Maybe CP, but I think it's George, Westbrook, and Lebron plays third fiddle again.

3 ball dominant players, including the player with the highest usage rate in the NBA.

Are you fucking retarded?

For some reason I think Lebron ends up staying in Cleveland. He's got rings, legacy is pretty much set. I get the feeling that Klay will end up with the Lakers after next season joining PG

Lebron isn't going anywhere. I will ban bet anyone on this.

Oblio said:

He is under contract next year so obviously he is a Cavalier "next year." Does your offer include the following year? Also, I don't dis-like you as a poster so I would prefer an avatar bet.

Sure, we can do the following year on an avatar bet. That's a long time away though in internet time. Someone is going to have to remind me.

Oblio said:

I won't be upset if we never officially make a wager. I just wanted to tell you that I disagree and would not be shocked if LeBron becomes anything but a Warrior after next season.

Fair enough. I think Lebron is one of those types of people who wants everyone to like him. I don't think he realized how big of a hit "The Decision" would impact that. For him to bail on Cleveland again would be disastrous. At least that's what I keep telling myself...

I don't think LeBron is going to leave Cleveland.

Went to the parade. What a shit show. People were pounding liquor from the bottle on BART at like 9:30am. Oakland will be a rowdy place today.

Providing Golden State keeps the same roster and no one is run over by a bus or kills his wife, is there a realistic scenario in which transfers allow a team to be competitive with them?

Spurs already are, and things can change a lot season to season.

Spurs absolutely could compete. Their defense gives the Warriors problems. They just need to get younger. Teams like the Spurs aren't just going to wait out the Warriors run. They're going to make some moves.
