LOL.

It is smart.

LeBron is a guy that takes great care of his body. All the food available is sporting event concessions is low quality junk food.

Not about money, it is about avoiding eating crap.

That is part of the reason LeBron is still playing at such a high level at his age. You think Tom Brady is getting a hot dog from the concession stand?

Definitely true. But seeing someone who could buy the building he's watching the game in, eating snacks out of a ziploc baggy like a little kid whose Mom just handed him a baggy of Cheerios is both funny and kind of refreshing.

That was exactly my thought process......LOL.

See my post.

I would bet anything it isn’t about the money.

He has invested millions of dollars on training and keeping fit.

Yep, you don't get to Lebron and Bradys age still performing at an All Star level without being very particular about everything you're putting into your body.

How many times do the Cavs have to be the jilted girlfriend? Have some pride.

Not to mention they getting LeBron with a walker by the time he'd return.....LOL.

You are the one who sounds like the jilted GF. I just offered the fact that Lebron likely wants to come back from what was reported on ESPN and you cried about it for hundreds of posts lol

I never said i personally wanted him back. I am sure it would likely be split 50/50 amongst fans if you asked them. Would i take him back if it helped the team win and we got him for free...Yes, what team wouldn't?

My Sixers need to hire this man to the front office pronto




(Technically inaccurate but I really just wanted an excuse to use this)


Hat tip for @msgkings322 for introducing me to this site. Blame him when I start overusing these…

The current Lakers FO has a title more recently than the Cavs do.

You're bragging about that? Oh hell no, too funny.

How the mighty Lakers have fallen for you to have to resort to saying their FO has more titles than the Cavs.

Maybe next you'll brag about this Lakers team having more rings than the Cavs?

That takes a ton of will power. I think I am in decent shape but it’s extremely difficult to resist. I’m sure he isn’t perfect and the thing is if he does cheat he can burn it off in no time unlike someone with a desk job. Makes it tougher. I had Whataburger last night, tried to go healthier with no fries and I don’t regret it one bit. It was amazing lol

They opened a Whataburger here and the lines are crazy long, like In N Out.

And it's just okay. Not worth the wait.

Things got contentious the first time he left.

The second wasn’t even a blip on the radar compared to that.

If LeBron was willing to forgive Gilbert and return after the letter, no doubt he would be willing today.

Question is will Cleveland have the cap space, will they want him, and will he have better options?
as I think wiggy mentioned per windy we'll have a better idea when we see what happens with Sexton and Levert. Do nothing with either to add salary to the 23-24 team then I guess could mean we will make a run at him. I don't see that happening, though, but who knows? Then it's would he sign for the MLE? Not so sure he would....oh, and will Gilbert want him back (agree not so contentious the 2nd time he left).

And yet, there he is...:D

Interesting game for the Blunder last night, though...
I can see both side of that:
One side: what’s to be gained playing against future G leaguers so why risk injury.
Other side: could be a big shot of confidence plus because of a guy with game like Giddy whose upside is a dude who can bring others along and set other guys up with his game, you get a better eval on the other guys that are playing. Also, you take a little bit of pressure to do everything off of the shoulders of Chet.

But in terms of talent and developed game, the kid is light years better than what he sees each game in summer league.
