Who the fuck knows......

plugged-in source tells me there is a 90 percent chance that LeBron James will return to the Cleveland Cavaliers, and it will be announced on www.lebronjames.com if it happens.


That is my latest intelligence, and it comes from the same league source who told me Monday that he felt there was a 75 percent chance James returns to his original NBA team.
Remember this, folks: This comes down to LeBron building a legacy, which leads us to two points:


_There is nothing left for him to accomplish in Miami. He went there for four years, he went to the NBA Finals all four years, and he won two titles while learning what it takes to be a champion. Nobody can ever take that away from him.

_ A chance to return home as a successful, seasoned adult with a chance to deliver the city of Cleveland its first championship in any sport since 1964 is too much of a legacy opportunity for James to pass up.

_ And another thing: The best player he has a chance to team up with is named Kyrie Irving.



James traveled Monday to Las Vegas, and a source who has been briefed on James’ free agency maneuverings told SheridanHoops that James’ inner circle, from his wife, Savannah to his agent, Rich Paul, to his best friends, Maverick Carter and Randy Mims, are unanimous in their belief that James’ best move is a return to the team he played for from 2003-2010.

Bosh isnt going anywhere unless James leaves and/or Miami says they dont want him back...



U think Bosh is gonna miss 15mill when hes already made 100mill??? Dude he will make close to what Houston offered because Miami can offer a 5th year; He isnt missing no money...But Miami will become a player for Melo if Bosh leaves

How the hell you figure he don't miss money because he get a 5th year in Miami? U killing me acting like a rich ninja with money don't want to be a RICHER ninja with MORE money :smh:

Pooh still not recruiting

Give the team to Noah

Dude isn't a leader :smh:

Only him and that big bitch down in Houston acted like they were to good for that shit

Now that you mention it, Perkins got the same type of deal that Frye got.

At least Frye can give you 10/5.

Perk might give you 5/6 on a good night.

I seriously think Perkins is the worst starting five in the league. At least in the bottom five.
 



I think he's going back to Miami. But like they stated on ESPN yesterday....why does he need to have a meeting with Riley? He knows what the deal is...so why is he meeting? To tell them he's bouncing and have a final hand shake?? :dunno:


regardless...i think he going back to Miami.

All that hunger for a ring shit is over now...they already got rings.
I think money is a bigger factor now than it was in the past; for everyone except Wade.
All of them are either in their 30's or about to hit 30.
Lebron could get another max deal @ 34-35....but players like Bosh and Melo..I dont think so.

I think Bosh will sign with the Rockets first, then the rest of them will start choosing.

Dude isn't a leader :smh:

He aint a player to build around....but he's played the role of a leader more than Rose. On and off the court. Thats the point.

I honestly think Rose is setting the stage to say his goodbye.
He wont be back in Chicago after that contract is up.
 
LBJ, deng, gasol, wade, Haslem and other hasbeens to Heat
Melo to knicks.....
Bosh to rockets.....
Bulls get whateva...maybe Lance or end up keeping bum boozer (theres a reason why they havent amnestied him YET)

But those are my predictions.

I was referring to Rose as not being a leader

oh ...my mistake.

Maybe so. It would be the opposite of what he did to the Cavs when he left. Shake Riley's hand and have Rich post his decision to his website.

If what is being said about his inner circle is true, he must be getting bombarded with reasons why he should go to Cleveland. They probably went in on Wade and Riley's 'moves' from yesterday.

Yea that's what I think of the meeting....

I wonder what his circle had to say about the decision in 2010?


I've been thinking about this...


If James goes to Cavs, Melo stay in NY, Bosh goes to Houston, Mavs get Parson or Deng,
LA retain Gasol....Miami gets fucked, but somebody else don't get shit either...can y'all guess who that may be?????

I would give the winner some honey, but it's probably all gone!!!

You finding every excuse in regards to his inner circle..

yet you fail to see those same folk wanted him to stay in cleveland from the jump, you have to question whats his inner circle's agenda but of course we know you ain't gonna do that..

See his inner circle had cart blanche in Cleveland, they ran shit not realizing they work for Lebron who is the big fish in all of this... not them. In Miami they are nobodies, In Miami Lebron is the big fish... so its no surprise they are pushing extra hard for this.

Just like in 2010 Bron ain't listen to his peoples and made his own decision to leave.. and in 2014 he still won't listen to them and eventually make his own decision and it won't based on wtf his inner circle want

Can someone please post some credible quotes from his inner circle saying all of this suppose shit that they are saying...I cant find any quotes from none of them..
 
LBJ, deng, gasol, wade, Haslem and other hasbeens to Heat
Melo to knicks.....
Bosh to rockets.....
Bulls get whateva...maybe Lance or end up keeping bum boozer (theres a reason why they havent amnestied him YET)

But those are my predictions.



oh ...my mistake.

Nah, they said Boozer getting amnestied, Melo or No Melo.

They only holding off on the amnesty JUST IN CASE the Knicks change their mind about doing a sign and trade that includes Boozer. They don't want him tho.

They still prefer to trade Boozer, but ain't nobody taking that contract, especially when he can be had for cheaper after we amnesty him.
 
