It does sound better for Cleveland, but that doesn't mean much.

I dont think that has been true since last night. The moron at the bagel place I stop at most mornings is confident. But hes 30 and spreads cream cheese for a living.

Are there any more media talking heads predicting Miami?

Miami fans aren't going to melt, at least not most of them. They live in Miami.

If LeBron chooses Cleveland, it will be interesting to watch the 76ers/Heat Tankathon next season.

This is what I don't get. We get reports saying LeBron will meet with Riley one last time before making his decision. He meets with Riley for an hour and says I'm going home to discuss it with my family. Then widespread panic. Literally nothing happened that wasn't supposed to happen. The feeling was the he was a near lock to Cleveland and nothing has come out to refute that.

I think it was the fact that he isnt going to meet with the cavs that made me feel like it isnt going to go my way.

Because people had pumped themselves up to believe that he was going in there to tell Riley he was leaving, then come out and strip down to a pair of Cavaliers pajamas.

LeRetard is the only Miami fan I can think of that would melt and I'd like to see that. Either way, it'll be funny.

He sounded like he was cracking during his show yesterday. Playing up his "incredulous that people actually care about this" schtick.

The feeling from who? All the reputable news breakers are clueless. Even Broussard who is as close to the LeBron camp as any reporter is saying a decision has not been made. The only reporter saying it's Cleveland is Sheridan who's a known click baiter that has seen his twitter followers jump 25% in the last few days.

You have to spend $56million to meet the salary floor, much like the NFL. They could technically absorb every crappy contract in the world and stockpile picks. It's Pat Riley though. I'd expect Riley to instead start rebuilding around Bosh, or at least try.
