    Notice they also have an article ready to go that says "LeBron James leaves Heat, signs with the Cavs" in the Quick Click section. Writers do this. They get stories ready so that they can put them out quicker.

    But he has a 'verified' twitter account. Does that mean that someone would consider impersonating him?

    Why? Press releases are pre written with multiple versions.

    I agree. He fits in perfectly which is how you can justify overpaying him. In the end, a championship is priceless.

    Just trying not to get bummed out if we miss out on him.

    Yup he is the cap expert I was talking about a few hours ago... makes me think James is staying in Miami.

    Nope...J.R. and his complex progamming detected them within the Matrix database and flagged it.

    Who has cash left? Lakers? I doubt he signs up for a life with Kobe. Miami? I'm not sure Pat offers a max knowing that Mcroberts and Granger won't replace Lebron. Mavs already spent part of theirs. Bulls never really had it and I still don't think the owner amnesties Booxer. The rest wouldn't get a callback because they stink.

    That pretty much epitomizes miami and its relationship the heat. One sentence but everything else stays the same. The sun will shine tomorrow and their fans will go back to being apathetic. There will be little to no anger over this, if he goes to CLE.

    The writing on the wall is written in pen that LeBron is leaving. Just sit back and enjoy the show, everything has already been decided.

    Miami, Phoenix and LA are a few off the top of my head.

    Gordon Hayward got 4/64 .... someone will find a way to get 4/85 for Bosh.

    Seemed inevitable didn't it?

    Wiggins/maybe Bennett/etc. to Minny for Love/etc. just seems like a deal that's too good for anybody involved to pass up.

    There is literally no reason why this deal shouldn't happen (if Lebron is truly in play of course).

    I wouldn't read into it.

    Riley would be remiss if he didn't lay out for LeBron what he had planned, who all was gonna get what, etc.
