[DPG21920]

I don't think anyone outside of Dallas understands the 7 point ecstasy you have with Roddy Beaubois. I think Cleveland hopes to one day understand how special players who average 7 PPG and lose minutes to Juan Jose Barea are.

Brah, Goran averages 7 points.

[DPG21920]

This is one stupid thread.

[jb4g]

btw....any plans for a new coach in the Big D? Or should we expect Lebron to only play Round 1 elimination games?

[mavsfan1000]

for the fucking MLE?
Yes. He already has enough money at this point. Winning is what he is interested in.

[BadOdor]

Brah, Goran averages 7 points.

yeah, but he ran a train on the spurs in the playoffs. Clearly he a playoff performer.

While Rody is busy sitting behind jj barea on the bench.

well shit, then why dont Bosh, Bron, and Wade all sign for the minimum in NY next year. They would go down as the greatest team in history and people would idolize them for caring about winning and not money. Besides, the endorsement money would be plenty to scrape by on.

oh wait, NBA players are greedy...what was I thinking?

[Goran Dragic]

Brah, Goran averages 7 points.


Notice how no one is suggesting Cleveland would want to bend over backwards to get Dragic?

Roddy B ran train on the Spurs as well. They just could not hold on for the win.

All I know is I'd be able to beat out JJ Barea for the backup PG job.

[The Gemini Method]

I don't see LeBron in L.A. at any point in his career, though it wouldn't surprise me if he pulls an A-Rod and comes towards the end of his peak. I dont know if I really care where he ends up, but one thing is for certain--the period between the end of the Finals and July 1st is going to be filled with soooo much rumors it may be more exciting than the actual Finals.

Bro, any team can do sign and trades. It is a matter of having something they want.

The Clippers have a nice amount of talent, that Lebron could walk right into and he will be in LA to possibly create one of the best rivalries between Lakers and Clippers.

The Nets have young talent, a super rich owner, and Jay Z. Plus he could make Brooklyn his own playground.

There are a lot of possibilities that can't be dismissed.

If you can bload someone for Lebron coming, you should be equally as scoffed for being a huge duemass if you are wrong.

[Man About Town]

Well its obvious Mavs fans have convinced themselves its going to happen.

If Mavs fans are this convinced, imagine what Knicks fans are like.

I'm convinced he resigns with the Cavs or goes to Chicago to team up with Rose and Noah. But I think there's a chance, and if he wants to make it happen, it will.

I think the Clippers can be dismissed on multiple grounds - ownership situation, stepchild tenant in the Lakers building. It would be a much different situation if they played at the Pond in Anaheim and had a different owner.

I'll say the LeBron Derby is down to the following teams - Cavs, Bulls, Knicks, Nets, Heat and Mavs.

So it's the team that has bird rights to Lebron, 4 teams that have the cap room to sign Lebron, and then randomly a team that doesn't have the cap room to sign Lebron :lmao

more evidence Mavfan is the only group that thinks there's even a .1% chance he ends up in Dallas.

There's no point in having any kind of discussion on this with you when you don't understand how LeBron has all the leverage, not the Cavs. Maybe if every fan was like you and ignorantly and reflexively blamed the team for trading away their best player instead of losing him for nothing, then I could see the Cavs absolutely refusing to participate in a S'n'T at the risk of alienating such fair-weather front-runners.

They will do what is in the best interests of their franchise. Plan A is convincing LeBron to sign an extension. Plan B is negotiating a soft landing if he won't.

There is a possibility that LeBron ends up in Dallas. I've already spelled it out for you. If LeBron wants to be a Dallas Maverick, then he will be a Dallas Maverick. They have the trade assets to get him. It's not my problem if you can't grasp this.

of course any team can do an S&T but very few if any have a contract like Damp that the mavs can through the Cavs way. If Lebron requests a S&T and Cle agrees, then the Mavs would be the most appleaing candidate to do so.

Ill give you NJ as a possiblity since they've moved out of the IZOD center and headed to a nice arena in Newark, until Brooklyn is ready

Lebron will not go to LAC and play for a shit owner in Sterling and an organization that has had 0 direction in its existence

What makes Dallas more special than all the other teams that don't have the cap room to sign him?

[Man About Town]

What makes Dallas more special than all the other teams that don't have the cap room to sign him?

Option A - New York, New Jersey, Miami, Chicago: They get nothing back for him, they have $10 million more in commitments in 2011, they get their asses kicked by him four times a year, if they ever make it back to the playoffs, LeBron's team is a permanent roadblock.

