Per ESPN Cleveland's Tony Rizzo..

The Cavs have a trade offer on the table with the T-wolves for Kevin Love in exchange for Andrew Wiggins.

This is a great deal for both teams. No way Minnesota keeps K-Love after next year and if this brings in LeBron, its an obvious win for Cleveland.

I've now heard the Cavs are pursuing Mike Miller too.

Even if LeBron stays with the Heat, the Cavs fans should be proud of the effort that's been made.

Long as he doesn't rent more TV time to announce shit this time around, I really don't care.

i wouldn't trade Wigging for Love unless i knew for sure we had Lebron in the bag.

ESPM reporting that the Cavs are also after James Jones, a LeBron favorite.

Chandler Parsons is their next target if LeBron goes back to Miami.

I can't stand the NBA, but I am enjoying the drama.

Even Cedar Point is getting in on the Lebron recruitment.

Remember the part in Storm of the Century when the dude has to give up his child to the demon to save everyone? I could see the entire city of Cleveland offering up their firstborn for a championship in damn near anything.

Donnie's still not done.
"Make no mistake today," Sterling shouted toward the end of his second day of testimony in the trial to determine his wife's right to make a $2 billion deal to sell the Clippers, "I will never, ever sell this team and until I die I will be suing the NBA for this terrible violation under antitrust."

Stranger must be happy.

Too bad Lebron's going to get injured this year.

"When I left Cleveland, I was on a mission," James told SI. "I was seeking championships, and we won two. But Miami already knew that feeling. Our city hasn't had that feeling in a long, long, long time. My goal is still to win as many titles as possible, no question. But what's most important for me is bringing one trophy back to Northeast Ohio."

What a backhanded statement. "Yeah, I got the fuck out of this place because you're all perennial losers. But I, your god, lord, and master, have returned, and I'll see if I can shake one trophy free from my sleeves before I bail on you suckers again."

I've texted him all day and received no response. I was worried, but then checked his woman's FB page, and they were in Cedar Point all day.

I'm sure he's now masturbating watching ESPN.

In different news, fuck the MSM trying to pretend Miami fans are acting better than Cleveland fans did when LeBron left.

Miami fans are notoriously shitty. They don't support their teams, and the Heat couldn't sell out until LeBron came. When your city is nothing but fair weather fans, you're not likely to get much emotion out of them.

I though he heard about the LeBron trade and maybe went off to celebrate David Carradine style.

Yes, I was outta town when I heard the news.

I never once doubted his comeback. I called it a year ago.. didn't I?..?

I'll be totally satisfied when I see a championship tho, its really what all this is about its been waaaaaay too long.

Either way its an exciting time for us Cleveland fans, now its time to go party David Carradine style!!

True story: my sister-in-law was working the bar when he came into town for a convention about eight years ago. Said he pulled up a chair, asked for a bottle of Remy, and paid with cash.

I came to this thread just to see if you were talking about Lebron. Such big fucking news around here.... they are even talking about renaming the Raptor at Cedar Point, "The King James." I will never call it that any more than I call that renamed bridge in Toledo "The King Bridge." It's the Cherry Street Bridge. On Cherry Street. Named after some guy, not the fruit.

But anyway, it was my impression that this guy was perceived as a huge butthole. Why all this excitement?

The entire population of Cleveland would felch whatever pro athlete spearheaded a championship run.
Cleveland has waited longer than any other city with at least three major sports franchises to win a title. The last time a Cleveland professional sports team won a championship was in 1964 when the Cleveland Browns won the NFL Championship (pre-Super Bowl era).
