Don't bring it up

 

[kidkain]

Thanks for Wiggins Bron!

Can't say it enough

 

[pmatic]

You guys realize Cleveland wants to win now and they won't be able to afford anyone better than J.R.? They're up against the wall (err salary cap).

I'm fairly certain he's getting at least $8M per for two or three years.

 

[ill steelo]

Looking back on it, would you guys agree Cle should have kept Wiggins?

Bron was about to be on the wrong side of 30 so he wanted a proven player..... or he was just mad Wiggins didn't sign with his agency .Either way Bron didn't really want him on the team.

He's gonna keep signing what are basically 1 year deals until the cap spikes, so you have to do whatever he wants.

So Bron wanted Love, didn't care for Wiggins, and CLE isn't in any position to ignore him.

So whether they "should've" kept Wiggins or not doesn't matter because they're not gonna do anything to upset Bron.

So do the Warriors still win the chip if they traded Klay for Love?

Bruh, Bron is an asterisk ... People just ignore the stuff that he does as a person/teammate 

I remember when dude was decided to return to the Cavs ... Dude took a picture with most of his new teammates, problem was that he excluded Wigging and Anthony Bennet I believe ... but def Wiggings .. dude didn't want him period .. he don't like a rising start/replacement taking his spotlight .... 

 

[kn0wledgeable]

Wiggins wouldnt be able to develop with Bron.

I hope Love leaves though. I felt like Bron did Wiggins dirty

 

[NickFolarin]

At this point of his career and with his inconsistent play and actions, JR is going to get 1 year guaranteed (or 2 year team option) deals for the rest of his career.

Watch GS or ATL pick him up 

 

[earldagoat]

 

[noblekane]

Bron probably tricked jr into opting out. Probably told him he gon take care of him but he aint

Jr smith was straight cheeks in the finals

Lebron dropping that dead weight

Portland is finalizing a trade to send Nic Batum to Charlotte for Noah Vonleh and Gerald Henderson, league sources tell Yahoo.

Afflalo and Matthews gone?

 

[nick.]

look at Mike winning not 1 but 2 trades in the same offseason

 

[rook]

Batum for Hendo and Noah Vonleh?

Meh. I really like Vonleh potential. But overall great trade. I wonder if Batum will play the 2 then

[earldagoat]

LMA is basically a Spur

Congratulations, @Antidope!

 

[Truth]

Does that mean Portland thinks LMA is gone?

 

[Arthur Shelby]

Noah about to put in work for the blazers


Maybe

 

[pmatic]

Portland is about to blow it up.

 

[nelson999]

Portland is done for a while. Bout to lose Mathews, Batum, Afflalo, LMA, Lopez.

 

[addict4sneakers]

JR is going to get a 3/21. Dudes that shoot like him are a premium. And lebron is in charge. And when the new cap kicks in, that won't be that much of a financial hit.

 

[earldagoat]

Does that mean Portland thinks LMA is gone?

 Off to San Antonio to mess w/ Beard & Dwert.

 

[senorroboto2k5]

Portland is about to blow it up.

Damn...

Getting Vonleh and Henderson is a pretty good haul to fill the voids though. Not bad.
