RE: Cavaliers ALMOST Traded Kyrie Irving!!
Who knows, haha. I still think Lebron will stay, but it all depends on how next years postseason plays out. If no moves are made now and they suffer a similar fate against the Warriors? He might be gone. I'm still hoping for a Melo and Wade buyout and have them both join the Cavs...now that would be fun!
If Billups is smart he'll make some moves (getting rid of Love is paramount)
he is not signed yet. last i heard is billups countered the original offer yesterday and he said "the ball is in Dan Gilbert's court".
you seem to have good cleveland sources. any news on this?
That might be tough. But I know Lebron would LOVE to play with best friends Carmelo, Wade and CP3. CP3 is now likely forever out of the question. But a lot will have to happen.
There will be no buyouts. They will have to be traded. Dolan fired Phil Jackson as he refused to buyout Carmelo's contract for $50 million. John Paxson said they won't trade Dwayne Wade unless they get something of equal value back and expect him to play for the next year.
But I think Carmelo can be traded for cheap. And he would be open to it now as it is not Phil's idea anymore. It seems though they really want get Paul George like every other team in the league. lol. More moves are coming soon. Should be fun.
We'll see about the Wade situation, though. Paxson has said a lot of things and gone back on them before, so I don't take what he says very seriously any more. I definitely think Wade will play half the year and collect his $12M, but he doesn't want to play on a rebuilding team so he might push for the buyout (no one is going to take his contract in a trade). Melo's situation is more tricky of course (two years, $50M), but its still possible when you consider how irked Melo has become because of all this drama, he might try to force it or not play lol.
