Tristan Thompson nearing extension with Cavs for 80 mil.

Good GOD! He better thank Love for getting hurt everyday for the rest of his life.

How can the Cavs afford Bron, Love, Kyrie and now TT?

Cleveland has all the big men

Unfinished Business
Jul 1 2015

I'm going back to Cleveland.

After Game 1 of the NBA Finals, that’s when it really struck me. Sitting on the sidelines, I never wanted to play in a game more than that one. I had dreamed of playing in the NBA Finals and I just wanted to help my guys win. I couldn’t have been prouder of them as they poured their blood, sweat and tears onto the court.

Yeah, of course I’ve heard the free agency rumors. But at the end of the day, and after meeting with my teammates (it turns out pools are great meeting places) and with the front office, it was clear Cleveland was the place for me. We’re all on the same page and we’re all in. We have unfinished business and now it’s time to get back to work.

Dan Gilbert getting bullied 

 

[MVP]

Love 20 mil
Tristan 14 mil
Kyrie 15 mil

Cavs in luxury tax hell for the next 4 seasons, hope they get a title or of it.

 

[youngwolf]

how can some players have a max deal of 90mil while others have max deals of over mil? even when signing with their current teams. what is "max deal"?

Depends on years played in the league and, as was the case with AD, achievements.

TT was getting paid from the Cavs regardless Love getting hurt or not

Are the Cavs really going to pay Kevin Love and Tristan Thompson a combined $190 million? Doesn't even include LeBron's new deal...

Tristan Thompson dominating the boards against a couple smallball teams in the Playoffs has messed with yall's minds. Can't believe anyone thinks 80mil for that guys is anything but ridiculous.   

That contract is gonna look terrible in a couple years. 

 

[firstclass]

Love

TT :x :x :x

2016 champs

He wasn't getting $80 mill before that injury. Stop it

 

[lawdog1]

Really didn't see the Cavs keeping Love and Thompson. Good for them, I guess.

 

[MVP]

Oh and Andy still has to be paid 10 mil the next couple years. At Bron has secured 4 more trips to the Finals in the Leastern conference.

 

[brandon3000]

Isn't Dan Gilbert worth like $5 BILLION

:x

who cares what the Cavs have to pay. Just get us a championship

 

[rck3sactown]

I'm really enjoying everyone's takes.

 

[nelson999]

How the hell do the Cavs have the money to pay Love + TT 190mil and still have money to pay Kyrie & LeBron?

 

[Benny Hinn]

No real shock Love is staying. Said that 2 weeks ago.

Lebby, Love, and Kyrie on a mission. No doubt in their mind they wouldve washed GSW if they were healthy.

And they're right
