    This is typical, LeBron ALWAYS gets a pass. Just like somebody said above......if he loses it is his teammates fault, and if he wins it's all his credit. The same way everybody left Chicago the 2nd time when Jordan left well, everybody also left Cleveland & Mia when LeBron bolted.

    They said the same thing last yr. If he wins he passes Jordan as greatest ever. He lost.
    I guess he gets another chance?? Next yr they'll say the same thing. LeBron never gets docked for losing because when he loses it ALWAYS somebody else's fault!!

    History will read this correctly. Tremendous talent that never lived up to ability in the playoffs.

Wasn't it LeBron himself that demanded Cle management pay his buddy JR Smith the maximum he was allowed eventhough Cle management didn't want too??
    Wasn't it LeBron himself that demanded Cle management pay his buddy Tristian Thompson the maximum he was allowed eventhough Cle management didn't want too?? These two moves strapped Cle financially & essentially took their cap flexibility away last off-season. They didn't have a realistic shot at any impact players last season because LeBron strapped them by demanding his buddy's get paid. Cavs payroll was already maxed out.
    Pretty obv why Kyrie bolted.
    Cleveland management has actually done a fantastic job of somewhat cleaning UP after LeBron strapped them. It doesn't matter though cause when LeBron bolts next yr to the next stacked team all the nuthuggers will once again give LeBron the pass & claim management failed to build around him.....It's laughable.
    LeBron clearly is the one making the decisions in Cle. When things go well he's the "greatest ever" when things don't go well it's Dan Gilbert & the other players fault. Just once I want to see/hear LeBron & his nuthuggers step UP & take responsibility when things aren't going well.....Just once!!

    So you expect this "core" to stick around with Lebron when all other players have ran from him? okay

    No Einstein, where did I write they should go after Lebron? I wrote keep the younger core there and they will be real good.

    I say don’t bring him in just keep what they are doing. Well except the Fultz pick.

    I misread the comment. If the GM has his eyes on the long term he will not let Lebron anywhere near. Lebron will take his job and screw the 76ers up for another decade

    I've seen many times over the years the LebFan saying Jordan had a great coach and Lebron never had one. One thing they all failed to mention is how Lebron always chooses who and what he wants. He doesn't want to be controlled or told how to play. Imagine Lebron been told to read a book on the triangle offense.......lol
    He love it this way.
    Playing more minutes than he needs to (Stats padding), made the management pay guys like TT, JR etc, fired Blatt, controls narrative (SAS knows this better)......He has many loyalist in the media group and they are all pushing the he surpasses Jordan bullshit.

    Nope. GSW is a well run franchise... Lebron will ruin the 76ers. A Team does not play well when they do not like their leader.

    Good point mags

    Why would they not like him?

    He will not be the stud there

    They have a stud point guard and center

    I will not disagree that 76ers have a few young studs... but who is kidding who? If Lebron would go there he would suck out all the oxygen in the franchise... the clout that was once shared among a few rising stars would be gone in the time it takes for the press conference to announce the news. If there are any Philly fans thinking they want Lebron to come, I think you are misguided... but I am more than happy to sit back and watch it happen and laugh my ass off like watching a train crash.

    If Cavs play Sixers first round then Cavs can easily lose that series

    Another home loss for these losers.

    Did they really think Jordan Clarkson was their answer to the finals?

    No it management decision to get Rodney Hood. Thats teams mistake. He was to be a starter. He's not good. I guess.

    Tyrone cLue is horrible. Dude sucks the life out of this team. He tells them to go fast, when they are old and tired and can't instill a simple offense or defense. He doesn't even have practices and he expects them to play well together??? Fukking clown.
