If Mo can just create a little offense for 15 minutes a game he did his job. Delly fricking sucked throughout the reg season. I know everyone fell in love with him in the playoffs but he's just not a good PG.

Being a Lebron fan is fine. Just don't say "we" when referring to the Cavs

Quite the coincidence.
The only game I went to where AD got hurt was the Cavs game last year.

The MSB didn't fall under the Delly spell I think the trolling from both sides made it seem like people thought he was good but I'd bet very few if any thought he was actually good. His defense was okay to good for most of the playoffs however so Mo can work off of that.

Cabs temporary value is useless once brown retires or leaves

If he does not sell the team, the increased valuation, by itself, does not actually benefit Gilbert that much. However, the underlying factors leading to the increased valuation---increases in revenue from ticket sales, merchandise, local TV rights, and team sponsorships, along with increased brand value----are extremely beneficial.
After LeBron retires, the revenues will revert back to some degree, but will most likely remain well above the level they were at before LeBron returned, assuming that the Cavaliers continue to win over the next few years, and especially if the Cavaliers win an NBA championship. Cleveland fans, ostensibly, would continue to support a team that won consistently, is firmly associated with one of the best players of all time, and potentially brought the city its first championship in recent memory. Additionally, national merchandising sales will likely never revert back to their pre-LeBron lows.
While this might seem like an overly rosy projection initially, the underlying assumption is not that the Cavaliers can be at the top of the NBA market long-term, but rather that they can remain roughly where they are at #15 in value among league franchises (for reference, Toronto is #14 and Phoenix is number #16) instead of near the bottom of league where they were prior to LeBron (roughly the equivalent of the Bucks).

Dan Gilbert is worth 4.8 Billion. Im sure paying the luxery tax isnt a big deal to him. Also, if he brings a championship to Cleveland, the amount of merchandise the Cavs will sell would arguably be the highest ever recorded. Those people would clean everything off the shelf that was championship related. As for the Mo Williams move...love it! He loved playing in Cleveland and this gives us a legit backup PG. Solid move.

Don't understand what's so sketchy about it. Sportsbooks aren't legal in Ohio casinos.

That was a really poor analysis of the lakers free agency

It read like a "copy and paste" from a message board

A word on the Pelicans: They sacrificed about $10 million in cap space next summer by extending Davis now instead of letting him into restricted free agency as San Antonio did with Kawhi Leonard.5 The Pelicans could offload some salary between now and then, but that $10 million represents real lost chances — the chance to sign one more quality player, or the extra flexibility to court a tandem

Why did they do this? I see no benefit.
