    I'd gain respect for Lebron if he were willing to come here alone and take on the challenge/pressure of turning around this franchise single-handedly.

    I'm still worried about his age/mileage though.

    Yeah f*** Paul George..nobody is gonna watch his whack a** documentary either.

    I'm glad LeBron doesn't give a eff about Paul George's decision...now LeBron will get either kawhi or cousins or both and you'll have to face LeBron for the nxt 4-5 years...good look PG13 ;)

    It’s a concern for me as well, the Kobe career ending injury looms in my mind. But, I don’t think he’d have to carry our roster night in and night out like he didn’t with Cleveland, also dependent on who else we’d sign or trade for. Our players like Zo, Ingram, Kuz, Hart, and hopefully Randle would all continue to improve as he ages too.

    Can Spectrum Sportscrap get rid of Chris McGee? His voice and face make me want to end civilization.

    I am so pissed right now, I can't think straight. If the Lakers had done a deal like this where the guy left almost 70 million on the table for opting out, EVERYONE and everything would have went after them in saying they did some s*** underhanded. How the hell does the NBAPA allow George to take 137 million when he had a 200+ million contract right there if he didnt opt out? Can someone explain this to me?

    And how is it not tampering when DeAndre Jordan opts out of 24 mil to get another 24 mil from another team? Where is the tampering there?!

    There was no defending of anyone going on. Just recognition that it was an unnecessary thing to do, and it only makes him look bad.

    Makes him look even more of a G to me!

    Btw this wouldn't be the first time Bron sniffed out a p****....he could have committed to The Land with a PG trade there, but didn't. Bron knew....dude was weak and couldn't roll with him.

    Thanks for waking us up to it now, Bron.

    That's the Cleveland beat writer. Further confirmation that LeBron was taking the shot at George. I was already on board, but now I want to crush George and I'm glad LeBron agrees.
