    Maybe ESPN paid Lebandon the difference he would have lost for leaving Cleveland for doing the "special", I hate ESPN. But i totally agree with Gilbert when he called Lebrag's tv show "narcissistic".
    I am a fan of comcast and the blazers making deals that keep screwing us over!! woot!

    Actually it's being reported that his marketing firm got 60% of the proceeds while the boys and girls club got only 40% of it.

    I think this letter is a bit over the top... Its not like Lebron didn't fulfill his contract.  He was in Cleveland for 7 years, he does have a right to leave.   CP3 said it best... "So when a free agent leaves he's a traitor but when a team cuts your ass its part of the business?"  I wonder if Lebron went to Chicago or NY, would CLE still be this butt hurt?  It will be interesting to see DWade, Lebron and Bosh play together.

    However, I do have to say I dont agree with the ESPN hour long tribute to Lebron "The Decision"  What a waste of time.

    Nah uhhh a defensive center, a backup big either position I don''t care, an experienced wing, without having to give up any draft picks. I''d probably do this but I just don''t know for sure.

    Rebounds are over rated and so is JJ

  5. A question that could have team implications if it were to happen.

    Started by BrainLL1 on 05/14/13 at 1:34 PM

    I completely agree he could be that voice on the court we need. Lamarcus just isn''t that guy and Damian can learn some on court leadership from him. A small lineup when we need a score bad of Dame, Wes, Paul, Nic, and Lamarcus would be potent.

    I mean Damian might have not even been in the same area as them when it happened. Innocent until proven guilty
