The Cavs have offered him 5 for 80, he countered with (and is holding firm at 3 for 53 or 5 years 94). I actually like Thompson but turning down 5 years 80 is crazy to begin with. On what planet is Thompson a 94 million dollar player? He's 6th or 7th man on that Cavs team.
Smart play by Thompson.
Not following it a ton, but a few days ago it sounded like LeBron wasnt really pushing hard for TT to be taken care of. True?
Lebron has lobbied for Tristan to get his money and you know if he says something to the Cavs they are going to pay Tristan...
They are not going to risk pissing Lebron off again by letting his best friend on the team go...
Remember Lebron runs that team what he says goes..

If that's the case then why wouldn't they have buckled by now? Doesn't make sense. If they 100% will listen to Lebron the deal would be done.

Maybe it has not come to that?
Maybe he isnt pushing for it?
I know at the start of free agency he mentioned his goal was to get guys paid, and that included Tristan, he was waiting for everyone to get signed and then he was going to sign..
Maybe something happened between then and now and he is no longer pushing for it?
I've never been one too put much stock in whether a guy is "made for NY" or "can handle NY"...but Howard sure seems like one of those guys that would have a tough time here.
Lol SAS will come out and say oh i did not hear any Rumors i was just speculating, i was not trying to break any news..
he did the same thing after Melo basically shitted on his story about wanting out of New York, he said Melo never said that it was him just saying what he would do if he was Melo...
SAS is a joke who claims to be close to the players but whenever he says anything that player says i do not talk to SAS..
