Report: Griffin leaving as Cavs GM

[dreamgreen]

I'm sure Lebron had nothing to do with that. lol Labron wants more, he needs more rings!

I know James says all the right things to the camera, but someday we're gonna find out what a prima donna this guy really is.

I've always thought he was an insufferable prima donna.  Do most people not see that?

I think he's a total turd that never played on a super team!

[Vox_Populi]

LeBron sits in his car in the parking lot of of the Quicken Loans arena. He pulls out his work phone and dials the Cavs front office.

Lebron: "Hello, I'd like to speak to the general manager."

Secretary: "Mr. Griffin is currently-"

LeBron: "The real general manager."

LeBron's personal phone begins to buzz from the glove compartment.

[D Dub]

Why would anyone want to play with LBJ at this point?

It's obvious he's not a team player, nor is his first mate (Kyrie).

Matters not how good you are, your running the 'get in the corner and take the open 3 if I need to pass' offense that has made Lebron so kingly. 

I don't get it.   Does Paul George like the way Love was emasculated or something?

Disgusted at players good enough to beat Lebron, but are too lazy to try so just let their agents talk them into joining up with him instead.

At this point, Danny should call about Lebron lol

I mean, why not? I could see Lebron demanding a trade from Gilbert. They've never exactly been on the best of terms after "operation comic sans."

Better yet, LeBron should opt out after this season and join the Celtics.  We have the supporting cast of defenders he needs.  Remember the C's have beat GS twice in last 2 years.

I am only half-joking.

Wow:

Dan Gilbert didn't consult with LeBron James prior to parting with David Griffin, sources said. James had advocated for Griffin extension

Lol at this point it's a dang near certainty that Lebron is gone next year, if not sooner.

Still not convinced he goes West, though, at least to the Lakers. Rumors that he goes to the Clips with Paul now that West is advising.

Maybe a win-now philosophy isn't too shortsighted at this point?

Blake Griffin was the CAVS GM?

Short of LeBron on the Celtics, I'd love to see him in San Antonio. San Antonio would have the best and third-best players in a series vs. Golden State. It would be a competitive series at the very least.

Lebron's Team: "Look Windy, we're getting trashed on social media right now.  We need some damage control. Can you put something out there?"

Windhorst: "Done"

[manl_lui]

so LeBron is promoted to GM/Coach/Player? first in history, wow

Going to be an interesting next couple of weeks. If Billups does in fact get the job, he has been vocal about swapping Love for Carmelo.

But who knows? Lebron could ultimately decide this isn't for him and force his way out, too. He's done his part and brought a title to Cleveland. He wouldn't get nearly as crucified this time, especially given the circumstances.

[celticinorlando]

LeBron wants to play with Chris Paul. Somehow he will weasel his way out of cleveland again

[cousytoheinsohn]

Blake Griffin did a great job in Cleveland.

So did Kathy Griffin.
