The Cleveland Cavaliers traded Mike Miller to the Portland Trail Blazers over the weekend. I know what you’re thinking, but try not to worry about it too much — all parties involved in the deal had permission from LeBron James.
According to Jason Lloyd of the Akron Beacon Journal, LeBron authorized the Miller trade. Considering Miller reportedly wanted out of Cleveland, that was very nice of King James to give his blessing.
LeBron OK with Mike Miller trade, per source, who said Miller wanted out and a chance to play again. #Cavs receive trade exceptions for both

As Dan Feldman of Pro Basketball Talk notes, LeBron was very unhappy when the Miami Heat used the amnesty clause to get rid of Miller.
