    I would've edited the post, but it's already been quoted, so might as well own it.

    Especially since it's a scam that he profited off of, taking mortgages away from families with shady and unethical businesses practices. He deserves every bad thing coming his way like Trump.

    Dan Gilbert has a 51 win team in the Least.

    He's not getting another title any time soon, might as well get under tax line and cash in on everyone else's big spending AS WELL as cashing in on a free trip to the finals every season.
    Smart businessman.

    But people may switch to Slowen Loan instead, you never know.

    Probably deserves its own thread, but shouts out to the savant @justtxyank

    I think Gilbert is starting to resent Lebron. I honestly think he is kinda rooting for Lebron to leave.

    Gilbert didn't get any credit for the Championship and I'm sure that affected him.

    Do you realize how hard it is to just get to the finals? How many non lebron teams have been the finals in the east in the last 10 years? The rockets haven't been there in 2 decades. Guess how many western conference teams have been to the finals in the last 20 years?

    Oh this is a no brainer by now. He resented LeBron the first time around and he's doing it again. Dude can't take the blinders off to see that without LeBron his franchise is nothing. He needs to stick to comic sans and leave the basketball to people that actually knows the game or how to really GM
