Cavs sick of Lebron's shit

[A.E]

 
 
Two members of the team's top brass – coach Tyronn Lue and general manager David Griffin – have had conversations with James over the past few days regarding separate items. Lue spoke with James after Saturday's 122-101 loss in Miami, during which at halftime James was noticeably chatting it up with his friend, Heat star Dwyane Wade, instead of warming up with the Cavs trailing by 21. Griffin replaced former coach David Blatt with Lue in part to demand more accountability from James -- which the player covets -- and their chat was an example. Griffin's talk with James on Wednesday afternoon was a little more general, but was sparked by James' comments to The Bleacher Report that he wanted to play with Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Paul on the same team for a "year or two."

 
I think the Cavs are realizing the franchise can stand up on it's own & without Lebron. Lebron clearly doesn't like Kyrie or Love & I don't think he's getting the "whatever you want King" treatment in Cleveland he used to. Stephen Curry is stealing more headlines these days and that's huge hit to the ego. The situation implodes at the end of the season. Do I dare say Lebron leaves Cleveland again?

years down the line i think people are going to talk about how special lebron the player was, but how shitty his attitude was later in his career(or always was?).

Or how he was only really succesful when there was somebody of higher (Pat) or equal (Wade) rank who could set him straight and not allow him to try to run everything.

Absolutely. I think his legacy will see some tarnish because he jumped around so much. The era of FA makes it less likely players stay in one place for an entire career but in Lebron's case, an Ohio kid left his Ohio team without ever bringing in a title.

i dont think him leaving should be the issue. cant knock a man for wanting to win. but him coming back and clearly having too much say so in that team but not wanting the blame, is something you can knock. not committing fully is something people need to bring up too. of hes going to stay, just sign a huge contract.

He will never be immortalized like MJ in Chicago or Kobe in LA b/c he, as I predict, left Cleveland twice.

lebron the gm = jordan the gm

Get your hot takes, everyone, get your hot takes!

 

[buzzy]

LeBron is literally Hitler

 

[Pugz]

lebron has a vagina

 

[elcheato]

This notion that he needed Wade and Riley, or still does is hilarious. Wade and Riley were meddling around as an average team for years once Shaq left, while LeBron was mostly on contenders. The Warriors are arguably the greatest team of all time, which is the reason he won't be able to win a title here, not because he doesn't have Wade or Riley anymore.

So am I

 

[Hurricane Season]

I just don't get how he won 66 games with mo weeyums as his #2. How you gonna do that and not break records with Kyrie and Kevin Love and some other less shitty guys than that other team?

 

[elcheato]

He was a better player then, and the role players around him were perfect to run everything through him. Mike Brown ran a pretty good defensive system at that time as well

The Cleveland Cavaliers are 51-20 with a sizable distance between them and every other EC team. Toronto and Atlanta could give them a series, maybe Indiana because of playoff mode PG (but not likely). Cleveland will return to the finals and god knows, maybe it's Golden State who comes in hobbled this year. I think people need to re-fucking-lax, big time. Not you guys, obviously, but all the over-reactive analysts and dumb fans out there. Appreciate what you have while you have it. LeBron is simply being nitpicked. There's nothing more or less to it. Leave the fucking guy alone.

He 100% does it to himself

 

[elcheato]

He does some of it to himself, but people act like there is some ulterior motive behind everything he says or does, which is absurd

That quote about CP3, Melo, and Wade is from a while ago when things were fine with the Cavs, don't know why the writer waited until now to print it

Because the timing is right. Adding fuel to the fire while people are searching for negative Lebron stories. 

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Exactly. I'm not the biggest Lebron fan, but people are acting like he's JJ Watt. He ain't JJ Watt. 

 

[elcheato]

I don't know what that means
