I don't really care if they were here then, just wondering how they handled the departure.

They all left and swore their allegiance to other teams, mainly the Heat and claimed to be lifelong fans.

The true Heat fans stuck around after lebron left Florida.

Cavs have DEFINITELY tanked and it worked out phenomenally! If I was the Lakers i wouldnt win another game this season. When the difference is losing 2 first rounders- or keeping 2 first rounders- i think the questions is very easy. I cant remember a time where stakes have been higher for a lotto team.

Remember when GOlden State tanked to keep the pick that became Harrison Barnes? it happens all the time in t he league. No team is immune.


Harrison Barnes > Anthony Bennett

Is this true of those 4 dudes specifically? Some Cavs fans burned jerseys and cursed LeBron forever instead of switching teams. Then those same fans had to sheepishly welcome him back...

It would depend on whether or not the Lakers keep the pick. The top 3 players in the draft are all PG's.

I could see them trading the top 3 and the late 1st round pick we got from Houston for a player....think Magic will try and trade for a superstar or semi superstar.

Not bad. Gotta do some yard work later. Trying to come up with an excuse to not do it, but coming up empty so far. lol

How are you?

As good as can be expected.....it's an hour to hour and day to day thing. First time in 3 weeks I haven't spent the weekend in the desert in La Quinta. My mom's celebration of life on the 26th is going to be rough.

The people at my work have been great.

I can't believe you fuckers are ignoring the Suns 2 game winning streak.

Are the Suns better now that they have benched veteran Tyson Chandler? I didn't think that would be the case, but maybe increased playing time for Len and Alan Williams have given the Suns a spark. The Suns play at a fast pace, and perhaps Chandler slowed them down.

I had to look up where he is now - Turkey!!!

You know it's pretty bad when you get waived by the Brooklyn Nets!!!

Pretty much the end of NBA road when the Nets don't even want him.

Swappy P > LeBron :surprised:
if you are trying to tank i totally agree ;)

as for the Defending Champs....at it again tonight in Miami....though- it seems iffy that LeBron and or KI will play.....

id sit them both...Kyrie went for 43 last night, LeBron 38.....they have a ton of games coming up- play Miami again Monday....plus- as far as road teams go- i wouldnt feel bad at all if the Heat fans didnt get to see Lebron and or Kyrie. lol

That's lame if LeBron sits in Miami. It'll look like he's scared of the Heat. You better text Coach Lue & make sure The Balding One plays. The Cavs don't win this game the rest of the regular season could fall apart for them.
