I don't think you can get any worse than all 3 pro teams being bottom 5 in their respective leagues.

you guys do realize that a loss is a win right? the next lebron is in the draft, they just have to find him somewhere in Egypt or Afghanistan.

I actually think there is a decent amount of talent that is going to be available in this year's draft. No Lebron type talents, but definitely some solid guys to build around. There are about 4-5 guys I would feel comfortable with drafting #1

Yeah I agree, I think they should good a decent guy in round 2 also. Hoping the Cavs can use their trade exception to get another pick also.

Has anyone been to a game recently? Just wondering how much tickets would cost to see this circus. I can not imagine the price being over 50% of the face value.

Cleveland passed on Amare because they didn't want to give up JJ.

LOL

that's not true. phoenix dragged their feet (for the second year in a row) and cleveland didn't want to be left with nothing like what happened in 09. the cavs moved on to jamison once it became clear that phoenix was going to drag the trade discussions out until the very last minute and cleveland couldn't afford to wait that long.

I'm actually very ok with that. The fact that there aren't any LeBron like talents in this draft means that they will probably be drafting in the lottery again next year and can add another solid piece through the draft, setting themselves up better in the long run.

Took this from a Marc Stein article:

The Cleveland Cavaliers pursued Stoudemire hard in recent days at the behest of LeBron James, but pulled out of talks with the Suns Wednesday afternoon and swung a three-team deal instead for Washington's Antawn Jamison when Phoenix told the Cavs it wasn't ready to commit to a Stoudemire trade.

The Cavs have a special promotion for fans at the next game. The first 5 fans who show up at the arena....get to start.
