Sounds about right.


Sorry, but Suarez = Green. History of bad behavior with teeth/groins.


Good point. I can't believe I missed that :lol:

Not terrible at all. In fact, in that case he'd just join the Cavs next summer as a free agent. :D

Is it possible for another team with cap space s&t to the Cavs?

Like could some random team (Bucks/76'ers/anybody with enough space) sign and trade Wade for Shumpert and Frye?

If James wants Wade so bad he should take a pay cut on his base salary. With the amount of money James makes off endorsements it wouldn't matter in the long run anyways.

Is it possible for LeBron to take a paycut so Wade can sign?

D Wade's in Europe. His agent might have taken a flight up to Cleveland (probably to use the Cavs to scare Riley into giving Wade the third year). The only way this happens is if we trade Shump and both LBJ and Wade take significantly less than they can currently get. I would call that possibility remote at best.

I enjoy trolling Heat fans as much as the next guy (I do feel badly for some dude named Iggy who the rest of their board is convinced jinxed them) but this is really unlikely to happen.

Wouldn't surprise me while I get why people assume Warriors will just win the next 5 championships none of the players on that team have proven to me they're champions. "But the Warriors won the championship in 2015" Yeah where every team's pg was injured in the playoffs, then while they deserve credit for coming back from 3-1 on the Thunder they blew it 3-1 to the Cavs, and Durant played poorly in game 6 and was a key reason GS came back on the Thunder. To me they all have a lot to prove.

Having said that, guarding them will be a nightmare.

Wade probably just needed a lift to Milwaukee.

wade is an idiot if he joins lebron and the cavs to build lebrons legacy, u know the same clown who opt out of his miami contract and left to return to cleveland, where wade did the same thing and nearly loss 20m opting out thinkn lebron would return with him to the heat to continue what they started....

Because he's won 3 rings already and he can get paid big time. Wouldn't be that smart on his part turning that much down. If its similar then sure

Cleveland should try and make this work, trade whoever needs to be dealt outside the big 3 or even trade Love for someone on a lesser value who is still very very good (there are a few teams that could help with that, aka Boston)
