The best team is whatever team Lebron James is on, and you can take that to the bank.

That statement is a fact? Are you really this fucking stupid? You have got to be kidding me.

Tell me what makes Cleveland any better if they don't get Bosh??

Without getting another major FA...Cleveland will continue to under-achieve and make early exits from the postseason

You stated the Cavs would not be contenders...just like the past 2 years. And I suppose the Colts weren't contenders last season either.

If the Cavs sign James....they will be favored to win the East. Period.

Yea...it pretty much is a fact

Anything less than resigning Lebron AND getting another MAJOR FA(Wade,Bosh,Boozer) will be a failure

Did they win the East last year??? No,therefor how can they be favored to win the East

Boston would be the favorite,with Cleveland and Orlando right behind them

Credibility is now gone for you. (What little you actually had). I'm not even a Cavs fan and you irritate me.

Do you think I really give a damn??

Mark it down...unless they get another Major FA to go along with Lebron(if he resigns),they won't make it out of the 2nd Round next year

Now he is adding Boozer to the major FA list, might as well add Lee to the list.

The world doesn't end with Bosh signing elsewhere, there are other players out there that would make Cleveland a better team with LeBron on it. Would I love to add Bosh, hell yeah but I have faith that Cleveland's roster will be improved for next season even if we do not land Bosh.

I thought not getting Lebron back would be considered a failure? You're telling me that if the Cavs are able to re-sign arguably the biggest FA in NBA history that their offseason wasnt successful?

I agree the Lakers were the best team this year. But only a cunt hair better than Boston. The Cavs were the best team the year before. In your line of thinking...the 69 Mets and the 68 Jets were the best teams in their respective sports as well. I suppose the Cavs weren't contenders the last 2 years either.

Never said the Cavs weren't contenders, I'm not gibby. I just think that if you watched the rest of the NBA playoffs it was pretty clear who the best team in the league was. Saying otherwise is just being contrarian or stupid IMO.

The best team was obviously the Lakers, the best player is still Lebron James, and he'll once again be on the Cleveland Cavaliers and you can take that to the bank.

It goes both ways... obviously signing LeBron is a success when others made very legitimate pitches to them, but if they keep the same crew (or something similar) him and they just continue to make it to the middle sounds of the playoffs it is a failure in the long run.

You would think they have to bring something else in for everything to pan out well.


I understand gibby isn't always credible, but some of you simply discount what he thinks because he likes Florida and talks shit about OSU.
Instead of flipping a shit automatically simply because he's a sheep for a college team that is different than the one you are a sheep for, read his posts. Every once in a while some of them do make sense, I swear.

I figure that Lebron did his thing, now any team that wants more meetings.....it will probably be with his entourage.
