I'm guessing this is billionaire's equivalent of a rapper making it rain in a strip club.

Yes, I'm sure we'll hang up the conference champions banner like other teams do.
How did your team go last year? I hope it was well.

You have Lebron, and pretty much he is the one who is paying the salaries.His agent, himself understand he brings in 75 million in revenue for the Cavs organization. So he is using that to push your owner to sign more and more.
Part of reason also, why everyone on your team signing before Lebron.As he wants to hold the power of 'not signing' in case you dont go the Lebron way.

I personally don't care how a millionaire spends a billionaire's money. The fact of the matter is that Dan Gilbert made $1,500,000,000.00 last year.
The Cavs currently have 100,398,932 committed to 9 players. Assuming they either use the Haywood deal or bring back Smith, bring back Delly, use the MLE, and fill out the roster with minimum contract players, they will be at about $117 million dollars. Based on a $83 million luxury tax threshold, that will see him paying $104 million in luxury taxes.
So he'll spend about $221 million on the players next year on a Revenue of $150 million. $70 million outlay to secure a $400 million increase in franchise value; fair deal; about 5% of his annual income.
All those numbers are beyond my comprehension, not my concern.
