Re: Could LeBron leave Cleveland again?

Sun Mar 13, 2016 5:41 am

Don't tell me you started drinking and smoking cracks again. Last year's LBJ finals team was shit. The team featured Tristan Thompson as 2nd best player, JR Smith as 2nd best best scorer. In hindsight, LBJ fared much better chance with the Heat even without injured Bosh. And so called 'youth' isn't really turning into much again this year, isn't it? Irving wants out, Love is on trade block, LBJ is in shit mood. Yeah, 3rd best record, WOW IMPRESSIVE, lol.

Without LBJ, Cavs would be a .400 team. Look at heat. Just with Whiteside + cos, they're above .550 team.

Clearly LeBron should've signed with Milwaukee.

Clearly, he's going to the Lakers, along with Durant, and several other stars. The rest of the league is already trembling!

Yeah. Let's just ignore the team being devastated by injuries and yet still somehow putting a scare into one of the most dominant teams in league history.

Remember, the Heat wouldn't have had Deng or Dragic on the roster had LeBron stayed. Who knows if they even sign Whiteside being committed to the small ball.

Sure LeBron would have added enough wins to put the team in the playoffs because he's a fucking god-king but I doubt they tear through the East and could have threatened the Warriors with basically only six players.

benji, are we supposed to pretend everything disastrous happened if LBJ stayed put with the Heat because Riley is too stupid, and have Haslem, Andersen, Chalmers still as the key cogs going forward? LoL

How far do you think that roster would go w/o LBJ btw? You seriously don't believe re-tooled Heat that has proven built up chemistry for past 4-5 seasons would have been a better team? Fine then. I will ignore all the logics but praise Cavs team that gave a good scare lol in the Finals. Nice. they done what they supposed to do I guess.




Let's also ignore the fact that historical winning streak Heat team existed not too long ago. What could have been a historical match up between two historical juggernauts watered down to good scare Finals. Marvelous! Wonderful!

Why shouldn't we assume the injuries would still happen?

The Heat even played those three nearly the same minutes as the year before.

2014-15: 2368 (#2), 1132 (#7), 995 (#10)
2013-14: 2178 (#3), 1396 (#8), 653 (#11)

lol you seriously believe that team could have still been put on the floor last year...the #5, #6 and #10 players retired and were proved wanting before that...the #8 and #9 players are beyond dead men walking...Wade and Bash were battered

You're insane if you think the 2015 Heat with LeBron wouldn't have gotten vaporized like they had the year before by the Spurs against a healthy 2015 Cavs, the 2015 Warriors or the 2013 Heat. And that's pretending they get past the Bulls and Hawks.

Re: Could LeBron leave Cleveland again?

Mon Mar 14, 2016 11:14 pm

I am not saying the Heat would have vaporized the Warriors. But simply the Heat would have given a better fight than the Warriors with Love/Irving sidelined. 2nd and 3rd best players matter and don't you think Wade and Whiteside are legit?

Virtually any team with LBJ would have had the best shot reaching the finals in East. I don't know why you'd even bring up Hawks that had rough second half of the season and Bulls dealing with their own set of problems. That's simply a weak argument for our discussion.

Well, here's your proof right here, apparently: LeBron James Unfollows Cavaliers on Twitter, Instagram

Haha. I love the misleading title, presuming he followed them in the first place.

Maybe a slow news day D - Wade but LeBron does like to send critic messages via twitter and this is a pretty random thing to do

LeBron is the ultimate twitter troll.

That's what I'm thinking too. It's the kind of non-news that everyone's prone to seize and start speculating upon, but then again, it wouldn't be the first time LeBron's made subtle (passive-aggressive?) hints on social media. At the very least, he's perhaps feeling quite frustrated right now, given the Cavs aren't exactly tearing it up. We probably shouldn't read into it too much beyond that, at this juncture.
