Lebron should avoid them like the plague. The Clippers Curse guarantees that he'll have his first major injury.


No injuries.
More fun watching him lose healthy.

Pftttt. Butler going to the Cavs now? What a JOKE!!!

Interesting how Jimmy B said that Kyrie is the player from some other team that he'd like to play with the most -- interview on ESPN. (even though NBA guys know they shouldn't say stuff like that)

Jimmy is an interesting guy. He has a few folks (including his brother) -- who he pays to ensure Jimmy sticks with his workout regiment -- get up at 5/6am every day -- work out 5-6 hours every day -- and don't do anything stupid other times. He did not do this his first ~2 years in the league -- but now he is fully committed.

Guys like D Russell, Randle, Dunn, Payton & Mudiay could learn a lot from Jimmy.

Interesting ... but not really vicious. The Cavs need to bring someone in who has credibility and immediately gets the front office under control.
 

Mecca of the “B” Team

Chauncey B-B-B- Billups doesn't fit that description.

Gilbert just gave Bron the easy out he needed.

He is the best owner in the world. His pockets are so deep he is willing to outspend everybody every year. You are are so jealous you don't have an owner like Gilbert.

LOL at anyone who ever believed this garbage.

So, according to Windy, the Cave were willing to trade Love for a lotto pick in an effort to use that pick to go after George or PG.
He suggested the other team was the Suns and the #4 pick.

Would either the Bulls or Pacers be happy with just that?
I doubt it.

Damn....it's only been a week, but I already miss the NBA.
Can't wait till November.
The off-season has been the best part of the NBA for me the last couple of years lol. But I love playing GM.

Apparently MONEY(or lack of) was the biggest factor in his decision.
I believe I heard he was making less then 2M which is very low end for the job.

Didn't the Magic just give Hammond 5 yr/20M?

@WiggyRuss was correct about 1 thing.
Time validates.
He was pretty much wrong about everything.
