope JR shows up to the game tonight drunk wearing his Knicks jersey. Sitting right behind the Cavs bench heckling them the entire time.

I was at Barnes and Noble in Beachwood last night (well, Woodmere actually), getting my nerd encylocpedia (George R. R. Martin's Fire and Blood- a History of House Targareyen), and the lady behind the counter said that JR was coming into Barnes and Noble to sign autographs this weekend--- and i told her that we just let him go a couple hours ago . lol

she was like...wow i wonder if he is still gonna come in!

The unforgettable night Cavs fans chanted, 'Akron hates you' at LeBron James

Just wow....lol

I remember that night- Iwas not there- but it was something that will likely never be repeated

So many things amplified the situation

-Obviously Lebron being from the area

-How he left

-The Letter

-Cleveland sports history and the passion of the fan base

So many things just built that up. It was an environment that will probably never be replicated in pro sports.

The crowd was actually chanting "Akron Hates You" as loud as any cheer that has ever gone up in that building.

Lebron is a fucking embarrassment for going back to Cleveland and getting Gilbert a title.

Raptors won last night, was close though. I also get the feeling not to sleep on the Magic this year. They're legit to make the playoffs IMO.
