    The debate over the NBA's screwy division makeup has started again, and I don;t understand how something so simple got screwed up.

    Easy Fix:

    Make each conference have two divisions. North and South. Winners of each division get the top two seeds. That way, winning the division would REALLY matter. You would also get two great races this year. In the east, it would be Cavs vs. Toronto for the North and Heat, Hawks, Hornets for the South. In the West you would have two clear cut Division winners.

    He's not even from Cleveland!

    Man - Cleveland is like the easiest place in the universe to make fun of and y'all still have to create make believe reasons to do it.

    LeBron supposedly unfollowed the Cavs on Twitter and Instagram so if he gives them back their old sweatshirt and changes the password on his Netflix so they can't use it we know it's over.

    Lol you can't make this stuff up. Would stir the pot even more if he was following the Heat and not Cleveland.

    Thank you for always being entertaining, LeBron.

    Let's game this out just for fun

    Would Wade take the minimum for LeBron?

    If he did we could sign LBJ, Wade and Whiteside while using Bird Rights to sign Deng

    Then in 2017 we could sign Wade to a 2 year $40 million to make it up to him.

    If we play the cavs in a series, i fully expect Lebron to pull an Andre 3000 Semi-Pro and run out of the locker room mid game in a heat uniform.

    Is there a salary cap for the front office? Why not just hire him after he retires as an exec and pay him a **** load of money?

    Does anyone think its plausible that Wade could be Rileys successor? Obviously we have to give him top scouts and a salary cap guy, but Riley also has that.

    Spurs offense coasted three quarters. They were rolling in the first and then pop decided to play his bench extended minutes and the Hornets took advantage of the mismatch.

    LeBron did an interview tonight after their win vs. the Nuggets.

    I like making jokes and trolling Cavs fans.

    But....HE REALLY IS LEAVING ISN'T HE?

    The official story on him unfollowing the Cavs is his annual ritual for getting off social media as he's about to hit the playoffs. He unfollowed the Cavs as well as several sideline reporters he's pretty cordial with, as well as Chris Broussard.

    That is grade A BS. he never unfollowed Heat beat writers and the Heat when he was down here, when he started his social media blackouts before the playoffs. He could have said so. He decided to stammer and keep up his troll job.

    there is the interview.

    But seriously...the Miami Real Estate thing. Come on. That is a DIRECT troll job of Cleveland. He KNOWS what everybody is talking about...and he goes and follows a Miami Real Estate company that has listings for Luxury homes?

    That guy painted a picture of all of us, walking around in flip flops, with designer shorts, and a Versace Shirt open to show our chest hair, while we wipe cocaine from our upper lip, all the while holding a high ball glass that has some type of Rum concoction.

    He is not....wrong....LOL

    Their premise seemed based on the idea that we want Lebron back. That basic premise is false. I know he's not at the top my list and judging by the posts here, nobody else has him at the top of their list either. Mostly what I see is people laughing at Cleveland's paranoia. They may or may not find that funny, but it's not bullying or jealousy. If anything, it's jealousy from Cleveland's side. Lebron returned to Cleveland and they thought that meant a championship, but now they're realizing it's looking like less and less likely. And unlike when Lebron left Cleveland, Miami has rebuilt pretty quickly with a team that seems to beat Cleveland more often than not. Personally, I don't worry about Cleveland all that much. I think Miami matches up well. I'd love to meet them in a conference final. I like our odds there even without home court. I'm more worried about how we match up with a Toronto, Charlotte or Boston.

    I'd definitely welcome LeBron back. It almost certainly puts Miami back in the Finals as long as he's here, and I trust Riley to put the right pieces around him to make sure we're just not losing to the Warriors every year.

    That being said, I just don't see any way LeBron and Rich Paul swallow their pride and come back. If anything, I think LeBron goes somewhere else.
