Why did Miami have to give the Cavaliers two first round and second round draft picks?

Posted By admin on February 11, 2011

truth and freedom asked:


I thought that Lebron James was a free agent. Why would Miami give Cleveland all of these future draft picks when Lebron chose to go to Miami? The same with Toronto, I heard they got draft picks too. I don’t understand it.

    They probably agreed on a sign and trade…………..in order to get lebron a little more money than what he would have gotten if he just signed with the heat…………..the cavs did it because atleast they get something

    It would have been a good deal for the Cavs if Lebron informed earlier of his decision. Now, most of the free agents have signed with other teams leaving the Cavs with none.
