OT - Lebron James

[HonusWagner66]

No..I think I understand...my point was with basically the whole salary cap being spent on 3 players...where does the rest of the team fit in?....

Keep in mind they are allowed to go over the cap. They'll just have to pay the luxury tax.

We have already talked about Kovy at great lengths, why not Lebron now?

 

[ritari330]

He is going to be the Caps 2nd line center at 500K for 3 years

 

[IPostedWhat]

He's going to head up the newly formed KBA in Russia for 23 million a season, and all the Ushanka's he wants.

personally i'd rather discuss which bodily fluid would be the worst to drink

 

[Destroydacre]

geez i wonder who will win next year.

The Lakers

This whole thing is a disgrace. The worst part is, this'll probably get huge ratings. Sad...

I say plasma, but I eagerly await your thread about this on the main board.

I think if Lebron signs with anyone but Cleveland his image is tarnished. He'd be screwing the city of Cleveland over big time and I'll wish nothing but a career ending injury on him.

How so?

 

[IPostedWhat]

The guy already has everything in the World at a young age, except for a Championship.

Lets face it, he's not going to get one in Cleveland.

People aren't going to say he's one of the greatest if he doesn't have any rings to show for it.

 

[pixburgher66]

i think his best chance long term is in chicago. miami would be nice because it's star studded, but there's NO DEPTH. seriously, they have nothing besides those three!! if he wants to win, he'll show it. i will gain more respect for him if he takes less money or something to win, until that happens, he's just a big man with nothing but a bunch of pointless awards.

 

[Jimmy_the_Tongue]

I'm from Pittsburgh....and even I would feel bad for Cleveland if he left...and that's saying something...

LOL!

Lebron is a big story and there is almost NOTHING going on in sports right now. I don't see any issue with chatting about it, especially only two hours before the decision, not the two months (years?) of coverage ESPN has given.

 

[pixburgher66]

yeah...i sort of supported the cavs because they're the closest to town, but lebron made me not like them...but that would be hard if he left. they've tried to get him help...just hasn't worked.

I agree with the last statement, but I think it's very possible to win in Cleveland. They've been right in the mix the last 4 years and people underrate some of their players. They just need to get rid of Shaq and Jamison.

 

[IPostedWhat]

I thought Shaq was the missing piece to help them win though?

Yeah, I don't know who got sold on that. I thought they should have added Amare a year and a half ago when they had a shot at him.
