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

WAlls contract is only like 19 M this year

his monster 4 year extension does not even kick in until next year. lol

 

[WiggyRuss]

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

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.

 

[shopson67]

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.

Especially with his mad munchies, yo. His weight is going to skyrocket, lol.

Except matching salary?

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!

It would hilarious if he still shows up.

It would be more hilarious if he shows up to the wrong one

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.

he needed to or his legacy would never have been complete.

he could have never gone home to Akron unless the did what he did....he would have always been an outsider no matter how much philanthropic work he did.

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.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Took the Clipps -1 and the under 232.

Dude, you can't trust the Clippers...lol

 

[DJ Fieri]

Worked a half day.......home watching some college hoops before I make the trek to the southest part of OC before you head to Oceanside to spend Turkey Day with the family.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Dude, you can't trust the Clippers...lol

They were 10-5 playing the Dumpster Fire known as the Wizards!!!!!!

I think they are the EC version of the Kings.....they'll fight hard and just end up short.

Borderline playoff team in the EC, thinking they win 37-39 games.
