It was just mentioned that because Lebron is signing the short contracts, it gives the Cavs tons of flexibility and spending power, because he is currently on the roster etc,
This isn't true?

Cap holds.
If you want to get technical, him not signing a long term deal gives them less flexibility.

At some point he's going to have to take the long term though. I was thinking about it earlier. Once the decline really starts, so will his leverage and he'd be wise to take the 4-5 deal at that point. I see two more of these 1+1s coming (cause hes always going to opt out) before the 4-5 year.
So, you're insinuating LeBron to decline in 2-3 more years?

He's one of the richest athletes in the world. I don't think he needs the "security".

He didn't? Not in the same way as Jackie Robinson obviously, but MJ has had a huge cultural influence.

As a Heat fan, it's ridiculous that we retired #23 but we also have banners for their Olympic gold medals
so no doubt in my mind #6, #3, #1, #40 are all going up when it's all said and done

Thanks Duncan.

Kanter going to get a fat offer. I hope OKC lets him walk. Makes them weaker for the short term.

Great seeing all these other west teams implode while the Spurs re-up. Damn.
82 - 0.

Was thinking the same but at the same time, I don't think he would be in the floor when it mattered for them in the postseason anyway

It seems reasonable no? He's going to be 33 at that point, he cant play like this forever, and a 5 year deal would carry him up until 38, thus avoiding the chance of him falling off inbetween that and getting out of that deal right around retirement age. Its the perfect scenario IMOSo, you're insinuating LeBron to decline in 2-3 more years?At some point he's going to have to take the long term though. I was thinking about it earlier. Once the decline really starts, so will his leverage and he'd be wise to take the 4-5 deal at that point. I see two more of these 1+1s coming (cause hes always going to opt out) before the 4-5 year.Nope, he's signing 1+1 contacts to keep the pressure on the Cavs for eternity.
Everyone wants contract security, everyone.
Thats why its watermelons to bananas. They both had cultural impact (IE they both are fruits) but the magnitude of said impact is not close, that is where the similarities end.

i think an Ibaka-Adams frontcourt could be better suited for what they need. there's more than enough offense with a healthy Russ & KD.

Doubt it. Provided Russ, KD, and Ibaka all make it through the season...they don't miss a beat without Kanter and Adams makes them a much stronger team defensively.
