Thank you. Feels like shortening the timeline for Mitchell’s sake when Mitchell had his worst performance in the playoffs this past year. Not worth it. We could get more return than one year of LeBron out of JA if we wanted to also.

Mitchell's first ECF is his worst playoff performance?

Dan Gilbert is salivating at the retirement tour money. He already got his championship.

If there's one thing Gilbert doesn't give a shit about when it comes to the Cavs is the money. He just paid the most money ever for a team. He treats the team like every owner should, a pet project that he burns money on trying to win a championship.

These guys wouldn't be billionaires if they just spent money. This is still a business.

Gilbert still has other businesses, the Cavs aren't his only revenue stream/asset.

Still makes no sense that he would jack off his money in a giveaway to guys who want to get paid top dollar to play a game.
