    Tristan Thompson is being a serious tool.. but

    do you have a better team to go to?

    are you remotely interested in being part of a team,
    that could go dynasty?

    he saw three contracts go Max, and he wants one..
    who wouldn't ?

    but you kinda have to start an All-Star Game before that is a possibility

    Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love have both started All-Star Games..
    Irving won the MVP in one of them..

    Thompson is great, but not a max contract.

    that said.. i think LeBron made a mistake by going Max himself, he should
    have led by example here (like Tim Duncan) and taken less...
    show other players that unselfish play is "all-season long"

    if he takes $15-20M a season, then throw that extra dough at TT

    What is a max contract this summer will be much less in future years -that's why he's a max player. Seems greedy to be holding out over supposedly small details though. Reminiscent of the holdout between Varejao & the Cavs the year after they went to the finals.
