This ain't a good look. I just don't see the sense in going back to Cleveland. The roster is still trash, still a totally unproven coach and inept GM, not to mention how does anyone with any self respect play for those fans and that owner after the last 4 years. He's either a much bigger or smaller man than we all thought if he does. If Cleveland is the choice, winning certainly isn't a priority. That ring count would end at 2.

no. 1st, the Cavs actually have the Heat's draft pick for next year. They can still bring Wade and Bosh back and possibly surround them with some talent to at worst compete for a 4th seed and in the East you never know. But tanking ain't apart of the deal

The Heat 's 1st rounder for 2015 is top 10 protected., while it's top 10 protected in 2016 if Heat net a top 10 pick in '15, then it's unprotected in '17. Realistically Wade has 2-3 years left, get top 10 picks for the next two years, then gear up for the 2016 FA(KD; :noah:, Horford, Batum, Conley, etc) and send Wade off in glory. Not too mention Riley tanked before in the 07-08 season when Shaq missed most of the year, so he's not above it.

As I said this is all a power move by Rich Paul


Why would Bron being in his prime with maybe 4 years at peak production

Go into a situation with a 1st year coach that doesn't even know the NBA, an often injured Kyrie that has never played in big games and a non dribbling non shooting rookie.

This shyt reeks of a smoke screen

their roster isn't trash. They have 3 of the last 4 1st overall picks on their team. They have high potential imo, but are they a lock to get out of the east? I don't think so, not this season anyway.

you're thinking with your head, His fam/boys aren't[/QUOTE

But Bron is his own man. He knows what it is


Refer to my last post

I forgot to mention the GM.

How could Bron trust a executive more than Riley

Riley got that nikka to 4 straight finals, 2 ships and 2 MVPs

Spo created an offensive that maximized Lebrons efficiencies


I'm not buying the Cleveland stuff
