“I think their owner doesn’t want LeBron infringing upon Michael’s legacy. The intel is that they’re just not going to help LeBron.”- Eric Pincus on Bulls unwillingness to trade with the Lakers. Cavs info as well.
Saw a clip of Eric Pincus on Buha’s pod and found this to be interesting. He said this and brought up Caruso as the player in this context.
McMenamin also stated a while back that the Lakers tried to trade for Drummond at the deadline which failed.
Pincus believes that another team with somewhat similar mindset is the Cavs but that a trade with them is more plausible.
>I do think you can argue that the Cavs may get over some of these hurt feelings about him. He got them the only championship they’ve got. But if he won more, does that hurt the Cavs? I mean no.”
Buha also said LeBron attended Cavs/Celtics Game 4 as Dan Gilbert’s personal guest.
Pincus also said it is possible Cavs refuse to trade Mitchell to Lakers and take a lesser deal elsewhere.
>There’s an argument to be made that they don’t. And they may take a similar deal that is not bad but maybe arguably not as good as what the Lakers would offer. Just not to help LeBron, that’s possible.
