I immediately reach out to Carmelo. He needs to start building a legacy now. How great would it be for him to take James place and succeed career wise?Sell him on the idea.
Conspiracy time. James planned this all along. Wanted the Cavs to get picks and build their roster so he could return and maybe win
As a non-Heat fan, I really liked the piece he wrote for SI. He's matured a lot and has a good grasp of himself and what he believes is important. Good stuff. LeBron and Johnny Football bringing Cleveland back.
Don't lay this on Rich Paul. Lebron James is a backstabbing ****. I will boo his narcissistic ***. On a side note I'm glad he is gone and hopefully he will take the bandwagon fans with him.
OK...hes gone. Hey hey SEC....lets talk about our Miami Heat now. Who you think Riles will have lined up....cuz I know he didnt go into this without a back up plan.
It'll be nice to have a team that isn't three guys strong then held together the rest of the way with chewing gum. I'll admit I was really envious of the way the Spurs balled out this year with that team man. Ennis can be our Leonard, Wade our Ginobli, and hopefully Bosh is our Duncan. I'd look at adding Ariza, another PG, maybe Stephenson. I wish we'd have known sooner though. Could have offered some guys some good money. Deng becomes a real possibility now. LeBron was a rental and quite frankly the ROI was really damn good.
Don't do it dude. Don't go full Cavs fan. It was a fun four years. Everyone in the league would have traded for it.
How did Lebron back stab anyone? I mean...unless we hear differently from his team mates....cant see where what you said is the case.
That was a good piece through SI. I really like the allusion of his time with the heat as college. It is sometimes difficult to remember he entered the league right out of high school so never had some of the experiences many may take for granted while "growing up".
PM section for the truth about how this unfolded. Lebron did this on purpose to screw the franchise on the way out. **** him
Sure, we can be brothers as Phin fans. But, i've had to put up with quite a bit of s**t from some of the heat fans on this thread. Let's not act like it hasnt been alot of trash talking on here between myself and the regs on here.
Yeah man but we are just messing with you, we don't want to see Houston fail. Honestly its just vecause you are the lone Rocket fan
Seems like the Miami media is taking in stride. Mikey tweeted he was shocked and dissapointed, but thankful to have had him. Not sure that lebron and his people didn't tell a few lies along the way or if he just had a huge change of heart. Home is where the heart is.
No, I have a few trustworthy sources of my own. Everyone is BEYOND shocked. Heat were never told he was seriously considering anywhere else.
Lied to by who? I'd be kinda shocked if Lebron actually gave any guarantees and still walked away. I can imagine the organization feels like it just got groin punched though.
Huh? Not exactly but I can tell you that the company I work for works with Adidas/Heat/NBA and were told Lebron basically confitmed hos return ans to be ready for mass production of new merch.
