I'm not going to break down if he is better or worse than David West. I know where I am deficient in sports knowledge and pretty much any non-Bulls/Knicks/Heat is where I am.

My point was that I don't think Bosh sucks, and neither does Houston, and neither does Miami. It's about the idea that Lebron had no help and was a one man team even though he was playing with 3-4 future hall of famers.

If Bosh is your third best player you might be ok. If he's your second best player you're not winning a title. There is a lot of truth to the notion that LeBron didn't have a lot of help this past year, but fuck him because he hand picked his team.

How is Cleveland going to react this time after Lebron strings them along and then doesn't go there?

Chris Sheridan tweeted that it's 90% that Lebron goes back to Cleveland and he will announce it on lebronjames.com

Here's the reasons why according to Sheridan.

I'm legitimately excited about him going back to Cleveland. When he screws them over again it's going to be pretty bad again.

The board did fine when I was a big Lebron fan before.

FWIW, Cavs complete three way deal which gives them enough cap space to absorb LBJ's salary.

A report said Cleveland was interested in Mike Miller too.

This is the same site, with the articles literally right next to each other.

Yes, but what is surprising about media companies trying to milk an event for all the attention they can get?

I know.

It is Sheridan's site though, and there is an article basically calling him an idiot for his reports. It's just funny.
