Lebron's destinations are either Cleavland, Miami or One of the LA Teams.

Apparently him and his Wife "Love" LA

Clippers would have to do a sign and trade with Miami. Probably something involving Blake Griffen. If He chooses the other option and wants to play for the Lakers I could see a combo of Kobe/Lebron/Draft Pick. Working out nicely.

The Lakers shouldn't even be an option. The Clippers however, that might actually be the most appealing team. They have arguably the best PG in the game, they have the shooters, a dominant big in DJ, the depth, and the coach.

Clippers wouldn't bother me, but man I would hate to see LeBron in a Lakers jersey.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

Mo Williams would have been fine, except for that he was brought on to be the 2nd best player on the team. And in Mike Brown's brilliant offense he was basically given a Westbrook-like role, with not near enough talent for it to be championship caliber duo.

Though decent shooting percentages he was a very streaky shooter. He was your prototypical 6th man type player. Someone to come in and get shots like how the Clippers use Crawford or Spurs use Mills.. Only problem was he wasn't given that role, he was the starting point guard.

Ideally Cleveland needed a point guard who could make plays, or at least be a lockdown defender.. If not that, a shooting guard that could do either of those things.. They were sorta stuck at that point having to start Mo and West together, which both basically had the same type of game. One of them desperately needed to be a 6th, and both needed to play off ball more.. Which they did a lot because Brown ran 99.99% of everything through LeBron.

But with that being said, Mo played solid for Cleveland. And that supporting cast was much, much better than when they were having to rely on Snow, Murray, Pavlovic, Jones, and Newble playing all the minutes in the back court.

LeBron's supporting cast is pretty bad when you compare to other teams who made the finals, but for that time in the East it really wasn't too bad compared to his competition. Obviously the Celtics and Pistons had much better teams, and Orlando just before LeBron left.. But there was always enough pieces around him for them to have a shot at coming out of the East..

I agree with you, except the part about the "much better teams". Those teams weren't much better. The Celtics may have been better but I'd even say that's debatable. You identified the problem... Mike Brown. He had pieces and put none of them in a place to succeed... Lebron included. Good break down of Williams and even West, and we can go down the list of players who's talents were improperly used. The team was far from great but with the talent it had, and the best player in the league, it was one of the top teams in the league. They don't win the ring and everyone throws them under the bus. Now the Heat has the names and people are still doing the same thing (not directed at you... I agree with you, just going off on a tangent).

Re: The LeBron James Thread

I don't care where he goes, just get him out of the Southeast.

No chance for anyone else to take the division until he's gone. Although part of me wants him to stick around just so one day I can (Hopefully) witness the Hornets get their first win over the Heat in the Big 3 era.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

I don't know about LeBron to the Clippers, because idk if they are the best team for him. I feel like both he and Chris Paul's skills overlap and while it would be successful, I think the Clippers might be better off with Blake Spurs would be great, but LBJ would get killed for that move


I think that it would be great for Bron to try to sign with the Pacers to see if he could get Indiana's owner to enter the luxury tax. Also, the LeBron would never have to worry about a defective air conditioning when he has Lance Stephenson to blow in his ear
I think the decision is between Cleveland, Miami, and Chicago for him

Isn't it great how LeBron's The Decision Part 2™ gets as much coverage (more?) as the Spurs winning the title on Sunday night?

Wait the Spurs are still playing? They're all like 50 lololo

Please LeBron, don't go to the West. Y'all think the East is bad now..

Re: The LeBron James Thread

'Bron, just go back to the team that drafted you first pick. Might as well end your basketball career there with them. And you'll live happily ever after.

Re: The LeBron James Thread

One of the things I think that will keep LeBron in Miami is not has he been to the finals 4 straight times. But I think his family and crew like it down there more.

If there's 1 thing we learned from the last go around is that "sources" don't know jack ****.

It's cool for us to sit around and speculate. But I"ll wait to hear my news from Lebron, not media "sources".

Re: The LeBron James Thread

LeBron going to the Western Conference would be a disaster. We need SOME talent in the East.
