    I'm not bitter about anything.

    I just think it is funny to assume that anyone knows what Lebron James is going to do based upon who he is meeting with today, when

    1) LBJ was in Las Vegas for a camp anyway
    2) Riley was in Las Vegas for the beginning of the Las Vegas summer league in two days, anyway.

    He could want to meet to tell Riley that he's going to Cleveland or to ask Riley for an update on his plans to surround LBJ with more talent.

    Oh no you didn't! I was thinking this, too. I think I even posted something similar to this a week or so back! :)

    Exactly! "Do you know who I am? I'm MOE GREENE....!"

    On the eve of free agency signing day....?

    I'm sure it's just a coincidence.

    Who said it's a coincidence?

    There is a reason for the meeting, for sure. It's just funny to me that people claim that they know the reason ahead of time.

    Agree. Not to belabor this side show, truly, but you did basically claim to know, actually, when you incredulously asked why Lebron would ever meet with Riley to say goodbye. But whatever! Just a couple of hours to go... maybe.

    I just offered an alternative explanation, 180 degrees from the first, to make the "who the hell knows" point. Poorly, I guess. I don't claim to know anything about "decision 2", but I hope that he decides SOMETHING, soon.

    The Cavaliers are about to have the absolute most humiliating event in professional sports history OR they are going to look brilliant.....

    Resigning Kyrie Irving

    Pursuing LeBron

    Making caproom to give James the max.

    Trading for Kevin Love

    Or............

    Well, I cannot imagine how this is going to look for the Cavs front office if this doesn't work out. Trading for Deng... taking Bennet..... giving up a #1 to move Jack.... drafting all those other garbage players....

    Don't ever talk about decency and class when you have a team with Hibbert, George, and Stephenson on it.
