Just spoke to Dwyane Wade, who was all smiles, he didn't say much except "Life is good."

At this point I think Lebron already has made his decision and he's chilling. Notice dude isn't saying shit, doesn't plan to say shit and doesn't give a shit.

He's instagrammin and tweeting like he ain't holding up a worldwide billion dollar industry. It's the last thing on his mind.

In all reality NOBODY knows but him.

There's really no decision to make IMO. The Heat are the best team in the East with you and they can offer you the most money. Cavs makes a lot more sense basketball-wise but shit if we talking max money than that's the Heat who can offer the most. If he signs some 2 year deal....still his best bet is the Heat.

Imagine Wade as OKC's Manu Ginobili. Obviously it isn't happening because Wade isn't taking a midlevel deal, but still. Fun thought.

one point to note about this whole thing. A lot of people claimed the decision was a whole attention whoring stunt.

This time around LBJ hasnt said a word and I am pretty sure the amount of coverage and attention his silence has gotten has been even more deafening.

And if he leaves Miami the internet carriers gonna have to add more fibre capacity cause those traffic pipes gonna melt

The only reason they are the best team in the east is because of LeBron. Shit, who do they have on their roster as of today? D Wade will not be improving physically, and everyone else on the team is a year older. I wonder how it's a foregone conclusion that they are the best team every year? LeBron makes any team in the east damn near the best team in the east, and unless they are able to pull a major coup, who is there to add or who have they added to avoid another ass whipping in the finals? What good is it to make it there, only to have your team and you counterparts fail you and you get your ass beat? Next season, Cleveland may not win a chip, but at least he won't have to deal with the constant revolving door of players, trying each summer to find pieces that fit!

Don't have a dog in this fight, but it's really not THAT cut and dry that Miami is the best team. Where ever LeBron decides to go is the best team in the East, hands down! :hmm:

#Bulls trying to figure out how to close. If Carmelo has been agonizing for more than a week, who knows where this will go.

CLEVELAND CAVALIERS
Roy Hibbert a Big Trade Option for Cavs?

Today might be moving day. Does Chris Bosh move to Houston? Does LeBron James let Pat Riley know that he is moving back to Cleveland? Or does Twitter explode from everyone hitting refresh all day long? For the Cleveland Cavaliers it seems like a few moves might be up their sleeves as they look to bring James back. First and foremost is moving Jarrett Jack‘s contract to free up space. The other could be a move for a big man to play with James. We have covered possible moves for Kevin Love, Chris Bosh and Al Horford. To read those click their names below and they will open in new windows:

Kevin Love Chris Bosh Al Horford
Today we take a look at a different kind of big from the shooters above. Today it is Roy Hibbert. The big man who gave James fits over the last few years seems like he might be on the outs with the Indiana Pacers. According to a Sporting News report the Pacers are quietly shopping him:


“They’re open to making major changes, if they’re there,” one general manager told Sporting News. “I think they’d be disappointed to see that same core group back intact, so it is a matter of, how drastic can the changes they make be? Moving Hibbert for multiple pieces would be a pretty drastic change, but they’re asking.”

Sounds like they have an idea of what they are looking for in a move for Hibbert. They are also struggling through contract negotiations with Lance Stephenson. For the Pacers a trade with the Cavs could make some sense. Adding Dion Waiters, Anderson Varejao and a pick could allow them to move on from Stephenson, still have a defensive center (though far less shot blocking) with more range and a pick to continue to upgrade their roster through the draft.

Hibbert’s fit with the Cavs looks a little different then the other big men we have mentioned. He would instantly provide strength and shot blocking in the post. Yet throughout the last season and the playoffs he could quickly disappear. At his size he should never go a game without a rebound but he did that a few times last year. He would then have games where he would look dominate on both ends of the floor.

The Cavs new offensive system will be built on shooting and floor spacing which Hibbert gives none of. Yet if paired with a stretch 4 his offensive limitation would be minimized. He could be used to set big screens and roll off of those for interior scoring that is still needed in the league. As the floor gets spaced Hibbert will have room to operate in the interior. Tristan Thompson and Hibbert would struggle to share the floor together.

On defense Hibbert along with James and Andrew Wiggins would be a lock down defense. Wiggins and James would guard the 2 best wing players while Hibbert roams the paint. The 3 high caliber defenders would take pressure off Kyrie Irving and whoever played at the 4 spot, Anthony Bennett could be an option next to Hibbert.

Hibbert’s contract has 2 years and $30 million left on it which fits along with the rest of the players that the Cavs could look to add through other moves. It also limits the long term commitment to Hibbert if he doesn’t fit with the team. The Cavs would need to move similar salaries so adding Scotty Hopson would be added to make the salaries work. The Pacers may ask for another player or pick but if David Griffin and David Blatt see Hibbert as a key piece that shouldn’t be a problem.

Carmelo just realized he showed his cards too soon. “Hey, I need to milk this a little more … tell ‘em Chicago is cool."

Very true. But his camp can't seem to stfu. They leaked all this Cleveland shit. Hell, just about 15 minutes ago a Cavs insider on Cleveland sports talk said Rich Paul is going to have to talk less in the future(whether directly to sources or to people who run and blab). And that's with Paul releasing info that people here consider in our favor.
