I thought for a second it said listening to a pitch from Toronto. I know this isn't gonna happen but damn when are we gonna be a bride.
Toronto is the friend with all the qualities in the world that no girl wants for no apparent reason.
"@Sportscenter: THIS JUST IN: LeBron James has reportedly fallen asleep at exactly 1:02 am/et. We will continue to show full coverage once he wakes up."

-He has heard rumblings that the Raptors have been talking to Lebron for months, well before they were technically allowed to
-There was a "report" from somebody he knows that Lebron will sign with the Raptors tomorrow
-He himself discounted the source saying he doesn't know that he can trust it
-He hasn't been able to get in touch with any of the big shots at MLSE to verify this
-BUTCH CARTER said months ago he thought it was 50/50 Lebron would go to Toronto. Bob even reiterated that he himself didn't think it was 50/50, Butch did.
He said several times throughout the segment he didn't actually think it would happen. He brought it up in a casual conversation and said he's not confident in it at all. OP trolled everybody, brother.
...dude is sending a message to rogers

50/50 chance LeBron attends Caribana.
100/0 chance LeBron drops 50 pts on the Raps sometime next season.

Are we that jaded here in Toronto that we do not want to even entertain the thought that a star / Superstar / one of the 50 greatest players ever would want to play here?
To speculate about h you have to trade in a sign and trade scenario is moot cause you give what you have to get him and that is that is regardless if you think it is good value or not. In the case of a sign and trade he would be locked up long term and we have ample space next year to be able to add further pieces as needed and the star power to attract those pieces at a fare price.
There are reports that LeBron was not committed to the Heat after meeting with them and there are several reports that he has not yet met with and of the key figures in the Cleveland organization. These are all just reports and may or may not be actually true but they are no more valid that the reports of him in Toronto in my opinion but I know that we each have our own BS tolerances on this forum
Until all is said and done I will hold on to the belief that we are a destination and a realistic option for the best player in basketball and we have the leadership to get him here. Here's hoping that we will be the Basketball story of the summer come 12:01am.
