Around the League: July 2014

[In2ition]

I agree, yet just this morning on Dan Patrick's show, his fill in said that over and over, while he was interviewing a Cavs reporter on how they were feeling and what this would do if by all indications he goes back to Cleveland. WTF!!!

[Sunsfan4life]

I rather see him go to cleveland then stay in Miami Honestly. I called this during the yr, but still don't think its a done deal yet. Melo not signing anywhere yet is a little weird. He was supposedly definitely going to make a decision last weekend...rumor has it he wants Bosh to take Houstons Offer so he can go team up with Bron and Wade in Miami

[In2ition]

Oh, I agree. I would also rather see him go to Cleveland than stay in Miami. I'm not a fan of Miami, or more specifically Riley.

[Ring_Wanted]

The Cavs deserve nothing, plain and simple. LeBron left because they sucked at building a roster around him. They sucked at building a roster without him too, but this time with 3 top picks and 2 #4s. What they have to do is thank god for The Decision, because if LeBron hadn't left that shameful way he would have nothing to amend. Funny how things work.

By the way, Ainge is pillaging teams once again. Zeller and a 1stR for taking a 7M expiring contract is pretty good value.

The cavs are a joke. What's really turned me off to them is Gilbert's letter being on their website for 4 years and then taken down 2 days ago. Why even leave it up for 4 years? Who's genius idea was that. Talk about not moving on...

[In2ition]

Yes, Ainge is sneaking under the radar again. If the Suns wouldn't have had a shot at getting LeBron, I could have seen them trying to get in on something like this.

That's incorrect. People are reporting that like it's fact. It was still up on an old version of the site that wasn't readily accessible.

Frye leaves his hometown team, where he grew up, played High School ball at, played at the in state school, and yet leaves town for a Florida team chasing the money. Why isn't everyone outside burning his jerseys and poster? BOOO, We didn't deserve this!!!!! Poor me....

Yeah, I heard it was stuck in the archives of the NBA database and the Cavs had to call the NBA offices to get it removed. It was only available to those with a direct link to it.

[In2ition]

Another thing, the Suns stuck by him for an entire year while he was going through a life threatening situation and paid him the entire year, while bring him back. How about some love in return? I'm totally unfollowing him on twitter and instagram. That will show him.

[Superbone]

Knicks are supposedly looking to move Amar'e and Bargnani to make a push for LeBron.

A little late isn't it?

[carey]

Pop is sticking around for a while.

Look out, Robert parish, tim's coming for ya!

I was listening to Le Batard's show in Miami for a bit while I went to pick up the kids. They are already freaking out (he isn't but all his co-hosts & callers) about LeBron leaving.

[TOO]

Good, I hope LBJ goes home, Cleveland fans have it the worst in all sports

[carey]

Cap set for next season at $63Mil. Still a ways off of the big increase, so that won't happen for at minimum 2 years.

Worse at what? Worst Front Offices? They don't even have a hockey team, boo hoo. They pick their players for the Brown, yeah Gordon and Johnny Football, once again boo hoo for them. They've been good in baseball. Yeah, they got it so bad, three #1 picks.

Can you tell I'm way over feeling sorry for Cleveland?

[TOO]

Nope.

[Superbone]

I guess LeBron to Cleveland is a done deal:
