The NBA is at the bottom of my favourite sports, so I take this with a grain of salt and not with a vested interest, but if this was someone from my favourite team, right now I'd be pretty disgusted at the whole ordeal. I couldn't imagine what would be going on if it was Jarome or Peyton Manning pulling a similar stunt.

ESPN is making it quite clear that they are no longer interested in being involved in journalism. This is pathetic.

does this really need to be a hour long show?

Just get your rich ass up on the stand and say "I'm going to Miami and I'm going to dominate the league as long as us 3 are together"

Enough of this what if what if what if crap...

I can't believe they bumped the Women's Poker World Open 3 for this.

god how cliche are these answers gonna be when he gets interviewed? I'll start the count with, "it's all about winning"

Also I don't like Chris Broussard at all.

The reason it worked for the Boston Celtics is because they had an actual leader in KG and no egos. Not the same

And Rondo. He was the key.

Love that Bill Simmons article that was posted a while ago. A great read, and I couldn't agree with him more: what a slap in the face to the people of Cleveland if (when?) he comes out and decides via national television that he's going somewhere else. Like Simmons, I think that LBJ is such an egomaniac that he couldn't see that.