Keep saying his inner circle don't matter enough times I guess you will start believing it.

2014 and 2010 are different years. His legacy in Miami is set, 4 years, 4 finals, 2 chips, one of the most successful runs ever.

Now, with the chance to erase that one real stain on his legacy, I wouldn't bet against him taking the chance to do just that.

The league wants it, everybody who is not a Heat fan wants it, and most importantly I believe LeBron is the type of Dude who wants to be loved and adored, not just respected.

Best believe, if his wife is in his ear, he's out. He has no ties to Miami, but the chance to rejuvenate his home area, and a real hero, to people who were there for him and with him before he became the 'King', not a bunch of bandwagon fans, I'm not so sure it won't happen. He definitely has a greater connection to those people than any all of a sudden 4 years ago fans, and that love for his 'people' would far outweigh his Gilbert issues, believe that...

Everybody talking about what he is and isn't going to do, and what he would and wouldn't do as if it is gospel is fooling themselves, and don't know shit. Most of that shit is to make them feel better, mask their paranoid which is cool, I guess..

No one knows what he's going to do, but Cleveland is a very real threat to end the run of the Big 3 (even though D Wades knees have already put in work in that regard), and the sun may just be about to set on the Heat as we know it...
:hmm:

I'm open about this shit. When this first jumped off, I said it was like a .01% chance of him staying in Cleveland.

But then the strangest thing happened. Nothing. Riley hasn't been really able to do shit. Gasol and Deng ain't taking cuts. Hell, if Gasol wants to take a cut, he can join the team that just spanked the Heat(which knowing my luck he will do if the Cavs sign James).

So now I think the Cavs have a great chance at landing Lebron.

Coming out of the east isn't a problem. It's facing those west teams. If Lebron stays with the Heat, he isn't seeing a chip. They can't pull this off paying Wade and with that cheap ass Jew.

The Cavs then fuck up and do some dumb shit since Lebron is with the Heat(and trust me, they will). He then can't return 'home' and win one because they spent money on dumb shit. He is then stuck leaving the Heat in two years to chase a chip.

The Heat have to just ditch Wade or they see no fucking chip. Period. End of story. Will the owner pay a heavy tax since he is going to keep Wade??? :confused:....:hmm:


Gilbert would be like :money: :money: and that is something Lebron really, really has to think about(since now players will follow him unlike when he was younger).

If Lebron comes back, Gilbert will fuck around and buy a chip.
 
^^^^ if lebron stay in Miami he ain't seeing a chip?

Bruh i had to stop reading right there smh

Bron stay in Miami he will be back in the finals for a 5th straight time.. It's about getting to the finals to compete for a chip

Did u forget he has 2 already?

Riley signing McRob and Granger is suring up the bench with height and length.. Riley is lot doing signing yet bruh you being short sighted..
 
Hornets and Wizards are frontunners for Kris Humphries
Gary Washburn: #celtics appear to be taking themselves out of the Kris Humphries market, #hornets and #wizards are leaders, according to NBA source Source: Gary Washburn
 
I believe it has been asked before but as things heat up (no pun intended) - WHY can't Miami attempt to sign Melo for a Max deal - send Bosh on his way by just not offering him a deal and then say to Lebron here is the new Big Three and your Max deal and then give Wade the league minimum and a bag of balls?

Seriously though - you opt out there is no longer a contractual arrangement - THEY dont have to sign Bosh - Melo knows if he signs Lebron will come running? Tradeologist and Capologist - I need your expert answer on this - Thanks
 
I don't understand cats saying Riley hasn't done shit.
He replaced battier and Beasley.
The team was 3 games from a 3peat.
You're right why hasn't he added Chris Paul to run the point.
Fuck why hasn't he gone back and time and got wilt to play center so bosh can go back to pf.
Curse you Riley
Get off your ass.
I don't care if nobody can actually sign till Thursday,sign them now damn it.
 
One question have Lebron's agent met with the Heat yet???
I've been pretty in tune with the happens, but don't remember seeing anything about this.
 
mcroberts and granger are trash period

starting or off the bench.

heat had old trash

they didn't prove anything by getting young trash

Mcrob was decent for the hornets and played well in the playoffs

Now granger it is yet to be seen if he can somewhat return to respectable form

If Bron goes to Cleveland, he is in the finals for the 5th time. Who is stopping him?

As it stands, he might not win a finals appearance in either city in 2015. It's a gamble either way. But Cleveland gives him the best shot at 2016-2020.

Riley has never worked any magic in 4 years. This was all Bron, Wade, Bosh planning this shit when they signed short contracts with the 2010 opt outs. Riley couldn't even get the Jew to spend. Riley didn't develop jack shit.

So tell me exactly what Riley could've done to make u happy?
 
These superstar players can't be playing under these cheap ass owners

Lebron should leave off the strength of that alone

KD should be next

The way OKC is being operated is shameful
 
McRob avg 13pt and 9 Rebs in the first round

Those numbers coming off the bench is huge... U niggas up here down playing it like he trash status

Dude was good for Indy when they had him, lakers ain't use him right, went to the bobcats and has been solid for them

I don't see the prob
