    People who are saying Lebron is definitely a goner are the same ones that insist Melo is coming to Houston. Nothing but guessing educated off of BS rumors and sources.
    I think the most comforting thing about Cleveland as a destination is that Love and Melo can't both start, and I don't see Cleveland wanting Melo over Love.

    It's still so crazy how these top teams get even better through trade.
    Cleveland have such a solid trade package come February's deadline. Say a team like the Pelicans are nowhere near making the playoffs; and the Cousins / Davis combo isn't working. Demarcus only has a few months before he becomes a free agent, the BKN pick + Frye's expiring + Shumpert (he'll still have 1 year after this but that's pretty good) should get it done. Marc Gasol? Other names will become available too.

    I really should move on from this but damn it if only we had kept that 1st rounder in the CP trade I feel it would have made that much of a difference in our Melo pursuit.

    the same guy who says that Melo definitely isn't coming to Houston based off educated guesses is getting on people who are saying that Lebron is leaving Cleveland...lol

    Cavs are thinking about post LeBron.

    IT and LeBron will walk.
    They'll let Shump walk.
    They'll trade Love/Crowder/TT/Korver for younger players and/or picks next summer.
    Likely stretch JR.

    I'm down to sweeten the pot with Zhou Qi and Onuaku, if it facilitates a deal. We ain't in the position to develop young talent right now. We still got 120 left to go 1st. Give it a week.

    I assume that Morey has already offered to throw them in, it would be a little ridiculous if Morey was hoarding them

    Those 2 should be enough to try to get Marc Gasol. Marc will help this team more than Melo could ever possibly.

    U know. Lebron has been using the Rockets emoji a lot in his tweets.

    It's based on the belief that Rynos contract is viewed as a negative so it will not net us Melo.
    My main previous point was that it makes less sense because Kevin Love and Melo would have a difficult time sharing minutes rather than because "Lebron is DEFINITELY leaving" idea

    You said "it doesn't get it done against GSW"

    No in opinion form but basically as a fact. It wasn't speculation or a prediction you said the trade whether completed isn't enough.

    So again why watch in that case?

    Why even post about it?
