    when Steph's making 26' fallaway one-handers with time running out and they follow it up by posting Durant against George Hill, it doesn't matter how good LeBron is.

    I simply have no respect for Durant. None.

    It's looking good for Lebron to bail on Cleveland now

    I really wish I knew how much control he has had over the roster, the media has made it out like he got Tristan Thompson, Kevin Love, JR Smith contracts, and no one seems to really know what went down with Kyrie. If he was as big of a presence in crafting that roster as made out to be I don’t really feel that bad for him.
    It doesn’t take away from how awesome he is at basketball, the guy is on another level. Just can’t feel sorry for him having a crappy supporting cast if he was giving out directions to the GM on how to do it, and it’s not like they haven’t been willing to pay guys or go into the luxury tax.

    It was for Kevin Hart’s new movie and I assume the partnership with the nba because devin booker was also in it. Either way it was weird

    One thing we don't need is for the Shower to add more quality pieces in order to beat the Cavz; it's just as well for us if they can beat Cleveland easily.

    Uh, he already orchestrated much of the 2008-2010 deadline purges that left CLE's cupboard bare before bailing to MIA. Why wouldn't he do it again?

    Fair enough. At the time, there was a pretty well plugged-in subcommunity here that had pizza guys and the like they'd hear stuff from. But you can look at 2014 as an example of LeBron wanting vets he knows, not rookies, when building his squad. He did not want any part of Andrew Wiggins, and made CLE trade him for Love. (Worked out OK.) He may or may not have been the forcing factor with Kyrie, causing the pretty poor return of 15 games of Isaiah Thomas, Jae Crowder and BKN's lotto pick (#8, IIRC).
