July 8, 201016 yr Now there is a source saying he is staying in Cleveland. I hope he sings with Italy. Seen on twitter that a lot of agents and GM's still think he stays in Cleveland just because it doesn't make sense to leave.
July 8, 201016 yr Author This thread is approaching "Classic" status. We have dissension, rumors, laughs, and some spirited debate.
July 8, 201016 yr This thread is approaching "Classic" status. We have dissension, rumors, laughs, and some spirited debate. Sure has been a good un'. Just think we still have about 3 and a half hours to go, then some.
July 8, 201016 yr Seen on twitter that a lot of agents and GM's still think he stays in Cleveland just because it doesn't make sense to leave. I just can't buy into the whole it doesn't make sense to leave idea. Other than being his hometown, and if he does win a ring there it would be the ultimate accomplishment, it makes perfect sense. The team he is surrounded by right now isn't going to match up well with all the teams that are coming together in the East right now. Miami is going to be better, Celtics will have one last run, Magic will more than likely be better, Bulls will be better. Bobcats are starting to emerge. Cleveland on the other hand has to pretty much stand pat while they get older, and have few moves to make. There is about three or four situations IMO that would surround him with better players, ultimately making it a better team.
July 8, 201016 yr ^ Or maybe it is to celebrate the end of free agency period or Carmelo's wedding. Could be...I'm sure people are looking for any little bit of info that gives some sort of hint of Lebron to Miami.
July 8, 201016 yr Ric Bucher tweet. RicBucher FWIW: disparate opinions among gms, agents, league HQ officials today about where LeBron is going, but consensus on 1 thing: it's not Mia.

I really hope he goes to NY. My hatred for him would grow if he went to Miami and to be honest I'm not even sure why. Maybe because I know he'll be successful there.

This article seems to state the opposite. http://www.prosportsdaily.com/comments/executive-lebron-james-expected-to-join-miami-heat-385665.html
July 8, 201016 yr No one knows. Just a lot of guesses from a lot of people. I'm sure the GM's from other teams don't know and they are just guessing. The only people who know are Lebron and his people.

Maybe because I know he'll be successful there. :lol: I feel you. I kind of feel the same way even though it wouldn't bother me initially to see him in Miami. That would likely change if they beat the Lakers in the Finals though.

Boston is old, Bosh and Wade is not enough to convince me they'd be better than Cleveland with LeBron and Orlando is beatable if Cleveland gets the proper pieces.
July 8, 201016 yr This thread is approaching "Classic" status. We have dissension, rumors, laughs, and some spirited debate.I'm loving it. Initially I hated the whole free agent saga, but I've had a quick change of heart. I missed the comedic element of it all at first. Hell, I may even be watching the special. Could be really fun to see Cleveland have it's heart ripped out (a city I by no means have fond memories of) on national TV by their "savior". Plus it's gotten me through a VERY boring week of work!
July 8, 201016 yr Cleveland could do the same thing Miami did and get him CP3. Boston is old, Bosh and Wade is not enough to convince me they'd be better than Cleveland with LeBron and Orlando is beatable if Cleveland gets the proper pieces. Cleveland has tried to get CP3 and the Hornets have balked at everything the Cavs have threw there way. They have nothing anybody else wants. Most of the contracts they have right now they are also locked into for at least a couple of years. So with about the only trade bait being Delonte West and his only half a mil guarantee, theres not a lot they can do until they get out of those contracts. Will Lebron really want to stand pat with what they have and keep trying until eventually they "may" bring some help? They once had Boozer but could not hang onto him, Bosh didn't want to be there. Guy's just don't want to come to Cleveland. Edited July 8, 201016 yr by dolamite
July 8, 201016 yr I thought Paul "The Real Drama Queen" Pierce won the Finals MVP. Did Garnett win it? You're right. I just got in a hurry.:thumb:
