I wonder if he left because they are completely ignoring him at this point?

I wonder how much of LeBron's unwillingness to be traded is a "fuck you" to Dan Gilbert. When he leaves this summer, Gilbert will be the one getting the blame and rightfully so. I don't think anyone in Cleveland will be upset with LeBron on this one.

It doesn't make sense for LeBron to consent to being traded. Any team that wants him would have to gut the roster to fit him in. It would be a lateral move. Plus Mount Rushmore type players don't get traded. Except Kareem. That kinda stuff is important to him.

LeBron deserves some blame for demanding absurd contracts for Thompson and JR that have really restricted their ability to do anything. But God that front office is a dumpster fire of incompetence.

It doesn't help the Cavs sign/trade for players that don't really fit into a system of any kind other than being "good" shooters to surround Lebron. Lue is just a figurehead.

At the beginning of the season all the talking heads said this was the best most deepest team LeBron ever played on. Now they say he doesn't have enough help.

It's still the best bench he's had, at least in Cleveland.

The starters are garbage, that's the problem.

If the talking heads recognize the players name they figure they must still be good.
