Series Thread: 2nd Round: Cleveland Cavs vs Toronto Raptors

Mojitos are Cuban though, not Mexican.

Close enough.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

I just had 7 mojitos over a 2-hour time span. Cinco de Mayo was a success.

Here's hoping the safe word isn't more than four syllables.

Close enough.

Then why keep playing?

Then why keep playing?

as soon as he won that won last year- it was like a weight off his shoulders...of course it was the one that meant the most to him....now its all gravy. he has cemented his legacy.

now- its like i have been saying- you just watch him play- and he has never been more calm, composed, a better leader- smarter, more prepared......this is without a doubt the best version of lebron james that is the hardest to beat 4 times out of 7- there is NO question about that.

And yet. Come June, it's over.

actually for the Warriors its all over come june--- this is the best chance they will have for years to come since the cap is going to operate to break up a large part of the team...if they dont get it done this year- it could get real ugly.

Cavs core is signed up and ready to go for a long time- same cant be said for the Golden Showers.

Only players leaving next year are Livingston and Clark.

I know you need to try to throw shade because you know what's coming, but it ain't working.

Curry, KD, Pachulia, Iggy, Clark, Livingsto, McGhee and West are all unrestricted FA's. Not sure they csn sign all of them. Curry will finally be getting a huge pay day

Curry, KD, Pachulia, Iggy

Didnt get to finish my sentence.

If you feel James is at his best, then it should be Cavs best chance, not Warriors.

Maybe Iggy.

I doubt it would improve any

if they decide to sign Durant they cant sign anyone else

they dont have Durants Bird Rights. They have to renounce EVERYONE besides the other Big 3 to get under the cap enough to sign Durant.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Maybe Iggy.

they have to renounce his bird rights and his cap hold. you think hes coming back for the vet. min? or the mini mid level?

believe me- id love to think that the Cavs had a chance to convince D Will to stay next year for that--- but im not an idiot- and Iggy will have more value than Dwill.

 

[msgkings322]

Maybe Iggy.

True but the word is he's willing to take less to stay, he has the perfect role and apparently has a ton of Bay Area based investments.

Oh they will lose a couple bench guys but the core 4 are coming back. Sorry not sorry.
