Lebron actually signed a 1 year deal, and is attempting to blow up the team's future

[unbreakable]

Really Cavs fans?

MAYBE IF Lebron signs a max, longterm deal with NO OPT OUT options.. then okay.. lets risk it all..

but we're cant risk it all and then this dude bails in a year! WTF

:mad: :mad: :mad: THE AUDACITY of this dude.. coming in and cleaning house after signing a ONE YEAR DEAL :mad: :mad: :mad:

Sad, but this is how pathetic the Cavs front office is. Dan Gilbert looks like even more of a loser now than before bringing in Jame's mercenaries.

I don't see him winding up being a 1-year rental, but if he does leave. Well, :roll:

[Meticode]

:roll: at all the people's insecurities above. Especially the original poster.

I did not know teams who had a max contract to offer were built

On principle I have no problem with LeBron leaving if things don't pan out after one year.

But, if the Cavs pawn the future by doing the Love for Wiggins trade to pair him with the dude he all but requested and then bolts instead of committing long-term, that'd easily be out-doing "The Decision."

Really? That would be hilarious. I don't think he would even dare doing that :oldlol:

[Mure]

You're a moron if you think LeBron will leave Cleveland again. And we gonna act like Wiggins won't bolt Cleveland in 4 or 5 years anyway?

Contrast that vid with the brazen way he left. PR suicide is something an older LeBron is more cognizant of. Case for giving up Wiggins centers around winning a title and not keeping Lebron, imho.

He can't leave in the near future way he publicly presented himself and his rationale for returning.

Mhmmm.

[oh the horror]

We'd be morons to think he'd hold a tv special to announce he's leaving Cleveland.


We'd be morons to think he'd leave Miami.

Face it fellas this guy punks franchises.

[imdaman99]

He went to Cleveland because he can call the shots, in a way that Riley would not allow in Miami.

This guy is full of himself. Can't believe we have to watch this fool run the NBA :facepalm

[Dragic4Life]

Heat fans in denial. Still shook by "The Letter".:roll:

I could see Bran leaving to the Clippers next year if the Cavs don't make the finals.

I would laugh so hard at the sorry state of Ohio if they trade Wiggins and Bennett for Love, then next year both of them leave.

[cavsfanatic]

Lebron signed a 2 year deal with a opt out so he can make the max again when the cap rises to 80 million when the tv deal kicks in.

Oh tell me again how Pat Riley didn't cater to Lebron when he drafted Napier when pg wasn't one of their weak points at all.

Are Cavs fan secretly hoping for Dan Gilbert to come out and say that if the team doesn't compete within the next 3-4 years, he will step down as the owner.

[robert de niro]

Did Dan Gilbert make "The Plan"? ...Or did Lebron make "The Shatter"...

No because then we'll most likely get stuck with a cheap owner like most of the teams in the league.

Teams in Cavs conference: "You got back together with your ex?!?"

Cavs: "But, but, but she really loves me this time. We talked about it."

[ZMonkey11]

btw, this would be the most ultimate of trolls.

From the posters like you we were reading how Lebron came back just because of the bussiness aspect and his image and money. Factors like him and his family coming home, trying to do the right thing etc,... should completely be ignored.

So yea, you would be moron if on one hand you are saying that he came back just because of his image and bussiness aspect and on the other hand you are saying that he's gonna bolt out after 1 year when, if that happens, he could literally just kill himself since he would completely destroy his image which was repaired a bit when he announced he's coming home. It would be 10x times worse than Decision.

So yea, it's pretty stupid to say that he came back just because his PR team saw an opportunity to raise his image on the next level and at the same time say, that he would leave Cleveland after 1 or 2 years which would totally kill his image and reputation.
