Game #42 - Cavaliers @ Pacers - Jan. 12th, 2018 (Emergency Thread)

I think LeBron is pushing for a trade. No way he makes those bad choices in the last 4 minutes. Feeding it down to TT like 3 times in a row then taking way off jump shots.

Hate to say this cuz I’m a real Lebron fan boy.. but I think you might be right and I hate that he might be doing this.. cuz he really made some non lebron like decisions in the last 3-4 mins.. it just seemed so off for him.

For who?

I have no clue but I think he wants the front office to get something done, even if it means using the Brooklyn pick.

I know it goes against everything, especially with the way they've looked lately but I think they will go all out on Monday, nationally televised game and beat the Warriors, and then proceed to play meh for the rest of season and end up 3rd or 4th seed in the East.

Nationally televised regular season win for the Cavs? Nah, they'e getting lit up. IT should sit this game too.

It's passive aggressive LeBron. Who knows who he wants us to get but to me its clear he isn't happy with the roster.

Half court offense is utterly stagnant right now. Putrid the last 7-8 minutes especially, Lebron and Love make a couple of tough shots each but that little spell of force feeding TT summed it up.

Well I say fuck LeBron when it comes to that pick. He commits, I'm willing to trade that pick. Until then eat ass.

ZERO points in the last 3:55, just can't win doing that!

You have no shooters.

If he is, and they do, and then he bolts next year after backing them into a corner and forcing them too, then I will hire Shane Stant to kneecap him.

I don't think Lebron would intentionally play bad. For one, his shoe endorsement contract is worth many times his nba income - and if it affected his "image" as the best player in the league, it would be costly - more so than his team losing big but him playing well.

That pick is gonna be trash. The best they can do is Deandre Jordan

True. I was just saying it to vent about the possibility that the front office might panic, and it will lead to the cupboard being bare next year.

 

[Jstock12]

He was out. It's the right call.

^ This.

I'm not trading that pick unless it' for Paul George and LeBron stays.
