Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
I would hardly call the Lakers or Celtics megastar teams. I think we can all agree that both teams have a lot of solid players which is why they are championship teams. But it's Kobe and Pau (I wouldn't consider Artest and Odom megastars) and the Big 3 came together at the decline of their careers. They weren't all in their prime like this team would be.Originally posted by My Wife"The Celtics only won because they have a magical elf playing for their team...."Comment

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
I don't know why you guys keep pretending that opting out of a 60 win first place team is the same as a lopsided trade. Also don't see how you could compare the Pre-trade Timberwolves, Pre-trade Lakers or Pre-trade Celtics to the Cavs. Antawn Jamison averaged 20 and 10 last year before joining Cleveland. Mo Williams was a 17ppg scorer at the point for years, and a knockdown 3pt shooter. Verajao is one of the best roleplayers in the league. Cleveland needs a tweak, not an overhaul.
But I guess they'll always be remembered as the worst 60 win team in NBA History.#RespectTheCultureComment

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
I dont see the reason for the hate really
Respect him for staying in CLE but not for leaving? So you basically if he loses he takes home the moral victory of your respect but doesnt achieve what he's playing bball for
As opposed to teaming up with another star for a more legit shot at a ring whom he won a gold medal with?
Would it matter if it was him joining NY with Amare then Melo comes over?
I dont get it really but I dont feel the same way.Comment

LeBron will be Batman wherever he goes. That's why Wade and Bosh said they'd take a paycut so he could sign the max.Comment

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
To put it in perspective, three out of the top 5 draft picks in one of the best drafts in history have opted out of their contracts and left their teams to join up in Miami(excepting Wade, who was already there). There is nothing in history that compares to this situation.Comment

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
And there is only 1 of him.
Boston gets a pass because Seattle was disintegrated and KG had served too long under an incompetent regime. Plus all of these guys were on their last chance. Lebron is freaking 25 on a 60 win team. It's a little early to throw in the towel on that team.Comment

Re: The Official "Where is LeBron going?" Thread
You're lying to yourself if you think Mo Williams is a good PG, Antawn Jamison is a championship PF and Anderson Varejao is any different than a Big Baby Davis or Marcin Gortat. I don't think any of those guys would have started in Boston, Los Angeles, or even Dallas or Phoenix.Comment
