is it really petty and/or stupid for him to tell a friend to avoid CLE at all costs because it's a mess and he's leaving after next season?


Without a doubt, unless of course he sees a better option for competing next year. Which could be the case.

Not any time of bash either, I think any player would be stupid to do that.

What other great options is Butler going to have, I guess you can make the argument about going to Boston and hoping to win the East after Bron leaves but that still isn't that great when you really look at it.

I'll preface this by saying i have no clue if LeBron and Butler are close friends.

But in general, I think we undervalue that a lot of these guys are good friends. If LeBron truly sees CLE as a mess and also Butler as a good friend, I don't think it's stupid at all for him to tell Butler to do everything he can to stay away from CLE. He's just being a good friend at that point.

I mean, if you worked for a company you hated and were trying to find a new job, would you try to hire your friend on with that company you hate?
