He gone.
quote:
Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert believes he could eventually assemble a championship team in Cleveland without LeBron James, reports ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.
“Dan Gilbert believes that he can build a championship team without LeBron, and I think he is looking forward to trying.
“I don’t think he necessarily wants it to be next year, but I think Dan Gilbert would like to make a run of it.”

In todays game, you pretty much have to be able to attract free agents.
I think LeBron being from Cleveland has made Gilbert forget how shitty Cleveland is at attracting free agents

He could only muster 1 championship with the best player in the league and a once every 15-20 years generational talent.
Dan Gilbert is an idiot. Lebron James gift wrapped him the only championship that city has seen in decades. Had Lebron not been a homegrown product he never would have came back in the first place.
As long as the NBA doesn't intervene and give Cleveland 3/4 of the next no.1 overall picks again they will be doomed.

He said that in 2010 as well.

Ironically they would have given up all three if they could have just had the 1 that was Anthony Davis

Kind of like when he wrote that open letter guaranteeing the Cavs would win a Championship before LeBron when he left the first time.

Jerry Krause had a similar thought in Chicago

Lettuce not forget Dan Gilbert calling out Lebron and guaranteeing the Cavs would win a title before he did.
They proceeded to win 97 games in four seasons and wasted a #1 overall pick on Anthony Bennett.

yeah I don't know if he should just resign himself to mediocrity so I like the ambition
lol at the prospect of Cleveland being relevant again for a long time though

I still can’t believe they had 3 #1 overall picks in 4 years
Then turned them into Kevin Love a #8 pick and a bunch of garbage pieces

Top 5 Cavs picks since LeBron:
2011 - Kyrie (1/1), Tristan (1/4)
2012 - Dion Waiters (1/4)
2013 - Anthony Bennett (1/1)
2014 - Andrew Wiggins (1/1)

In fairness a bunch of teams passed on Giannis. He was a huge project. Even someone like Otto Porter who went third overall could have helped them a ton against GS the last two years

You can't blame them for Giannis, but they should have at least draft Dipo over Bennett.
