    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">If the Cavs can't stop the slide, chances are high that both Paxson and head coach Paul Silas are gone. But even if they do make it, there's a possibility big changes could go down this summer. The minute Gilbert took over as the owner of the Cavs, the clock started ticking. He has roughly two years to create a world-class organization that can persuade LeBron to sign a long-term contract.

    With the length of contracts likely to be shortened, along with raises, the Cavs' advantages in keeping LeBron are likely to get slimmer. As Insider first reported months ago, James has lucrative kickers in his endorsement contracts should he move to New York, Chicago or L.A.

    Persuading LeBron to stick it out in Cleveland will be a monumental task. The Cavs not only have to make the right choices in free agency this summer but also have to find the right coach and upgrade almost every area of the organization. </div>
