LeBron James rejoining Cleveland Cavaliers is laughable to NBA executives

When the Cleveland Cavaliers won the No. 1 pick in the summer of 2011, they used it to sort of stick it to LeBron James for leaving — like being the worst team in the league was a bragging right. Four years later and absolutely nothing has changed expect instead of throwing up double middle fingers at LeBron James, the Cavaliers are begging him to come back, or at least that’s the perception.

But whatever quite confidence the Cavaliers may or may not have that LeBron James is returning to the place he used to call home, other NBA executives, scouts and agents are all in the other room having a good hardy chuckle at the notion. According to the Akron Beacon Journal, one scout noted that if LeBron were to ever meet with Dan Gilbert this summer, it would be a very short conversation.

"Whenever the idea of LeBron James returning to the Cavs this summer was broached during the NBA predraft camp last week, personnel from around the league met the topic with a mixture of snickers, laughs, eye rolls and direct denials.“It’ll be a short conversation,” one agent said. “No thank you and have a nice day.”"

This is probably the best way to sum it up as LeBron James is never coming back to Cleveland so long as Dan Gilbert owns the team. It takes a lot of missing brain cells to be up there with the likes of James Dolan as an NBA owner but somehow Gilbert has been up to the task.

Having the No. 1 pick three out of the last four years is the worst sales pitch to a veteran player ever, as not only are you showing off your incompetence when it comes to winning, it displays your utter lack of awareness as well.
