Agreed. It seems like he's heading towards Phoenix Shaq status. I remember people stop taking Shaq seriously once he was traded to Phoenix. Shaq became more of celebrity than a baller after he left Miami. Lebron is heading in that same direction.
That's the most lopsided trade in the history of trades. The three players coming from the Cavs are better than our entire roster combined.
Is Lebron D gone bad or is it an effort thing?
looks like it.. wow
That makes Spurs players look overpaid.![]()
That's why I used the the blue font...
Probably both. Don't watch the Cavs all that much but Dunc'd On mentioned that he guards the weakest option perimeter option (say Danny Green) so he can help off but isn't effective in a "free roam" role and also is horrid at closing out, often just looking at players as he shoots (pick up basketball on a humid summer day defense)
Kyrie looks like a ing genius tbh. That ship is sinking anic style and Lebron is the only person that has a piece of furniture to float on- even though it is clear big enough to two people![]()
Trying to compete with Golden State I think we have to take what we can get. I think we're a better team with LeBron, despite of the issues that can come along with it. I think he will age decently and be better in a role where he's asked to do less. Yes his defense has sucked lately, he's also being asked to do everything right now.
dream mode: Anderson, Green, Kawhi, Lebron, Aldridge
I think it is actually looking good that he ends up in Houston at this point. They have had a great regular-season so far, should do better in the playoffs this year, and he would be maybe the final piece of that puzzle. But other than that I don’t see him ever winning another championship.
I think it would be hard for him to end up in Houston simply because they don't have any cap space granted they could do a sign and trade with the Cavs.
If he goes to GS that would be the move of a lifetime..
The Bridge is burning down in Cleveland.
Not going to Lakers, they suck and Lavar Ball is legally insane..
So his options are shrinking in a hurry..
They'd have to dump donkey and Klay
Said it before the bum went back to cle. Hes a cryer, a quitter, and spurs do not want.
He Def quit on Miami. He had Pat Riley running the damn team ready to add pieces, so they could keep winning rings. He bolted like a thief in the night.. And of course he quit on Cleveland the first time.. About to bail again..
You might be right about that one.
And who was Kyrie replaced with? A 5'9 PG with a bad hip and a big mouth.. Yep fun times in Cleveland..
It's coming apart at the seams for them.

What is this, your grocery list?
That lineup is even worse than the current Cavs, and they're pretty bad.
You’re right about getting better to compete with GSW.
But we don’t know how driven PATFO are. Phil was willing to add Rodman to his roster and manage that risk in order to compete for championships. LBJ is nowhere near as dysfunctional, but PATFO appear to lack the drive for such a move. Remember that LBJ will also demand decent roster moves every year to remain compe ive, so it won’t go down well with a front office that is content to sit on their asses and occasionally dumpster-dive while other teams make trades.
