    Nothing new as it's just reposting the same story with Richard Jefferson. It ain't happening.

    Darn kids want to change everything.
    Paving the streets and putting in sidewalks ruined the place. Don't even get me started on the bike paths.

    If I'm Olshey I'm taking this very seriously. Olshey needs to clear some space. If we got Bron it would the biggest get sinse thr Blazers landed Scottie Pippen.

    Yes, but they can decline the crumbs altogether if they're rotten and moldy. If you're the Cavs and you have the choice of paying luxury tax for Evan Turner and Meyers Leonard, or letting Lebron walk and completely resetting, you do the latter. IMO, if opt-in and trade is an option, Portland needs to offer CJ as a minimum to get Cleveland on board, otherwise they're better off just not participating.

    Which is why we won't get him. Lebron will be choosing the best possible scenario for him to win. You offer a "minimum of CJ" then why would he choose to come here? Surrounding LBJ with multiple shooters make some sense. Just having Dame is not as desirable. A Dame, CJ, Harkless, LBJ, Nurk, or a Dame, CJ, LBJ, Collins, Nurk line-up is the minimum type of lineup he would consider IMO.

    Unless of course we were able to finagle the Turner/Aminu for Griffin trade, and get Cleveland to include Korver in the Lebron for CJ/Harkless deal. Then you're looking at a starting lineup of Dame/Korver/Lebron/Griffin/Nurkic.

    Hey--let me have my dreams!!

    LeBron will probably force his way to HOU so he can play with CP3.

    Which means Eric Gordon could be a salary cap casualty (like he was when NOP traded CP3 to LAC). Unfortunately, his salary just went up from $12,943,020 to $13,500,375, which means he now makes too much to fit under the Crabbe TPE ($12,969,502 + $100,000).

    But hey, Ryan Anderson will likely be available (again) to anyone (no one) who wants him!!!!

    Wouldn't that require Cleveland to participate in a S&T where they take on both Anderson's and Gordon's contracts? Can't imagine that they'd do that.