Option B - Dallas: $10 million more to spend on free agents in the summer of 2011, their pick will likely be in the lottery, they'll pick up another first-rounder from the Mavs, they'll get a promising young player in Roddy Beaubois, they will see LeBron only twice a year instead of four times.

What do you do if you're the Cavs and LeBron won't agree to an extension? Most superstars accept and shoulder the responsibility of lifting the team that drafted him, but the precedent of abandoning your original team has been set with Kareem and Shaq. I think LeBron resigns with Cleveland, but what do you do if he won't? Do you do Option A or Option B?

obviously you dont understand the value of Damp's contract. Any team that trades for him and waives him before August 1st does not have to pay his contract. If a team acquire JRich, they would have to pay him his salary where as with Dampier, his contract is non-guarenteed and the team could just waive him and not pay his ass a dime

[djohn2oo8]

Here's to hoping Mavfans aren't serious about this

[DPG21920]

They have to pay some of his contract. Just not a large portion of it. Only like 3M or so IIRC. That is a huge chip, but I don't see it being enough for Bron because they will want talent back. It is not like FA's flood CLE.

[sribb43]

The Damp chip is quality, because his contract is largely unguaranteed, but that is not the only thing you can look at.

true but telling a team that they dont have to pay X amount of $$$ in order to complete a S&T is a huge advantage. mavs have a greater chance than alot of other teams w/o cap space, that all im saying...

Is trading Jamison's contract something they can only do with Dallas? The cheapest option is once Lebron walks finding a team to trade an expiring for Jamison which wouldn't be hard.

If a team is over the cap and can put together the same kind of package as Dallas can (reduces future $$ commitments, draft picks, promising young player), and LeBron wants to play for them, then they would absolutely be in the mix as well. Can you name such a team?

Now that I've answered your question, can you answer mine: Option A or Option B if you're Danny Ferry and LeBron won't agree to an extension?

Is trading Jamison's contract something they can only do with Dallas? The cheapest option is once Lebron walks finding a team to trade an expiring for Jamison which wouldn't be hard.

Jamison has two years and $28 million left on his deal and he's 34 years old. First you have the Cavs front office turning into basket cases and unable to move or do anything but cry softly if LeBron walks, thus they'll "suck for the next 5 years." Now you have them nimbly jettisoning bad contracts and retooling quickly. So they're also going to be able to dump Mo Williams, Daniel Gibson and Andy Varejao as well?

Pick a lane please. Your logic seems to center around the idea that they will stick their thumbs up their asses and not "collaborate" with LeBron James leaving because some of their more ignorant fans will throw hissy fits on Cavs message boards.

Plan A for them is getting LeBron to agree to an extension. Plan B is shedding bad contracts and rebuilding quickly if he doesn't.

Because he doesn't want to see LeBron James four times a year, or have to deal with LeBron's team in the playoffs.

The Nets have Brook Lopez, Devin Harris, a top five pick, a new arena, and a deep pockets owner. The Knicks can put a premier FA alongside him with the amount of cap space they have. Miami has the cap space to put him alongside Dwyane Wade. Chicago has a core of Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah waiting for him. If Ferry tells LeBron to piss off, he can watch him dominate the Cavs and the rest of the Eastern Conference for the next 10 years in a Bulls/Knicks/Nets/Heat uniform.

[Findog]

Not to mention Lebron loses money if he does not do a S&T.

Which is why he will ask the Cavs to S'n'T him so he gets that extra year, if he decides to leave. The leverage of being able to walk away gives him the ability to do that. At that point the Cavs will be sifting through the best S'n'T offers for him.

[Findog]

Lebron isn't getting another max contract FA to sign anywhere with him, that's what I've been trying to say.

The Knicks will have $13 million in cap space left over should they sign him. LeBron/$13 million FA acquisition/David Lee + ability to name his own coach, GM and play in the financial/media/cultural capital of the country and be given the opportunity to revive basketball in New York is a pretty enticing offer.

If he doesn't want to do that, he can team up with Wade in Miami.

Or he can join Rose and Noah in Chicago.

Or he can go to a promising situation in Jersey to play for Russian Mark Cuban and Jay Z.

If Ferry doesn't want to play ball with Dallas, he's opening himself up to LeBron bolting to an in-conference rival. There's a reason the Lakers traded Shaq to Miami, even though they reportedly got better offers from other Western teams.

[Findog]

And since Dallas is the center of the universe, the best s'n't is by far for the Great 7 points ecstasy!

Do you have anything useful to add?

