    I agree. I'm alreasy sick of these kids talking and not doing. It's all lip service if they don't change the way they play.

    I think there is a better chance Lebron comes here before Lowry with the way that TOR has treated him and his relationship with Demar has blossomed. No chance he leaves.

    Let see how comfortable tor is having 2 30mill a yr player with no possibility of ever beating clev as long as lebrons around but with that said, i certainly hope we dont sign him either for 30mill

    I think Toronto would rather be competitive for years, than be out of the playoffs in the lottery for years.

    They wouldn't be the 2 seed without him. The difference between being perpetually in the upper playoff bracket 1-4 than the lower bracket of 5-8, IMO is worth paying both players 30. And who knows, one of the big 3 in CLE could go down in an injury this year or the next few.

    thats fine but IMO, Clev could lose Irvining AND LOVE and still beat Tor with relative ease.....EVERY eastern playoff team is a bunch of FAKE contenders in the grand scheme, the top 4 western team could easily sweep any eastern conf team not name Clev

    Ok.....so best you can hope for with 2 30mill player is that lebron gets hurt? And not 2 elite super star either....that sounds like a good way to plan your future, based on injuries?

    Anything could happen. That's why you want to put yourself in the best position to win as many games as possible.

    Yep luck is a significant part of success in winning a title ... You never know who is going to slip on the floor and get injured ...

    A Lebron injury isn't happening though, it's about his decline ...

    As of now I'd guess a non Lebron team from the Least will go to the Finals in 2019 ...

    Lowry is 30 in his 11th season , he'll be fine for the next couple of seasons ... Toronto has no interest in not keeping this core together
