2014-2015 NBA off-season Lebron goes home thread.
I will update this when the schedule is announced in a couple of weeks, but I will open with the new uniforms for the Charlotte Hornets below.

I'm sure the Kansas fans will get a kick out of this. I would post it in their thread, but I got banned because they are butthurt about Iowa State becoming relevant in basketball. I ordered a Cavs Wiggins jersey today. I have a James and Irving one too.

I don't know much about Vonleh or Hairston, but the revert back to the Hornets and their uniforms and court theme is a total win in my book. I started getting into basketball back when they had Mourning, LJ and Bogues. It was a good time to be a beginner fan of the NBA in my opinion.

ESPN is reporting that LeBron is not going to settle for less than max money this offseason. Teams that contact him will have to offer a max salary. The teams that can do that are the Mavs, Lakers, Suns, Jazz, Sixers, Magic, and Heat. That means Wade and Bosh would have to take the financial hit to keep the Heat together.

Lebron shouldnt take anything less then the max right now. He did that once already. He's the boss of bosses right now in the NBA. Its HIS TIME. Its been his time, but he was playing on a discount. I can never get upset over an elite player getting what he deserves in his sport.
Wade and Bosh is the 2 that need that super duper discount because they have fallen the **** off. |

They won't. Heat have to overpay since they were nice enough opt out. They'll still make 30 million combined and the Heat will be stuck with these losers for multiple years. It's perfect. No room for a guy who can make a real impact with LeBron.

No but if I was worth millions I may think about it. It does happen. I wasn't was referring to pay though. Didn't he already have a max deal.

I've Been as critical of LeBron as anyone. I appreciate that he is being direct vs stringing a team along, as he did last time. And I think it is crazy to expect anything less than max value. If he stays with Miami, I respect that too because he shows an interest in loyalty vs. rigging the system.
I can't blame LeBron if this is what he's thinking. I'm pissed such a shitty fan base gets the benefit and I can't stand Wade, but this is another sign of big time maturity on LeBrons part. |

Now LeBron is even getting criticized for wanting max money for the first time in his career? He still wouldn't be getting compensated anywhere close to his actual value to a franchise due to the salary cap, but apparently that's too much. The guy will just never win with some.

If no such agreement existed then he is perfectly fine demanding the maximum pay allowed. We may never know if such an agreement existed. |
