    Wouldn't get Lebron a bleeping backup PG (Lebron said so anyway)
    Wouldn't give David Griffin a legit extension
    Is trying to dump players to save money under the luxury tax
    Lost out on his first (only) replacement choice because he wouldn't offer more money than Billups was getting as a tv analyst

    Also, he didn't buy the 2nd round pick that the Warriors did.

    You are calling Dan Gilbert cheap when the Cavs have the 2nd highest payroll in the NBA?

    Nah... Dan Gilbert is just being Dan Gilbert.

    BTW, Bill Simmons' podcast with Morey today included Bill reading a Rocket Mortgage by Quicken Loans ad and some bantering about how Quicken Loans is owned by Dan Gilbert. Morey jokingly asked if he gets a Quicken Loans mortgage, will it help Dan Gilbert spend more on Cavs. I wonder if it's just an innocent joke or if Morey knows something. After all, there was this Shumpert for Non-Guaranteed Contracts trade talk leaked to Woj.

    Unless people stop asking for loans he will never be in financial trouble.

    WHICH IS NEVER.

    You're right. I was more than slightly inebriated at the time of post. While I think Dan Gilbert is scum, I def don't make it a practice to go at kids, especially handicapped. Apologies to all that were offended.

    His son has neurofibromatosis. A condition that causes tumors to form in the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.

    Type 1 can cause bone deformities, learning disabilities, and high blood pressure. Type 2 can cause hearing loss, vision loss, and difficulty with balance. Type 3 can cause chronic pain throughout the body.

    Appreciate this. And the lesson is nobody should post when they are drunk or high. Way too much of that going on here.

    We ve all said worst and more offensive stuff at least a couple times in our lives. Im a firm believer that apologies matter. You did the smartest and most mature thing that anyone is capable of doing when you admitted it was a cruel post and doesnt represent you as a person.

    I agree with @basketballholic that maybe we shouldnt post when we are tippin on foe foes lol. Because not everyone is open minded and understands that words dont define someone. I wouldnt be surprised if some more judgmental posters stupidly define you by that post now lol.
