You have a point guard that is a proven shooter, ball-handler and scorer who can take some offensive load off of LeBron. His defense is shaky, but he brings a LOT to the table. Then you have Wiggins who IS a proven scorer. When you play him alongside LeBron and Irving, the pressure of him to score 30 a night which was thought when he just went to college dissappears and he can play his natural game. There's also Dion Waiters, who if not a part of the team could easily be traded somewhere else. I see him as an ideal 6th man because of his scoring ability. Then there's the much improved Tristan Thompson who is likely to come of the bench as well because LeBron would probably play the 4. Tristan Thompson AND Dion Waiters of the bench. Awesome. Oh yeah and then there's the crazy guy named Varejao. Rebounding, defense, all the other things Bosh couldn't do in Miami, he can. And he doesn't even need to score given the fact Cleveland would have so many offensive weapons, but is still liekly to score 10 a night. Gee and Miles would be veeery useful as the 15-20 minute role players, and even Bennett could contribute in a way if he gets his shit together.
Let's go to Miami.
Wade is certain to come back, but is declining and bailing more and more because of his body. Even if Bosh does come back you are right, LeBron is 30. It was clear this year he needs some more help rather then being an one man show. Bosh still brings no defense and rebounding, which in return demands LeBron to play every aspect of the game to the max, sucking his energy up every play to the max. Beasley is an idiot, Cole and Chalmers are nowhere near the level Irving is, Allen is inhuman but is 50, who do you haveleft? Oden? Granger? mcRoberts?
And you still can't see which team is the better fit? And yet I'm Delusional and my posts are stupid ?
You should've had left it at that.
NovU please.

Wiggins is not a proven scorer. He hasn't yet to play the game in the NBA. Even in college, he was subpar scorer. Have you even glanced at his stats or watched him playing actual game?

Jabari Parker was better. McDermott was better. Even Wiggins's teammate Embiid out-shined him on his own team. Even then it's usual for a rookie to take 3-4 years to develop and actually start to contribute. Even that was the case for LBJ.
The problem is it's just too hard to buy any of your craps. Sorry.

You look at the situation, it makes more sense that he stays put in Miami. He met with Riley and crew personally but never had a meeting with the Cavaliers and has no plan to either. It's said that he has all the info he needs to make a decision now. His agent did make a contact with the Cavs though if it means much to anyone. As for the Cavs, they're trying to lure LBJ but at what leverage do they have? Irving's a big question mark still in development. And the roster is super thin. This team FAILED to make the playoffs and came short in every possible way. They simply aren't even a playoffs team in EAST:shake:. Remember the media fucking with CLE on how they fucked up any chance at getting LBJ back? That was until just two weeks ago. Also ask about CLE's cap situation, you're paying many scums great money. You're possibly looking at at least one wasted year for LBJ in terms of contending at the highest level though it's possible. The Heat are an instant winner over the Cavs even with salary.
"Hey but Wade's done, he sucks! So he's better off in CLE." - Sure. But Wade opted out, Bosh opted out next, and are willing to take less to improve the team that made to the Finals 4 seasons in a row. Would you ditch that for the Cavailers that isn't even a playoffs team?
Kevin Love: The Cavailers simply have to give up too much to land Love. And if LBJ doesn't come, it'd be all for nothing. If Love was a condition for LBJ to sign with the Cavs, it'd make more sense for LBJ to have more serious talk with the Cavs but he so far had ZERO meetings with them. The Cavs need to deal for Love first and tell LBJ "Hey we got him, you come now". Cost of it would be too much and risk is too vast.
If ever, LBJ decides to return to the Cavs, it'd be more for sentimental reasons. So far the media has made too much out of it as they have nothing better to do. Most signs are still leading to the Heat retaining the trio. Even Bosh has no deal in place with the Rockets yet despite the hype.
I have a feeling too much's been made out of nothing. LBJ 90% hype is just silly. It's more convincing that this is more of LBJ pressuring owner and Riley to do something and break their bank account for once ffs.
