yes, that's exactly what we're all saying... that we don't need Lebron... ur reading comprehension skills are unmatched.

I have seen a couple of games there in the regular season and they were sold out and the atmosphere was great. Maybe they will kick it up a notch now that the Cavs have lost at home.

Bottom line:

1.) We are in position to get Lebron, Amare, Wade, Bosh etc. It would have been irresponsible not to get under the cap and would have continued the policies that led us to 10 years of losing

2.) It's a pipe dream to get Lebron and there is no guarantee that we will get any free-agent of significance. So what, you have to be in the game to win the game. What other option did we have? Hold on to Zach and Jamal and try to win with them?

3.) If Lebron comes here you are a title contender for the next 10+ years. If he doesn't come here you are under the cap and a player in 2010, 2011, 2012.........Plus you are probably bad enough to continue to get top 10 picks. Besides benching everyone with ability and hoping for the worst record in the league every year to get a top 10 pick, what scenario is better than what we have right now? W

4.) We are in position to trade and sign a free-agent. Prior to this year we were only in position to trade garbage for garbage.

ok here's lebron on the mecca: "I can't say this is the same as any other road game, because this is the Mecca basketball," James said. "A lot of things have happened in this building, a great history and the fans have seen a lot. Like Kobe said, this is the last building that's still alive."

"It's just a different feeling when you come in this building - you feel like you're on stage playing basketball, more than you're on a court. So many great coaches and players have been here, there's no way it's just another road game."

lebron said right there its the only legit crowd in the nba with some league history now that the lake show is in staples and boston in TD banknorth or whatever its called.

to settle the debate watch the next game "at the Q" aka quicken loans arena, to say it "was rocking as loud as msg ever was" is comedy.



there is game 1 of a conference finals from 93, watch 5 minutes of the next game in cleveland its laughable to say they're even in the same ball park. MSG is the best crowd in the league, cleveland is not even in the top 10. (not to mention the magic are exposing the cavs as a bunch of hacks, lebron would win 50 games his first year in NY with d'antoni coaching and the rooster, the mayor, and a bunch of NBDL scrubs as teammates. lebron plays 1 on 5 every time down the floor the reason they're in the CF is b/c he's lebron)