Dallas' offer is much better than nothing. Maybe you don't understand this, but when you trade a superstar just entering his prime like LeBron, it's usually for non-basketball reasons, and you don't get back 100 cents on the dollar.

Your whole premise is that the Cavs will cut their nose to spite their face in the event that LeBron decides to bolt...and it is far better to do nothing in order to "appease" fans that already know full well that if LeBron leaves, it will be his choice and the Cavs can't stop him.

I get what you're trying to say, that you think Cleveland fans would hold the Cavs management responsible for his exit, but that's not the reality. They know full well LeBron has the leverage to get whatever he wants.

[Findog]

Amare doesn't wanna play with Lebron, Bosh wants to be a #1 option, and Wade sure as hell doesn't wanna be his perimeter sidekick. There's no way he's getting another max FA

So he goes to Chicago and starts another Bulls Dynasty with Rose and Noah.

Is Lebron not less likely to leave if he knows he's not getting the extra year?

[Roddy Beaubois]

7 point ecstasy is less than 5 cents on the dollar

:lmao at this being your argument. "That promising young rookie only averaged 7 points a game on 12 mpg!"

[Goran Dragic]

I'm saying Cleveland fans will lose interest once Lebron leaves and 7 point ecstasy isn't gonna change that. Maybe you disagree, but I think the Cavs know they're up shit's creek without a paddle if Lebron leaves so they're gonna do whatever they can to prevent it from happening.

Wow. I read most of these post and they are GARBAGE! I feel sorry for DOK, he's putting logic on why Dallas won't get Lebron, but it seems like he gets trolled by some mav fans or something. Dang, this is what a first round exit could do to the Mavericks. It's just almost impossible to bring in Lebron because of the points DSF pointed out and even if draft picks were involved, why would Cleveland want some late round draft picks. Dallas is still going to do well in the regular season.


BTW, cuppycake gumdrop? that's one of the worst trolls i have ever seen.

[Findog]

What's an extra year to LeBron really? Twenty million? Like that matters with his endorsement money? Is twenty million gonna keep him around in a situation that is not his first choice?

[Roddy Beaubois]

He hates rookies.

[Goran Dragic]

why would Cleveland want some late round draft picks.


My guess is the same reason they want 7 point ecstasy. Anything that comes from Dallas turns to gold!

[Findog]

DOK's "logic" consists of the Cavs doing nothing instead of salvaging a bad situation. The most likely scenario is he resigns with the Cavs or goes to NY or Chicago. Dark-horse scenarios involve Miami, New Jersey and Dallas.

If LeBron wants to join the Mavs, then he will, and the Cavs don't have the leverage to really say otherwise. They will not let him walk to an in-conference rival and be stuck with the contracts of Jamison, Varajao, Mo and Gibson, when they can improve their situation for 2011 and rid themselves of Jamison by trading him to Dallas.

The Cavs have the leverage, the argument is over whether or not they'll use it. You can't deny the fact Cleveland has leverage in the situation.

That can be said of many teams in the West, what makes the mavs any different? Even if he has a no trade clause, why in the hell would he want to go to the Mavericks? That team is older than the Spurs. Lets say we bring this logic that Cleveland trades to a western conference team. Why not trade with Portland? OKC? Hell, even clippers have a better chance. They have some kind of future.

How DoK fails to see this is embarrassing. Not saying Lebron will want to come to Dallas, but if he does, he can.

[Goran Dragic]

I like the built in cop out for what happens when he doesn't go to Dallas.

[Goran Dragic]

Because they're the team that resides where Findog and Mono live. That's why this is even an argument.

[Roddy Beaubois]

Portlands an interesting idea. Not sure if they have an expiring the size of the Dust chip though. OKC has its own young mega star. Durant is probably top 3 in the league and plays the same position. Don't think he would want to share that. lol Clippers

Dallas has a great team for the now. If Lebron came here he would basically be guaranteed a ring. Not a great team for the future though, and thats what might scare him off. But, an owner like Cuban can continue to find pieces to put around him. Another thing is that Dallas is a big market. Not NY big, buts its a hell of a lot bigger than OKC and Portland.

[DPG21920]

What? Damp's contract is partially guaranteed. If CLE trades for him, they waive him and pay him a portion of his contract I thought.

[Roddy Beaubois]

They pay him nothing. Mike Fisher has been jerking off to this for a solid year.

[Findog]

Dampier's unique contract. If another West team had a contract like that, and LeBron wanted to play for them, it would put them in the mix.


Even if he has a no trade clause, why in the hell would he want to go to the Mavericks?

