Because he's a 6'7" human being and the iphone is a tiny device.

Something really scary about that picture.

Acting like LeBron, Irving, Deng, Varejao, Jack, Thompson and Waiters wouldn't be one of the best teams in the league.

They would have to get rid of Brown, though. He is a huge part of the problem now.

It wouldn't

Bron + Varejao and a helluva lot less than that was in the mix for 3-4 years, before LeBron was even this good.

You don't think giving him Irving and Deng would be a bit of an upgrade over Mo freaking Williams? AND he gets Jack, Thompson and Waiters?

The Office style camera work makes it even more funnier

Why would Bron go from MIA or LA to Cleveland....all the women, $$$, the weather in those places Ppl forget Dan Gilbert still running that franchise and the Cleveland is a ghost town sorry

 

[kevin cleveland]

There's a salary cap, though. And Luol Deng won't be cheap, as he turned down a 3 year, $30 million from the Bulls. For the Cavs to be able to even maintain a max salary slot, both Jack and Varejao would need to be moved.

Therefore, the aforementioned team cannot be assembled unless LeBron were to sign a deal for Cleveland with a starting salary of about 14 million (not a chance in hell).

They could have LeBron, Irving, Deng, Varejao, Thompson, Waiters, a lottery pick, Zeller and Karasev (two rookies that they have signed for cheap next season) for ~$65 million. The luxury tax line this season is $71 million. It's possible to have those core four and competently fill out the rest of the roster.

I'm not a Cavs fan, and I don't particularly care where he ends up, but the disrespect is comical.

That team, plus his family, and his hometown being 30 minutes away and all of that irreplaceable ****... totally plausible that he comes back.

i know that but the iphone 5/5S is pretty big phone'

was just saying. must suck for athletes to use

 

[urbetterthenme]

Deng would do well in LA.....

 

[pmatic]

Nope.

 

[urbetterthenme]

I'd take him over jared

Outside of the cash, I don't understand why the Pelicans traded for Taylor when they have Pierre Jackson killing the D-League.

I know he and his agent have been looking at trades, but still.

No.

Davis is not 1st team.

Where's L. Aldridge?

PG24 is 1st team

 

[kevin cleveland]

The Pierre Jackson thing is pretty weird.

 

[CP1708]

I like PG, but 1st team over whom?

Who am I supposed to remove? Dwight certainly hasn't been better than Davis or Cousins this year. You could make the case he should be there instead of Hibbert because he has more offensive value, but Hibbert is the best defensive player in the league and the main reason Indy's defense is light years ahead of the rest of the league.

 

[JD617]

Davis is not 1st team.

He is, and I think by the end of the season more people will realize this.

 Where's L. Aldridge?

No disrespect to LMA but the forward position is loaded.

 PG24 is 1st team

Cool, I'll just remove either LeBron or Durant.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Pierre Jackson is tha goods.

I don't understand why he can't eventually be Isiah Thomas. Hes more athletic and a better shooter.

 

[jsindaa]

Im not saying he's coming back, because i don't really think he will because of Mike Brown. ( i did mention his security told me he wants back though, but thats just hearsay)

But your 100% wrong about cleveland not being home for him. His kids/wife were still here the first year he went to Miami. Rich Paul and all his boys are still here and not leaving. IDK how often he kicks it in Mia , but he seems to like being around his boys and out at the club with them (they throw/promote parties here).

Bingo. On a side note though, you know there is a huge difference between here (Akron) and Cleveland lol.

 

[dman14]

arent all nba teams just the best 5?
