LeBron: "I'm here for the long haul. I would never waive my no-trade clause."

LeBron gonna paint Quicken Loans with that G.T.T.

 

In a vacuum it's a pretty fair deal. The decline in value from a 33 year old LeBron to a 28 year old harden is made up by the fact that we are getting a 29 year old all star in Kevin Love in exchange for a overpaid scrub in Anderson. Furthermore if we bet on LeBron having a superior postseason this year to Harden, then it's a move that would improve us short-term.

 

You've got stuff backwards dude. Kyrie left the Cavs because he saw all this dysfunction coming. He KNEW LeBron was out of there after this season.

 

[Windhorst] “Teams were calling to try to gauge whether Lebron was prepared to waive the NTC by Thursday and that’s why Lebron felt he had to say something...There are teams out there that are willing to put together packages for Lebron in the next 24 hours; that’s been put on hold.” (streamable.com)

 

We need @Codman @ch44 & @cyberx to fill us in on the situation.

LeBron says he won't wave the NTC but he could just be posturing. COULD LEBRON BE A ROCKET TOMORROW?

 

Great GARM thread lol

 

No. Cavs are not listening to offers for LeBron. And if they were I think other teams could put together a better offer. It would take a miracle.

 

Sweet. Then he's here in the offseason.

 

What/Who do you think is the primary cause of the dysfunction ?

 

My guess as an outsider would be IT. The body language between him and LeBron is terrible. LeBron didn't even shake his hand after the game tonight.....he went straight past him to JR and Osman to celebrate.

 

You're assuming it's all IT because of that? Dysfunction existed before he arrived.

Are people really arguing LeBron's heart and leadership might not be the slightest bit suspect ?

Because it seems it obviously is. He's in the highest of high maintenance category.

 

If not then F it, on to plan B Morey!

 

Forget Love. If we get LBJ we don't want to poison the well with existing relationships and baggage. Dude needs a completely new start to enter a new phase of his career.

 

No to Lebron. I don't want Houston to be the third franchise he leaves in shambles after a 4 year pitstop, just for the chance at title/s he's going to get all the credit for anyway.

 

But what if Lebron tells the Cavs he will waive his NTC only if he gets traded to the rockets?

 

Still comes down to whether LeBron would move there. If they are hell bent on dealing him and he wants to go its basically wherever he wants to go subject the the Cavs getting enough back in return.

 

Then assuming we can come up with a deal the Cavs like id say its a done deal

 

“...long haul.” = Until July

 

The front office & Dan Gilbert.

 

the dude is leaving, with all that mess and dysfunctionality in Cleveland he has to leave unless they go on a great run and come out of the east which I highly doubt
