LeBron creates a toxic presence in the locker room. Irving and Love aren't playing well, so LeBron unfollows the Cavs on Twitter, subtweets the entire team, and then casually mentions to the media that he'd like to play with Wade, Paul, and Melo. The fact that the Wade may not be in the league for much longer expedites the timeline and puts his current teammates on notice.

That isn't leadership, that's a series of mind games. It does nothing to improve the team.

I agree with what you are saying but it is worth noting that the quote about playing with Wade, Paul, and Melo was from before the all star break. They seemed to be holding on to it for the right moment to release it to the masses for the most publicity.

Anybody that bought into LeBald's [Mark May] when he "came home" has no one to blame but themselves. Like I said after that ridiculous"essay"...just stfu and win games. I actually find it hard to root for them because I simply cannot stand drama queen LeBald.

Looks like someone is angling to get un-followed on Twitter.

So predictable. LeBron wants to cherry pick championships. He went to Miami to cherry pick a couple. Then he came back to Cleveland because he could play with Kyrie and Love and winning would be easy again, just like LeBron likes it. LeBron doesn't do hard. Hard is too hard. He just didn't see that a couple other teams out there had the talent and chemistry, and would play like actual teams and kick his [Mark May] in. LeBron and his posse of "every move I make is calculated" managers bricked a 3 on that one...

Well thats a no brainer. If we didn't draft Kyrie, Lebron would still be in Miami. We all knew that before he came back.
I just read an article saying Lebron's body language shows that he is sick of Cleveland.
I seen that same exact kind of body language on the court every year he was in Miami. The media will create drama even when there is none.
Lebron does them a favor by doing stupid stuff on twitter. It just gives people a reason to believe the bullshit drama the media creates.

This team isn't as good as Miami was. Kyrie cant create offense like Wade could. Love cant knock down consistent shots like Bosh could.
Wade and Bosh were clutch. Kyrie can be sometimes but Love is not and Lebron is getting old.

It doesn't matter how "hard" LeBron goes. We seen that the first time he was here.
All three of our Big 3 need to be better.

Love is one of the most overrated players in basketball. I said when they were considering trading for him that he only looked like a top ten player because he was the only decent player on a terrible team. He put up huge stats because he WAS their offense. He's a role player who once put up big numbers in basketball purgatory...not unlike Larry Hughes did. The Cavs don't have a "Big Three." I wish people would stop referring to them that way.

To be honest, I only think of them as a Big 3 in the sense that they have max contracts.
Those 3 max contracts will continually kill the depth of this team, so those 3 guys have to play really damn good.
Love does have a decent offensive game, and not alot of 6'10 guys can shoot from 3.
I agree though, I wouldn't put him in my top 30.

The main fear all of us Cavs fans have.. is when the game is on the line... who can we count on..
cuz too often this year.. our key shooters develop meltdowns and can't hit shit

When your outside shot ain't working... get to the bucket
only LeBron does this... but only sometimes... other times he bombs bricks from outside until we've lost

Regrettably, have not seen Love as the end-of-game GO TO enuf to believe in him
Have seen Irving be the GO TO but not enuf to believe
We saw in the finals, JR is GO TO but when lights are brightest, disappears

For those not in the loop (Me included), that's Kyrie's girl cheating on him...

You can't go anywhere on Twitter right now without seeing the fallout & memes about this.

Now this "story" just gets totally thrown into the whack.

As you can tell, both Instagram posts have been deleted, which will be a popular theme to this story.

Synopsis: Kyrie's GF, Kehlani, some young artist I've never heard used to date this rapper PARTYNEXTDOOR (Yes, all CAPS). They broke up last year & eventually Kyrie swoops in.

Fast forward to this morning & PARTYNEXTDOOR posts a picture on Instagram of him apparently holding her hand (Distinctive tattoo's) lying in bed with the caption "After all her shenanigans, still got the r&b singer back in my bed".

Boom. Twitter effing explodes & she immediately deletes her social media accounts. Eventually, PARTYNEXTDOOR deletes the post after a few hours, but the damage was done. The rest of the day was all three individuals involved getting dogged on Twitter with memes & anything you can imagine. I can post some of them if you'd like, there's honestly some pretty creative and savvy ones, but I digress...

Out of nowhere she reappears on Instagram tonight posting a picture of her arm with an IV in & a lengthy caption essentially hinting at suicide. Well, that didn't last long because not only did she delete that post, but she deleted EVERY SINGLE one on her account. It's currently "active'', yet now totally barren.

Nobody knows what's going on, whether its truthful, a plot by a jealous ex, a charade, etc. All I know is it's the dumbest shit I've ever seen.

:slappy: nothing like a well timed distraction to justify the inevitable collapse that will eventually happen during the Playoffs.

I'll find an article better explaining everything, but that was essentially the gist. There were some glorious Tweets on the subject you may enjoy as well.
