    He would have to be going out of his way to top the Decision in a display of a lack of self awareness

    Woah. I'm guessing that's a Cav's first rounder? (since Brooklyn doesn't have one until like 2029).

    If for some reason the Cavs don't get Lebron now, they just did a super bone-headed move. Karasev & Zeller were worth at the very least two 2nd rounder.

    This move would be the equivalent of trading 3 draft picks for cap space. One of which has the potential to be pretty damn good (if the Cavs suck next year).

    Also the pick might be one of the ones owed to them from Miami, which might have increasingly good value if Lebron & Bosh leave.

    Cleveland better know what they are doing here. If they aren't 99.9% sure Lebron or another All-Star is coming, they just did something very very stupid.

    Imagine Cavs fans today at their desks trying to get work done. If I'm being challenged with all this I can only envision my situation X 10.

    Would Cleveland's added hate to LeBron be justified if he does not go to Cleveland since he has given no indication, personally, that he is going to the Cavs?

    No way Cleveland deals a 1st rounder and a bad but not that bad contract away without getting LeBron.
