It's a lose lose for Lebron.
if lechump gets shaq, than he can say Hey lebron you couldnt win one before me
You guys are forgetting that they would have to play their way through some decent teams to win it all. One of them being the MuthaEffing NBA Champion Los Angeles Lakers. I don't think even this years Cavs with Shaq on the team could have done that.

I don't believe that nonsense. Give the guy some legitimate teammates and he could do it. He didn't even have a legit #2 this year, and look what they did. Shoot, he barely had a legit #3 guy.
Just because they lost now all of a sudden Williams isnt a solid number 2, but during the year when they were winning, The Cavs had finally found someone to compliment Lebron, please

Mo Williams was never a #2.
The Cavaliers would have won 12 games without Lebron James. The Thunder have more talent than the Cavs without Lebron.

Yeah, that's the same absurd thing that they said about Kobe for years.
GOOD GOD IT FEELS GREAT TO SAY THAT IN PAST TENSE!!!!!!

#1 Kobe
#2 Gasol
#3 Odom
#1 Lebron
#2 Williams
Williams is not a better player than Gasol or Odom, so no, they don't have a legit #2. I'm not talking about getting through a season with a great record. I'm talking about winning a championship. For that, Williams is far from a legit #2 or #3.

Seriously, he just compared Lebron to Dan Marino.
He just lost all credibility with that retarded statement

I dont think it would really matter that much. I think that a player like Hedo Turkuglu would be scarier on a team with Lebron than Shaq IMO...
Next year i really think that even with a healthy Jameer, the Lakers would take the Magic again, and even if Shaq goes to the Cavs it would be GARNETT-PIERCE-ALLEN vs. KOBE-PAU-LAMAR round two. Those are the two strongest teams, with the rise of Bynum, Rondo Davis etc., with all teams healthy the cavs and magic wont make it past a healthy Celts squad, and the Suns, Mavs, Spurs, are all going downhill i dont see a real threat in the west..Nuggets will always be the same undisciplined erratic squad, Rockets do scare me.

I think people are overrating Hedo Turkoglu.

Maybe, but he can be a huuuge complimentary player. He can shine next to someone like lebron and create huge mismatches with him perimeter play. When Lebron is tired, he has no one to take over that he can trust, and like Kobe does with Pau, i think Hedo can do that better than any cav player right now.

Who do you guys think would be the best compliment to LeBron of the guys that are even remotely available? (as in, Dwight Howard or Pau Gasol are not an option)
I'd say a healthy Kevin Garnett. (if Boston's rebuilding, as the rumors may indicate)

The Cavs don't have the capspace to sign Hedo anyways.
They can only acquire him in a sign and trade with Orlando. And Orlando would never sign and trade Hedo to Cleveland.

I don't consider KG available.
Therefore the best compliment to Lebron on the market is Chris Bosh.

Yeah, I kinda re-read my post and went...
We'll see if Boston's gonna re-build as the draft rumors are indicating, but until then, you're right.
I'd agree about Bosh.

Bosh more than Hedo?
