Has any other player pretty much controlled a franchise like this? Even Jordan dint call the shots right?
Jordan used to make demands to the Bulls front office and they just ignored him and did other shyt... lucky for him though, because he was out there suggesting some dumb shyt anyway. :dead:

LeBron is bringing in a new era out here of the star player just controlling everything. There's been examples of this before, but nothing quite like Bron... most superstar players before have just been content being employees.

They forgot to mention how badly Miller, Shumpert, and Smiff performed when it mattered the most.

Like, worse than 2nd string on a lottery team bad.


LeGM
You forgot to mention that they weren't brought in to play the roles they played, and had Love and Irving not been hurt they would have been looked at as great pickups.

I dont really think this is going to be an "era". This isn't happening in organizations with stability up top

believe everything u read on espn brehs

ESPN is so full of shyt. They literally made an article of everything windhorst talked about on their shows over the last year. Not only that but they don't mention that windhorst was wrong on a lot of things such as love not coming back and that he and Lebron didn't meet in LA. Then when folks on social media were saying they saw them together windhorst went on the defensive and acted like he knew what was going on.

Another thing this is why NBA fans want the NBA off of ESPN. We have a great season coming up but these hoes want to talk about off court shyt like they have every year since Lebron left Cleveland.

When Peyton was on the Colts he was pretty much the coach.I remember he told Dungy to tell the punter to get off the field he was going for it on 4th down :leon:

Now this is true. He was the OC and same in denver and told Elway what players he wanted.....but you know a star white QB having that type of power is all good.

So ESPN if Lebron is doing all of this wink wink per fat ass windhorst. And the lil midget running the team supposedly let Lebron do whatever he wanted the first go around in Cleveland. Why weren't the Cavs able to get players to come there then?

What Lebron GM skills got better being under Pat Riley's wing? He went to GM university in Miami?

So ESPN it is believe able that Lebron runs a whole team? Should we also believe NBA (owners and commissioner) set up the lotto to make sure that the Cavs got the top pick 3 out of 4 times Lebron was not there? Why do I have a feeling they would say the NBA draft being fixed 3 out of 4 years isn't believable.

Yeah Krause would tell MJ to hit the door. Now in saying that Krause is the idiot that said players don't win championships teams do. And the bulls ain't been back to the finals since 23 and 33 left.

It's lebron James, I'm pretty sure he has some deal to get a part of ownership when he retires.

He said the Thompson thing was a distraction, a week later the two sides agree.

Lebron been to 4 straight finals

Now the part ownership part I am positive of. You know he made the lil midget pay because he would get all the benefits of Lebron coming to Cleveland.