Outside of Chicago, they have the best roster for him to join up with. They have an owner financially committed to paying the luxury tax if necessary. They'll play 8-10 home games a year at Cowboys Stadium. It's a top five media market. That's the sales pitch.


Lets say we bring this logic that Cleveland trades to a western conference team. Why not trade with Portland? OKC?

If LeBron wants to play for the Blazers or Zombie Sonics, then he will. I'm sure the Cavs would take back a package centered around Brandon Roy, or the Zombie's collection of young players and picks...if the alternative was him walking to an East team for nothing. But what Dallas offers that those two places don't is a big media market and nightlife. All things being equal, the most attractive FA destinations are New York, Chicago, LA, Orlando, Phoenix, Houston and Dallas. Those are all big markets with lots of nightlife, and outside of Chicago and NY, they are also warm-weather cities. I think Dallas is about fourth on LeBron's list, but I highly doubt that Portland or the Zombies are on that list at all.


Hell, even clippers have a better chance. They have some kind of future.

No, they don't. They're the Clippers. They have a lot of talent, but a terrible ownership situation. LeBron is not signing with a team owned by Donald Sterling.

[Goran Dragic]

Pretty sure they're right on Damp's contract being unguaranteed DPG, that's why they circle jerk to the type of trade chip it is.

[Roddy Beaubois]

If Lebron comes to Dallas I don't want DoK to leave. I want him to have to walk around here with the scarlet letter for years.

[Findog]

I like the built in cop out for what happens when he doesn't go to Dallas.

No Mav fan in this thread besides Ghazi takes the idea of LeBron coming to Dallas seriously. But it's been well understand that if he wants to come here, it will happen.

[Goran Dragic]

And when Lebron wants a s'n't to a team over the salary cap and Cleveland says no dice, same to you Mono.

[Goran Dragic]

I understand why you think Damp's contract doesn't mean much. You're used to your owner having valuable trade chips and pissing them away for nothing. You're used to seeing a genius at work selling away the rights to Luol Deng and Rudy Fernandez and Rajon Rondo.

We get it, we really do.


I don't wanna get in this topic but that was just as much D'antoni as it was Sarver. As long as Kerr is GM that bullshit won't happen anymore.

[kamikazi_player]

That might be as bad as some people think. It's kinda hard to tell because Blake Griffin hasn't played a game yet. I bet he'll be a double double machine. As for the big markets, I really doubt he'll twist the arms of the owner just to go play with a 38 year old and bad pieces around that team. (I didn't mention about Dirk, but i mention players like Terry, JJ Barea, Marion)

[Roddy Beaubois]

Not sure about that, Their roster is very old, and people complain about the Spurs being old. Jason Kidd is 37 probably going to be 38 by next playoffs come around. Terry, Marion, and Haywood is probably not going to get Lebron's attention. Yeah he has Dirk, but it would suck to have Lebron and Dirk do all the dirty work every night while the other players become inconsistent and a non-factor by playoff time rolls around again.

how many times is this going to be your LAST prediction???

[DPG21920]

I just don't think Lebron has as much power as you guys say. It has to be mutually beneficial. Lebron can't just bully his way to a team over the cap.

[monosylab1k]

yes, tbh.

I had a vision. Yes, last night, I had a vision. And I felt God's breath go through me, and it moved down into my stomach, and sloshed around, and my stomach spoke in a whisper, not a shout- "Touch this website with your hands, and show them where LeBron will go."

Yes, the Devil is in SpursTalk's hands, and I will suck it out. Now, I will not cast this ghost out with a fever, for the new spirit inside me has shown me I have a new way to communicate. It is a gentle whisper.

Get out of here, ghost. Get out of here, ghost. Get out. Get out of here, ghost. Get out of here, ghost. Get out of here, ghost. Get out of here, and don't you dare turn around and come back, for if you do, all the armies of my boot will kick you in the teeth, and you will be cast up, and thrown in the dirt, and thrust back to Perdition! And as long as I have teeth, I will bite you! And if I have no teeth, I will gum you! And as long as I have fists, I will bash you! Now, get out of here ghost! Get out of here, ghost! Get out of here, ghost!

And it left!

And now the vision is here. LeBron will be a Dallas Maverick.

[Roddy Beaubois]

1) Paying a large lump sum of $80,000 for seeking psychiatric help is too pricey for your mild mental retardation.

2) Can you not count? Are you also a troll belonging to that IDIOT mono?

3) Becoming drug free and living a clean lifestyle may help your next record be absolute dogshit, as the poochie in my avatar will be momentarily demonstrating.

