I don't think the heat is quite as hot on LeBron since he's already won les before as opposed to Durant...
Question, if the Cavs continue to look this bad, does the same logic apply to Lebron? He's going to opt out this summer (at a minimum so he can sign another 1+1 with the cavs - maxing his earning power, while preserving his leverage over personnel decisions - how they ended up with Love). If Lebron can't see this Cav's team beating GS, does he try for rings elsewhere? The Miami superteam worked for him; would he try to establish another one?

GM LeBron can trade Love for Melo and Kyrie for Paul, so he can play with his friends.
Lebron wont leave, he has the Cavs by the balls and I doubt he passes that up. More likely they'll dump Love (should have already done it) and/or Kyrie.
Welcome to San Antonio, Lebron???
No cap space after signing Durant
^ my post disappeared, but what I said was:
true true
Ill take Love!
We should make a run at Kyrie...I know we have nothing legitimate to offer (that we'd give up) but if Lebron is calling the shots who knows what he'll do coming off a 4 or 5 game blow out series? , he might value Diaw and TP simply because they beat him when he was in Miami....
Bend over, I'll ing give you Love.
Doesn't ST screen for members anymore? This page and thread is filled with idiots.
So Ibaka is saying that Durant is not going anywhere....So I assume he is staying with OKC......
Considering Durant is having face to face meetings when free agency opens up refutes Ibaka's positiveness. Take Marc Gasol for example. He met no one. It was a forgone conclusion he was resigning.
Why I don't think he's staying in OKC
1) KD has literally said that $ is not everything. He praised West for such a sacrifice to chase a le.
2) He wants to look around. He's states he needs to be selfish and look at the best fit for him. He's eliminated the Rockets as a possible destination which means he's literally looking and considering other teams.
3) He's also stated he doesn't want to go through this again..as in being a FA. Everybody expects him to sign+1 due to $. But it'd be pointless to sign that deal without the ABSOLUTE intention to sign a 5yr Max the following year.
4) OKC does not want Durant to sign a +1. and they literally can't plan for the future if he doesn't sign 5yr deal. Westbrook, Ibaka, Adams all will be free agents next year. OKC would like Durant to sign long term now to help sell Westbrook on staying AND help the franchise in long run.
5) Other teams in league can sell NOW and FUTURE
Well it would be pretty cool if Durant could sign with the Spurs but I just have a feeling that he is going to stay with OKC......
Point 4 is important. The Spurs and Warriors have their stars signed for the next few years while Durant could possibly sign a 5-year deal with OC and watch important pieces leave.
boban rulesssssssssssssssssssssssssss
durant to the spurs
thon maker
and we are set!!!!!! lol

Found this old article.... Worth a read
Bring back Damion James (Just cut him in the pre-season) and let's get to recruiting KD
Is there a chance he opts out and signs for the vet minimum?
That's the most likely scenario ...
Same as LeBron and Durant coming here together
I'm down with that but I hope we can somehow get a defensive point guard like Avery Bradley or MCW and we're all set.
