Press Conferences

If this wasn't Lebron's last game as a Cavalier, I will be the most shocked member of this forum.

I'll have much to say in the next few days, but what happened this series, I truly believe, was years in the making ...and this was just the final act of his Cleveland days.

You don't spend seven years with a guy, and all the sudden see another human being suddenly emerge about two weeks ago that you never saw befoere nor recognize.

One that now refuses to communicate with our head coach, asst. coaches, gm , or owner.

One that plays a game notches lower than at any time in seven years with us, with no tangible explanation.

Sumptin was up ....I expect this summer all the pieces will fall in place. But, as of now ...don't get your hopes up thinking that he's staying here, folks. This played out like this for a reason. We might not be able to fully understand it right now, because we aren't part of the equation that orchestrated it.

But, if being a guy that is very very skeptical when I see things that seemingly make no sense makes me a "conspiracy theorist" ..then throw that tag on me.

We just got played.

So, LeBron basically threw the Boston series??
Sorry, but I can't believe that. What I saw was a player that was defended well by Boston and who was clearly more injured than was being let on. He shot a horrible percentage from the outside and that was largely because of the elbow.
I think LeBron had 'issues' with Mike Brown's rotation as well as his offensive philosophy.
It could well be that LeBron ends up leaving. I know there's people in his ear that are trying to get him out of Cleveland, but that's really nothing new. However, leaving for Chicago, Miami, or New Jersey makes a whole lot more sense than leaving for New York.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am utterly dying to read an update from W&G...

anyone notice that paul pierce played a heck of a lot better today when LeBron guarded him? I think the energy to defend pierce, the elbow issue, and boston being better than anyone thought explains a good deal of what happened last week. There is still something else unknown though.

 

[nxmehta]

Anyone have a W&G bat-signal around here... it's been a couple of weeks!

The team is better off if no insider information is posted until after free agency and after we have a new coach. Too much is at stake for any information to get out that would tip off other teams.

Ehh Don't worry about that, Chris Broussard will make sure we hear some good info before it happens. and then doesn't.

If I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm actually not.

Didn't care for that last post of his at all. Not because it was seemingly bad news, but because it seemed - ok, I'm just gonna say it - embellished. I'm sorry, and maybe I'm wrong, and I know it was part speculation and blah, blah, blah... but that's the way it came across.

 

[dhilt28]

OK - So it's basically been a month - whats the news that W&G would like to talk about at a later date? I hope that he wasnt part of the whole front office change. That would not be good for us as we have been waiting day and night from his last post. Oh well...Let the summer cont.

 

[Karma]

Honestly can we quit calling out members to post. I'm sure when they feel ready to contribute something, they will. The constant "I wonder what ..... has to say" thing probably has the opposite effect on the guy.

 

[dhilt28]

He's an insider...i would say the same thing in BW would stop tweeting.

He get's paid to write stuff for you.

W&G doesn't owe you jack.

 

[dhilt28]

BW doesnt get paid to tweet - he gets paid to write. He does not get paid one cent if he tweets his thoughts on a topic. UR right W&G doesnt owe us anything, but when you post something like the last post - I do think that it is right to follow that up if you are looking for credibility - which is why he posts in the 1st place. Sorry bad argument all around.

He's not the only one on this board... if you're gonna call him out (wrongfully so, I might add), then you may as well call out Maximus, Ben, etc.


Give the man some space, and let him release new information and speculation as he sees fit.

IMO....

W&G is this sites Ace card in the deck. When they need to ensure maximum frenzy and interest W&G comes through and keeps this site moving at a high level.

At a time like now, they don't need him. There are articles and tweets coming in from well known local and national writers by the hour, as well as from players and agents. Its already a 24/7 frenzy.

I really believe, that W&G is a conglomerate of the Mods here. Nothing wrong with it, but especially with Ferry and Brown both gone, I truly believe that if W&G was actually someone within the Cavs organization or with close ties to the scouting or coaching staff(as he has always maintained), that we would have heard from him, even minimally, in the past 2 weeks.

What credibility is he looking for? I doubt he gives a shit if you or anyone else believes him or not. He will continue to give us what he can and its your decision whether to believe it or not. A lot of people appreciate what he brings to this message board, and to the ones who don't. Well, who gives a shit...