Any Mavfan thinking there's a 0.1% chance Lebron is going to Dallas is delusional. It's that simple. There is a 0% chance Lebron goes to Dallas.

http://insider.espn.go.com/nba/features/rumors#16108


There has been a lot of articles recently that has mentioned Dallas as a possible destination for Lebron. Here's one today from ESPN Insider.
James' options



Cleveland. No matter what happens in the playoffs, LeBron still has strong ties and loyalty to the city.
Chicago. The Bulls desperately need a scorer, and with Derrick Rose (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=3456) and Joakim Noah (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=3224), this team could make noise for years to come.
New Jersey. He could pair with John Wall if the team lands the No. 1 pick.
Los Angeles Clippers (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/clubhouse?team=lac). They'll likely have a better chance at small forward Rudy Gay (http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/players/profile?playerId=3005), but LeBron fills a need for them.
Dallas. They can sign-and-trade for the King.
Miami. Dwyane Wade is probably a better pair with a low-post scorer such as Chris Bosh, Carlos Boozer or Amare Stoudemire, but we're sure Pat Riley wouldn't mind the King either.


"And there's also a team like Dallas, who will have sign-and-trade options and the ability to play home games in the new Cowboys' stadium to sell to the King." - quote regarding Dallas in the article.

Dampier can instantly save a team $13 million, that's one of the most financially attractive contracts in the league right now, if not the most financially attractive.

Also, Caron Butler is expiring for $10 million next season (like J-Rich I believe) and he's a talent that Mavs are obviously willing to let go of for Lebron. Along with Beaubois and a possibly a couple of first rounders.

[mikeschy55]

Also, if you go do some research you'll find that the majority of star players have actually left through S&T in the past. S&T contracts are more financially attractive to players because it allows an extra year of guaranteed money that would normally violate NBA regulations. That's probably the #1 argument for Lebron going to Dallas. If Dallas is the most financially attractive destination, if they have the most financially attractive S&T contracts to get the deal done (which they do), and iƒ Dallas has one of the biggest markets in the NBA (top 5) along with another superstar to pair up with.... why wouldn't it make sense? There were rumors in Dallas today that Lebrons wife was driving around some nice neighborhoods looking at houses by the way..... unconfirmed, but still reported.

Dampier ($13 million instant expiring this year), Butler ($10 million expiring next year, plus a talent) Roddy Beaubois (cheap talent), a couple of first rounders

for.....

Lebron and CLE's worst contract.

I hope LeBron reads all of this shit. It will make leaving that much easier.

Insecure Sun Fan has assured me that wheelbarrows of horse manure have more trade value than any of that.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Insecure Mavfan is just mad because I'm making fun of someone they think is the next Pistol Pete Maravich.

Damn.... the arbiters of wisdom have spoken then, case closed.

Whats humorous is that mav fan wants it both ways.

They assume that Cleveland would rather have Butler since he's better than "nothing" but also assume Cleveland would rather have "nothing" than Antawn Jamison (since they would want to cut salary).

Jamison has 2 years and $28 million left on his deal. Butler has 1 year and $10 million left on his. They don't care about either player long term; the choice is 1 year of Butler after LeBron for $10 million, or 2 years of Jamison after LeBron for $28 million. What is better to you?

[redzero]

Hey, I got it! LeBron James for Peja Stojakovic and Morris Peterson in a sign and trade.

$20 million in expiring = Cavs crazy not to do this deal.

:elephant

[Findog]

This scenario is contingent on them trading away Jamison for cap relief. And Monos is laughing at Suns fan saying that sometimes NOTHING is better than a particular player.

If they agree to trade LeBron to Dallas, they will insist on Antawn Jamison being included. It's a contract Dallas is willing to take on in order to get Bron, and it's pretty standard procedure now for GMs to insist on taking back a bad contractor contracts in addition to the star player.

[8FOR!3]

I think the Cavaliers collapse gets the dominoes falling for an epic power team. But unfortunately for Mavs fans, not in Dallas.

I think LeBron will get his buddy down in Miami and they'll join the Roc family in Jersey.

Devin Harris
Dwyane Wade
LeBron James
Derrick Favors (from the lottery)
Brook Lopez

And it begins. Br-br-br-brooklyn. Nets.

Hov!

You almost got it right.

It's;;

John Wall
Devin Harris
LeBron James
Amar'e Stoudamire
Brook Lopez

lol, could that even possibly work out like that? That shit's not even fair.

[badfish22]

That shit's not even fair.

Either is Lebron/Dirk. Add French Jesus in there and this league is on its knees begging for mercy.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Ezau may belong in the group, as well..
