I mean, they are still teammates and the kid was just drafted #1. Maybe I'm just reading too far into it.
Not me. Now if the GM or coach hadn't talked to the kid I'd have a problem with it but star players are not GM or coach. People are seriously reaching. Twenty days, we should just wait and see what happens.

Re: LeBron James: I'm coming back to Cleveland (OFFICIAL)

LeBron age is what the problem is here. If he were just 2-3 years younger. Keeping Wiggins would be easy. But with this win now thing.


When did Pippen and Jordan join forces? And how old were they?

I don't agree Teddy_Long... You don't need a rim protector to win the championship. The Heat have proven that.

Jordan was 24, Scottie was 22 when he was acquired on draft night. Jordan was definitely in win now territory though.

Not agreeing with him, but to be fair, the Heat's team defense had a lot to do with helping overcome that issue. Battier, James, Wade, Bosh think Andy might be the only one on the Cavs that can compare to the level of defenders the Heat had on the roster here. Maybe TT?

Re: LeBron James: I'm coming back to Cleveland (OFFICIAL)

What I will say is: I'm assuming the Cav's arent playing an aggressive style like the Heat, so they'll definitely need more of a traditional rim protector. Even Bosh/Birdman were to be reckoned with on the weak side.

That will need to be addressed in some capacity whether they keep Wiggins or not...

If Varejao stays healthy he'll be "ok", but for championship aspirations they need to bring in someone, at least a guy off the bench.
