    I was thinking the lineup would be more like Davis/Gordon/James/Griffin/Kaman
    I would trade the pick. Remember what LeBron turned Carlos Boozer into? Well just imagine what he'd do with athletes like Griffin and DeAndre Jordan.

    He's going to turn them into conniving traitors?

    That's what I'm thinking. If Delonte is still on the team and Lebron is not, you can almost be certain that those rumors hold some merit.

    LOL.

    I'm also convinced no one really knows more than anyone else besides a small circle of people.

    It's an easy way to get everyone to pay attention to your article or show when you say you have some insight on Lebron's plans.

    So, you are saying the franchise has a choice to make? This is a no-brainer. You keep the franchise player and the mom.

    Mr and Mrs. Delonte West-James

    Lol, if that's the case, the entire city of Cleveland needs to form a mob outside of Delonte's house, and catapult him out of the city like in medieval times.

    An agent just told me that LeBron James won't be returning to Cleveland from what he's hearing. Lines up with what @jalenrose is reporting.

    AlexKennedyNBA
    The agent hadn't heard about @jalenrose's tweet but said he wasn't surprised based on what people are saying in recent days.

    I'm sick of the speculation. Even if the report true, Lebron's probably a fickle person and will change his mind several times during the course of free agency, just wait until the courting begins.

    A 3-man of Wade, LBJ, and Bosh seems very unrealistic to me. That team would be so stacked I don't think winning a championship would even be competitive. These guys are competitors and I can't imagine they'd want to win without having any other team even close to being a worthy rival.

    A championship is a championship. If they won 5 rings straight they would ALL be mentioned among the greatest ever.

    If you're a competitor, that's what you want.

    Isn't this the same guy who said we would finish 14th in the West last year?

    Same guy also tweeted this after that


    Von Wafer, who has known LeBron since the two were McDonald's All-Americans, tells me with confidence that James will return to Cleveland.

    Cleveland at least has as good a chance of keeping Lebron as losing him. They can give him more money, which is always important.
