Why don't more people realize that the Cavs, already really good, will be even better three months from now? Only 5-to-1 odds to win the title? Really? Even in this crummy economy, with ticket sales about to drop through the basement, the Cavs can't blow their LeBron Window for one reason: If they win a title, he might stay and save professional basketball in Cleveland. Money is no object. They don't care. And given that they have $20 million worth of expiring contracts (Wally ...

  • If Lebron had a half decent supporting cast, Cavs would dominate for years

    I'm sick of hearing about Lebron going to the Knicks. I find it disgusting and offensive to the Cleveland Cavs franchise and their fans. It's a black eye for the NBA and illustrates the Association's obvious and unyielding favoritism for big market teams over smaller market teams.

    Other than being in bigger market and getting a ton of money, why would he want to go there?

    Dear Cleveland Cavs Fans,First and foremost,I wanna say Sorry for your pending lost,because as much as Mr.James tries to play it off that He hasn't made up his mind and even though he is trying his Hardest to be Politically Correct and focus on the season at hand,Let's Stop Fooling Ourselves in 2010..
    Mr.LeBron James is gonna most likely end up in either New York or Brooklyn?? (Does anyone else find that weird to say?) But let's face facts this ain't about Loyalty to his homestate of Ohio,it's about "BUSINESS".
    LeBron James is on the conquest to be this Generation's Michael Jordan marketing wise,Not Basketball wise,I'm saying you heard him say it himself,He wants to be a Global Icon,and being in Cleveland isn't gonna happen,so in a smart business move it would be in his best interest to go play in a Big City,I'm trying to be a Hater in fact I'm a fan on LeBron as well and can appreciate how Love the fans have for him,But you gottta see it from a Business point of view and to be honest it's not about Loyalty no more it's about that Almighty Dollar..

        I understand that sports is a business, but how exactly is James going to make more money in New York than in Cleveland? It's not going to be from his contract with the Knicks. It's going to be from endorsements. But can't James endorse all the same products in Cleveland, as easily as he can in New York (they have these things now called air-planes and this other thing called the in-ter-net.) Also, after nearly 2 years of hype, if James does bolt to New York City, who outside of New York is going to buy anything he pushes? James will be universally hated for his lack of loyalty.

        You're right, chances of James becoming a Knicks is high, but I don't think it's a forgone conclusion.
