    That last run of 18 games when we were 16-2 was pretty frikkin' sweet, but it's over now. It's as if we're a play-in team now.

    I suspect this is it for Lebron James too. I mean, the dude can still play at a ridiculously high level for a 41 year old: but does he want to keep going? He's proven everything he needed to prove. I seriously doubt we pay him what we wants, so if he's not ready to retire, what would the Cavs be willing to pay?

    Man, all I really wanted was a WCF team and I was beginning to believe we had that, but after this recent Dark Night of the Lakers Soul in OKC, I'm ready for a long-azzed summer and seeing how the management builds a deeper team around the slick thick Slovenian scoring machine.

    I think LeBron may actually come back but we will see. It would definitely come at way less than 50 mil.

    I expect us to be active on the free agent market but the draft will play a role as well. We could trade our pick but there a several big men I would be interested in if they dropped a bit.

    Gafford would be nice but I can’t imagine the Mavs trading with us again for a very long time.
