Wait wait wait, wasn't Broussard the very one that said Wade and Spo would be at the meeting? Turns out no Wade and Spo is in the Gables? And now this new source lol.

This is all a publicity stunt to get Rich Pauls name circulating. He's looking to build some experiance and noteriety through lebron.

Lebron is not playing for Gilbert. Trust this.

If that was the reason, then yeah I agree. I really do think it would be more to repair his image or whatever since he cares so much about what people think of him.


If that's the case, then he should stop hiring his friends to run his career because free agency has once again not been handled well.

The fact that Elisburg is not at this meeting leads me to believe there will be some feeling of finality.

if all our guys take a 3 year deal with opt out after 2 years we could get someone nice in 2016
Let's say LeBron takes a short, two-year deal to stay in Miami and keep the pressure on Riley & Co. This is, potentially, the free agent class of 2016: LeBron. Durant. Al Horford. Joe Johnson. Al Jefferson. Joakim Noah. Monta Ellis. Danilo Gallinari. David Lee. Roy Hibbert. Mike Conley. Nicolas Batum. DeMar DeRozan (player option). Nene. Not bad.




Yes the cap is expected to rise too in 2016...

A big 4 could actually be possible in 2016 unlike now

And the fact he could only play 1 in 20 games.

Hindsight is always 20/20. The fact remained that we were paying a guy 10 million to be a cheerleader for the majority of the year. Yes he did make and impact in the Finals and yes he did play 82 games this year, but going into summer last year just about everyone agreed Miller wasn't trending in the right direction. I think many were justified in thinking that Miller would decline much the way Battier did this year. We also believed that with Battier/Lewis/Beasley our wing rotation would be more than good enough. Things didn't turn out as planned obviously.

I didn't support the Mike Miller amnesty, but there were plenty of reasons to justify doing it.


No, there was only 1 reason to do it, and it was to save Arison money. I'm sure Lebron knows it too as we've heard people say how frustrated he was with that move. You don't need Mike? Cool, trade him. Find something better. But he didn't, he decided to line his own pockets at the expense of the team.

How much money do you think Lebron has made Arison (and he Heat) due to his name recognition alone? How many times have the Heat preached sacrifice? How many players have given up money and bought into that? Kinda hard to not be upset at an owner who becomes cheap when the going gets tough, even though he's made much more off of you than the Miller amnesty save him.

In that case, after a year, how are they planning on paying to LeBron his max?


Cavs have max contract space for Lebron right now. That's what matters.

That's what matters to Cleveland, but not to LeBron.

Lets all see what happens AFTER the meeting. As others said. He probably does a two year deal once they meet. Its just overreaction based on Cleveland media, transactions, etc.

If LeBron leaves the meeting wanting to meet the Cavs then be concerned.
