Cavs are pursuing a Kevin Love trade, contingent on the signing of LeBron, according to Woj.
The Cavs have a lot of speculation surrounding their team right now, but adding Kevin Love to LeBron makes sense considering they'd need some help up front. The Cavs would almost certainly have to give up Andrew Wiggins to make this deal work while also getting rid of guys like Anderson Varejao.

if that happens holy fuarkkk, Love even said he'd sign long term if LeBron is there
Kyrie/Waiters/Lebron/Love/Center
then Bosh to Houston with Harden and Dwight
and Parsons to Dallas

Lin's contract is really biting Houston in the ass now that Dallas has offer-sheeted Parsons for $12m.

Houston and Philly have a deal in place where they would take Lin's contract, of course conditional for LBJ + Bosh leaving Miami and Bosh heading to Houston for max $$$

I'd say Bron aint going anywhere. I feel that it just doesn't make sense for him to. To the Cavs? Why? To be at 30 years of age trying to build with that team where nobody has gone to the NBA Finals. It is not easy for an inexperienced squad to win anything. And Kyrie is gonna play off the ball? How does that gonna work?
I see the most likely case for him is sign with the Heat for an even shorter contract: 2 years 3rd year player option. The Heat have advantage in Pat Riley who knows what he's doing. Cut Bosh, sign Wade for a lot less and try to fill the rest with a mix of young blood and vets. If they manage to grab Gasol for cheap it'll probably be a steal.
As for my Lakers, I don't know. That Kobe's behemoth contract is working against them cap-space-wise. Money is not an issue for LA it's the cap space that is limiting them.

I'm sure they will also sign some vets if they do land james. We shall see.
As for the lakers.. I wanna see Isaiah Thomas on the team.. please!! :P

Again...
Kyrie Irving
LeBron James
Kevin Love
Ray Allen
Tristan Thompson
Dion Waiters
........who knows maybe even Anthony Bennett would step up and figure his shit out playing alongside LeBron....

Exactly.. now that's a team that will 100% make the Miami fans all of the sudden become "die hard" cavs fan and say they've been following all these players' careers since highschool haha :P I'm having fun bugging my buddy about this whole situation as well..I'd hate for it to end and him signing back in Miami good times!!

I bet the wolves are hoping James goes to cavaliers and they can get Wiggins out of this deal if possible.

I still think LeBron will end up coming back to Miami......He said he's done with all his meetings and whatnot....He hasn't even met with Dan Gilbert or the Cavs new head coach who hasn't even coached in the NBA before.....How could he possibly sign with Cleveland without talking to those 2 guys....

I'd put him closer to 11-12. This could potentially screw over the rockets big time... they have <72 hrs to match and within that time frame they have to dump lin and sign bosh. It will be interesting to see how things pan out.

I mean are they even able to follow lebron 24/7? Maybe he did indeed hasn't had a meeting with them but I wouldn't be surprised if he had them already.

Latest from Rotoworld news Quote:
Bath Ohio police are expected to increase patrols near Lebron James' Akron home on Thursday after 3:00 pm ET, according to Phil Trexler of the Akron Beacon Journal.
Trexler also mentions that an announcement is expected "tonight," although there have been no other mentions among media members about a definitive time-table for Lebron's decision. It is another interesting development in the Lebron James free agency saga. There seems to be a growing sentiment among fans and media members alike that James is preparing to return to Cleveland, but it's been mostly speculation to this point and only Lebron knows what his next move will be
|
It could happen today.. could happen in a week.. or 2.. or whatever lol.. I just want the domino to fall. the cops could be going there to protect the house after he announces he's going back to Miami lol
Imagine if breaks Cleveland's hearts once again.. that'd be pretty epic

Not saying they won't win. I'm saying they probably won't win right away. Miami didn't win right away when everyone thought they would.
I hope Cleveland don't get shits. They are disgusting. What kind of team who have had 3 of the last 4 No.1 picks and bunches of other high picks yet still stink. Bet you they will tank again and somehow get another No.1 or No.2. You think they have the trophy in mind signing a guy who never coached N/A basketball as coach.

I don't think any team with any amount of superstars could have beaten the Spurs this year...this year's Spurs team may have been the most efficient offense I have EVER seen.....and it was a similar thing that took down Miami in their first year against the Mavericks...
My point being that it's not always about the players on the team...There's no guarantees that a team loaded with star power is going to win the championship right away because there are plenty of other factors involved...but there's no doubt that a team with Kyrie, LeBron, and Love would have the best chance on paper to win a championship....experience or not...
