You may be content with the Cavs "trying to make things happen" and "working their ass off" but at the end of the day, they've done nothing besides sign Juwad Williams. Will that be enough for LBJ? We'll see.

Cleveland doesn't have any cap room. You keep acting like its easy to bring somebody in and that management just isn't trying. They have been doing everything they can, but they just don't have the wherewithall due to some bad contracts on their books.

All of those teams you're talking about have cap space. Hell, the Cavs tried everything they could to get Bosh - he just didn't want to come. What can they do?

Those clubs have spent the last few years gutting their rosters and just plain sucking balls. If that's the definition of doing something, I'm glad that Cavs have done the opposite. All the teams you mention have cap space. They just need to convince the player to sign. The Cavs have to do a sign & trade. They have to convince the player and that player's old team. It's not as simple as you're making it seem.

Whose fault is it that the Cavs don't have any cap room? Getting Jamison was one of the worst decisions I've seen them make in years.

Even IF the Knicks sign him

they still wont win anything

LeBron + Amar'e + A Bunch Of Bums does not = a NBA title

at least it would be funny watching the New York fans cry when they flop

I really enjoyed watching a sportscast a few weeks ago

Sportscaster says "LeBron should sign with the Knicks because he scores 50 every time he plays in the Garden"

Other newscaster... "that's cuz he's playing AGAINST the Knicks"

And if the Cavs don't go out and get Jamison then everybody says the Cavs "sat on their hands" and didn't try to surround LeBron with competent teammates. I don't blame the guy who put the team together, I blame the coach and the players who didn't bother to show up.

Difference is, all those teams have cap space, the Cavs don't. Would you want them to sign Mike Miller to their mid-level exception? Not a big enough splash. Your expectations are unrealistic.

Completele ignorant statement. We got him for the 30th pick in the draft. A stretch 4 who is capable of maybe 18 and 8 a night for basically nothing. He was a bad matchup against Garnett, but if they get past Boston he matches up well against Rashard and you're singing a different tune.

And it was Mike Brown's fault for not seeing the mismatch and changing the lineup. My only regret over the past few years for the Cavs is that Mike Brown was the coach.
