Next paycheck.

I'm sure some better teams will reach out to him. I can't see Detroit being the best team that's considering him

With or without Lebron the future isn't looking to bright. From the looks of it you can't even attract FA's with Lebron (still will be determined in FA) and Magic is making himself and the organization look like a fool. I guarantee Lebron came to L.A. not just for the city and the history of the organization but bc Magic said he would do whatever it takes to win. The past drafts did not help the Lakers, bc right now their players aren't worth shit in deals and the Pelicans made that point and made Magic look like a fool.
I would say right now, the Cavs are looking better 2-3 years down the road than the Lakers if they cannot get a big time FA now or this offseason.

If it weren't for the fact I think just being in LA was his main objective I'd say he is regretting this bigtime. I have no doubt if he stays, Cavs are in thick of the title chase.

No so-called "name" guys outside Greek Freak, but that's a solid core around him.

Yeah, I like there team.

The East is gonna be fun come playoff time.

 

[Hambombs]

Matthews to Pacers.

Who will get Kanter?

I'm staying far away from him lol

Sounds like Bropez wants to go to the Dubs.

So, not there.

I'm proudly repping Clips as long as he's there.

Bropez? Isn't he still a Buck?

lebron signed that 3 year deal with a 4th year player option

by the end of year 3--- think of what the Cavs might have---- multiple top lotto picks, tons of cap space, boatloads of extra picks, some intruging young players.

LeBron/Cleveland round 3 in a couple years? LeBron will of course be nothing close to the #1 player in the league by then- but if he wanted to play 3rd option to Zion and Cedi id let him if he licked Gilbert's boots! lol

How about on a minimum deal as the 4th option with Bronny Jr. in the mix?

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Wayne Ellington considering Detroit? WHY

Well he will start lol

Maybe not.

But, he could probably start after the Bullocks trade.

always drama with LeBron

you are just never comfortable- there is always something going on- always some way LeBron tries to assert himself as the guy in charge. No one is ever comfortable- and that can be a good thing at times- but it can also be a bad thing.

LeBron has never played with so many young guys as he is in LA- its an adjustment for him

i think LeBron thought things were gonna be a lot better in LA and they would be able to pull off some moves to get him some big time talent and right now its just not looking good.

I'd say when he got here we were just as young. Kyrie and Klove still 23 and 26ish. Waiters and TT were low 20s as well I think.

Yeah, his political issues could land your ass smack dab in the middle of a terrorist act.

I'm not even joking..

 

[Black Adam]

might be worth a flyer, Magic...

 

[Mecca]

The one that beats up mascots.

Bulls are buying him out.

 

[DJ]

We added Muscala and Bullock.....

Nothing major but there rotation guys and they can both shoot the 3.....

 

[dtgold88]

Looks like the Cavs this season have been handling it well. I mean 2 1st's and 6 2nd's. Gilbert willing to take extra money for the next year in a half DEFINITELY helps. I'm not sure exactly what their plan is on who they want to trade but they are getting assets and keeping their best young core players.

Pretty much comes down to how those pingpong balls line up as to whether or not they can ever be a serious threat again (or at least in next 4-5 years).

But, yeah, they are doing everything else right in their situation.

 

[DJ]

Fultz to Orlando? They could have had Ball.

Busy as fuck at work on one of my fave days.....

He's already executive producing a tv series. He's in LA to stay.

 

[dtgold88]

if LeBron was in Cleveland and the Cavs were still in contention Love would hve been playing weeks ago. lol

they are really really milking this injury to keep him out as long as possible

If you know anyone who still goes and sits close, tell them to trip him or step on his toe.

Ahhh, Ropez.
