nikka this ain't selling drugs.. how you got a boss saying "what can we do to help you" and your response is "......."

for the third time... IF HE TOLD THEM, then that's cool.. makes sense... he told them.... now he waiting on their move... COOL




this whole fire towards lebron is the statement he REFUSES to talk to them... ok so he's just holding a regular old holdout right?? nah breh he's holding out to make sure his boy gets his boy signed..... ok so he's looking for a fair market deal right???? nah breh he wants them to give his boy's boy a max... then loop back around and give him a max.... after trading away for another player we just had to give a max too.... but this is just business right??? nah breh he wrote a letter saying how this was personal to be here..... oh ok but this is open to negotiation right????? nah breh he ain't picking up the phone :francis:




name 1 other athlete who ever even attempted to pull some shyt like this.... tell me there wouldn't be an 18 page thread if tony romo told jerry jones don't call me until dez is signed to a max deal asap or i'm leaving... shyt revis don't even do this much drama queening and he's a known cut bait for more money dude... bron playing the "doing it for the family" role while saying fukk cleveland the instant his lackey doesn't get 80 million dollars

come on we not talking about them not paying bron.... we talking about them being charged an extra 20-30 million for someone they don't want

Who said anything about selling drugs? :wtf: These are basic principals of business or dealing with people in general. It's a lotta players, shiiiit people in general, sitting around waiting for phone calls to get returned. That's life when someone else has the cards. When you have the cards you can roll a certain way. bytchmade is acting like a bytch when somebody else has the cards for once and plays the game better than you.

How do you know he's refusing to talk to them? What does he have to talk to them about? Why is him talking to them or not talking to them relevant to anyone but them? If it's such a problem and Gilbert is the boss why not make a boss move and tell that nikka to fall in line or :camby:? (Can't wait for the bu...bu...buts, cognitive dissonance, selective morality, or maybe even name calling :krs: on this if you even address it all.)

This ain't a Disney movie breh. Business people and politicians talk all kinda shyt to gain goodwill when it's really about power and bread. Here's a secret: If a person is a multi-millionaire and you never met them, they most likely don't give a fukk about you :heh:. Bron's got his bread and now he's flexing his power. If Cleveland didn't want Tristan then they probably wouldn't have drafted him 4th overall and they wouldn't have been trying to get him re-upped for more than a year and they are more than within their rights to let him go.

Bron could cure AIDS and there would be a platinum thread full of nikkas talkin' bout "He just did that for the attention" or "He ain't really cure that shyt it was them other nikkas that hadn't come close to cure before he got there that did it". Not many athletes have done a lot of stuff Bron has done. What's your point?

Man I could care less about Riley and other GMs. They will trade a dude and not even tell him. Dude will look or twitter and ESPN and see he was traded.

Let's not also forget the rumors that before the draft with rose and Beasley that folks were saying that Miami was leaking info that Beasley was a weed head so that he could fall in the draft and maybe they could trade back and get him and pick up a pick.

So I have no sympathy with Lebron treating Riley like a prostitute. Ain't like Riley didn't try to fukk Wade out his money either......and leave in the night like a thief to go to Miami and fax the Knicks a message saying I am gone.
They don't see that they see lebron flexing the power he has and they yelling what about the owner please think about them because they never do players dirty they have the loyalty that the players never can have .....

Hell Riley just took a meeting with LMA when everyone knew the only way to get the deal done was to sign/trade Bosh....
Dudes were like :yeshrug: it's just business.....

Same with the Wade ordeal....."let Wade keep bluffing and watch what Riles will do"...


But let the player show any kind of power and use it....he gets called fatherless, bytchmade, p*ssy,etc......:wow:

this shyt is corny man....

for 1.... bron is not flexing any power... he got them to trade away the number 1 draft picks for an all star with zero promise to come back... and he still came back... all cause lebron

he flexed when he left for miami.. he flexed when he ran back to cleveland


so lets again... talk about what's going on here



lebron james is the best player in the world right now... after a heart felt letter about needing to be home to feel complete, he got every trade and move he wanted... he takes a team to the finals... and they follow up by giving his guy, that he asked for, a max deal... also willing to give HIM a max deal... sucked him off and gave him everything he wants

so what does he do... and to answer you, i'm going off the article... so for now the 6th time, if the article is wrong, then all this shyt is mute....


but he opts out... and does he request to get good help?? a fair contract?? no no no... he's holding the very fanbase he wrote this letter to, to ANOTHER hostage situation.... why??? so his best friend, who happens to be an agent, can get an overpaid deal, and have his client stay on the team...


now why does this other black man need his hand held? why aren't any other teams knocking down TT door to give him a max?


cause he ain't fukking worth it... but is lebron pulling money out his pocket to say "hey i'll take less if you give it to him" nope.... i still want my max, but give a bench player the 4th max on the team and cripple us forever please..


and y'all celebrating this why?? cause he's black???

are you gonna celebrate in 2 years when they fukked over their cap, still ain't won, lebron leaves again, and they still stuck with TT???

how do they even know what lebron will do once they sign him? they might sign him, then lebron only do a 2 years deal... then they get held hostage again


michael jordan didn't even pull this type of shyt... again... besides JR smith (didn't hear a single one of you applauding his brother being signed)... NOBODY has done this... and when JR did this... y'all shytted on him, the knicks and anyone involved for falling for that dumb shyt... b-b-b-b-b-b-but this is different brehs


y'all out here like he asking to get kobe or somebody... we talking about TT... jordan didn't even do this for pippen and phil.. this looks dumb

Ok breh once and for all Jordan was getting raped by the jerry that man was getting 2 mil a season for god knows how long do you don't know what he would have done in this situation


Next what part of the money that lebron generates that you don't understand


And finally what would you sit lebron down and tell him..... Just take your money and be happy don't make waves don't think about your worth to this team and city. Be a happy negro and be happy with what you got and don't worry about the team the FO got it. Oh BTW just go out there and play and hope and pray wiggins pans out and let blatt call times outs when you don't have one and follow him blindly ......


Also don't say nothing when kyrie plays and 1 out there keep it to yourselve


Oh and dion is not a problem he will learn


Yeah that's a good leader that's what we got you back for......

Fukk dan gilbert and fukk you too if you think lebron owes him courtesy

Lebron should have them sign tristan thompson and then bounce to teach dan gilbert lesson for that letter

And lebron didnt leave to go home. He left because cleveland had the best combo of cap room, youth, and talent

:pachaha::heh:He has ALL the leverage......you think an owner who saw his bottom line jump 300-400 milly in the green based off one players return is just gonna let him walk because he may have to pay back 75 milly back in luxury taxes...

Where Lebron going if the Cavs don't sign who he wants? :stopitslime:
