Re: LeBron James fans....
[QUOTE=Valliant13]I'm not much of Lebron fan, but he is an amazing player...so I would like to see him in a better situation. The Cavs are a garbage organization that overpays for limited scrubs, loses all stars because they are gullible, and will never draw free agents because really...who wants to live in a ****hole like Cleavland?
I prefer he went to the West, maybe Portland if they have the Capspace. Now that would be a Dynasty team: Bayless, Roy, Lebron, Aldrige, Oden, with Fernandez coming off the bench. Damn.[/QUOTE]
Still wouldnt match a Lakers with Lebron
Lebron
Kobe
Lamar
Gasol
Bynum
Lebron and kobe both can play the PG, there ball-handling and courtvision is top 10 and with such a long Tall ..and yet Fast team Defensivly be amazing
the offense, just run the triangle and every1 will dominate
and there will be no worries about who takes the last shot, b/c it will never get that close, they will Dominate!:rockon:
[but they would prob Trade lamar+filler in a S&T for bron..]
Re: LeBron James fans....
[QUOTE=Valliant13]I actually like most of the Cavs players...they are just limited. It's the Cavs front office that is garbage. Aside from picking Lebron first have they done one thing right since they got him?[/QUOTE]
The Cavs had one horrible offseason in 2005, signing Larry Hughes, Damon Jones, and Donyell Marshall to huge contracts that they didn't deserve.
But, aside from that rather large screw-up, I don't think the organization has done anything notably bad. I believe that acquiring Delonte West last year was a step in the right direction. He is a young, solid point guard that is exactly the kind of player that could thrive next to LeBron.
The rest of that trade was a wash, imo. We didn't get anything great, but didn't give up anything great, either.
I honestly think that the Cavs are one position away from winning a championship. They need a guy that can score in the post.
Let's face it... if the organization was THAT inept, the Cavs would not have done as well as they have the last three years in the postseason. They are 6-3 in the playoffs in that span and that includes losing a 7-game series to Detroit in '06 when no one thought they could take that to five games, a finals appearance, and giving the Celtics, by far, their toughest test of the playoffs.
This team is not that far away. They play great defense, are probably the best rebounding team in the league, and they have some solid shooters that can fill it up when they get hot.
Yes... Mistakes were made in the offseason a few years ago, but drafting Gibson in the second round, making Pavlovic and Varejao sit it out last season and take smaller contracts than they wanted, and the acquisition of West were all quality moves.
The sad thing is that Carlos Boozer would put this team over the top....
I will dismiss your comments about the city of Cleveland, because I doubt you have ever even visited. Cleveland and its outskirts are actually very nice. Downtown has had a resurgence in the last 20 years. It feels and looks a heck of a lot like Chicago. Some of the surrounding 'burbs would have you wondering if you were in Beverly Hills, not Cleveland.

Re: LeBron James fans....
Wonder how many stupid a$$ed posts there were when Duncan was supposedly leaving the Spurs (for the Magic), and Kobe was supposedly leaving the Lakers (for the Clippers). Both of those things happened right?
Re: The Official Lebron James 2010 prediction thread
I'm going to predict Nets too, but Lebron is "stuipdly" loyal to his friend Jay-Z ..he should go to the Knicks.
Re: The Official Lebron James 2010 prediction thread
Cavs I think. I wouldn't mind him going elsewhere just for the uproar/media response which may be entertaining, and because any change in the NBA is interesting to observe, whether its successful or not.

Why would he want to resign w/ the Cavs?
They have no trade value for the superstar to get them to the next level...
Big Ben-old
Z-old
Wally-old
snow-old
D.Jones-old
they have no future like us the YOUNGEST team in the NBA*when we drop KVH's contract.
No way its Clevland but a slight chance it MAY be NYK's
N-E-T-S baby!!!!!!

This is why he WON'T go to Chicago. He wants to create his own legacy.
