David Griffin and Cavs are parting ways (directly affected trades?)

Bron never had any issues with going to the West. It's extremely rare for top players to move conferences one reason or the other, what's the last elite player you can think of that willingly switched sides? Off the top of my head, Shaq, and he was forced off the Lakers. KG colluded to get the Celtics formed, Melo just wanted to get paid and live in New York, and there might be some other names Im missing but the point it's very rare.

I assure you his decision making won't come down to fan-created narratives.
i get that, my point is his best chance to get the finals is out east, unless he plans on going to GS lol im not saying he's taking an east route but I see no team out west he can go to now to compete with GS

Ballmer has fukk you money, I highly doubt itd be the only star he'd get. Maybe they get PG for one year so he's already used to the LA culture for his future in the Lakers. Melo, Butler, James Johnson, there's options

People think Lebron gives a fukk about the gm :mjlol:

The whole LA narrative that will now be hyped up even more is just as stupid

Unless Bron doesn't give a fukk about winning anymore and wants to relax in LA he's not going anywhere

Cosign all of this shyt.

This is the same GM that LeBron kept telling that he needs more help. Not to his face but to the media and people think he gives a fukk about that dude? :heh:

If LeBron actually went to the Lakers you would be winning 55 games and possibly be in the Finals:what:
This is absolutely false, the Lakers do not have the pieces Lebron likes to play with. He would end up trading half the team like he did when he signed to Cleveland.

He didn't even 55 games in the east this year with 2 all-stars, he's not carrying a bunch of young, unproven guys anywhere in the west

If I'm Paul George I'm making the Lakers guarantee they won't sign Lebron. He would kill his brand and they still wouldn't win anything.

aint no real power forwards in the league anymore so both of them playing forward is fine.
The Pacers tried it and failed and he bytched everytime he had to do it. He's not going to want to play somewhere he has to do something he doesn't like. He clearly doesn't care about winning either.

Said on SportsCenter earlier today that Dan Gilbert has never given an extension to any of the general managers he's hired in the 12 years he's owned the team

this is true, which is why after hearing a few days ago they had not come to terms, I knew Griffin was out.
