Truly fascinating...the NBA has a real life WWE story pattern going here....prodigal son returns home to play for team that lucked and sucked into consecutive #1 overall picks. Then he gets a new and younger Big 3 to surround him to try and break Cleveland's 50 year jinx. You can't make this stuff up even if you tried. I have friends who don't follow the NBA telling me, see told you it was fixed...UGH

I just don't get how this matters so much. Just play the damn game

It matters because when everything first happened a bunch of players, coaches, etc. got caught up in the hysteria and made a bunch of over the top statements that they now may have to back up.

Sounds like you are butthurt. You can thank Boston for starting this whole trio thing and Miami just made it worse.

Things change, the NBA is changing.

' who are they to hold a grudge'?

If the King can forgive, shouldn't we all?

They say, sometimes it's better be lucky then good.
If ever that ruled applied, it appears to be the Cavs the last couple months.

Cavs are going to have a hard time making this trade.

Woj is reporting Minny won't make any deals without you taking Martin AND Barea off their hands. Cleveland can't take those two contracts without a third team involved.

WHAT team out there is going to help them get Love without them giving up significant pieces?

 

[Hambombs]

Even if cavs get love, I still have San Antonio winning it all again

As I said several times, Lebron going back to cleveland had little to do with going back home.....He fooled all those gullible clowns

You think they give a shit. He is here now and fans want championships. He came here to win Cleveland a championship.

He has a better opportunity to win. That's if they got love though

That's the only reason he went back. He knew about Love situation and knew that Kyrie just re-signed for the max so he thought he had a better opportunity to win with a younger group of players.

I still think the heat presented a better opportunity to win over the next 3 seasons

and they still won't win a title.

GL to Heat winning anytime soon, at least Cleveland has a chance. Without Lebron Miami is nothing now.

I don't think anyone, outside of the media, cares why he went back.

Most are just glad he did because it means the playoffs in the East are no longer a foregone conclusion .

That's what you think.....And 2016 isn't far away.

Miami is a contender in the East right now and in 2016 they'll be a top 5 team in the league again

If Loves goes to Cleveland it will basically be the same thing with the only real contender being Chicago with a healthy Rose as was the case for the last 4 years

I have my money on okc or San Antonio. Cavs IMO don't have the defense to get it done. Also lebrons defense has regressed. Kyrie and love aren't good defensively. Also heat big 3 in 2010 was much better. OKC still has the best 1-2 possibly. Outside of lebron and love I don't really trust kyrie

What happens in 2016?

Does everyone outside of Bosh and the Rookies come off the books?

That's the funniest part about it.
For 4 years Cavs fans hated him and swore they would never welcome him back.
I know first hand. I heard it from my relatives.

Now, crickets

His losing now will just be magnified, and if you do ever win, after about 3 days, you really won't care to much.
