Please provide more refutable information on this then get back with me.

In 2010, he took 15M less on his contract along with Bosh and James. In 2014, he took less to re-sign James after exercising his ETO.

......okay, I smell smoke.

Paul opted into his contract.

Houston only has him for this year?
So would the Rockets be in play for Lebron? I know we would, but I'm soo against being in play for Lebron WITH the bannana boat team

West wasn't in yesterday's meeting with CP and the Clipps?
He did say the right decision isn't always the popular one.

He must have wanted to tear it down.

If CP and Harden can't play together......Harden and James would be a nightmare.

Can't see how if they have to pay everyone.

I say Lakers.

Do we have any Rockets fans here?

If so...

Congrats!!

Cp3 is still a boss.

Should be fun to watch these two try to topple the Warriors.

They need a bit more help.

He took less in 6 years because Miami wouldn't have room to sign anyone else. He wanted titles, he got it. He still had a 6-year $100 million contract.

The year Lebron left, Wade's agent (who's also Bosh's agent) got Bosh the max. Leaving little left for Wade. That sounds like a problem that he should've handled, not Riley.

Again Wade, with his upcoming salary will have made over $200 million in a 13/14 year career. Spare me with the underpaid bullshit.

Poor Cavs fans, already a pretty bad group (not so much around here).

Over at RealGM they all got so frustrated if you didn't worship the ground that LeBron walks on or tell them they're the best team in the league constantly, that they had to go created their own forum.

Is he not a max contract quality player? Did he not get paid less than that? Exactly my point.

How was anyone questioning who'd run point? Hardcan is not a PG. He broke the turnover record as a SG then when he went to PG full time this year, he shattered that record.

Dude, they are all gonna be free at the sametime...lmfao

You called this shit.

Interesting.

If George ends up going to Boston and signing an extension, I would think the Clippers could emerge as LeBron favorites. If they can sell everything This summer, they might get a high lotto pick too.

Only problem is that CP3 is expected to sign an extension with the Rockets. That was part of the report. He would likely be the one left out, and IMO the most important piece LBJ would need of the 4 banana boaters.

It's the context in which you apply that. At this point, we can make the same case for Durant, Curry, etc...

If that was your only point, then congrats. You stated the fucking obvious.

The context is that everyone piled on him for opting in for $24M now. He has every right to, especially after being taking advantage of by Bosh and James.

Lebron will never go to the Clippers, he doesnt want to go to the organization. I have heard this for awhile now.

Why would he leave Cleveland? There is no reason to leave now, zero reason lol

Well, the top two MVP finishers both shattered the old TO record. Apparently TOs don't matter anymore.

Never said I had a problem with him opting in. Please quote me where I said that.

I have a problem with him opting into his contract then subsequently requesting a buyout.
