We should be praying for LeBron to join the Lakers

[EJPLAYA]

This would be the greatest outcome for the C's. It means he is no longer in the East to contend with. It means he didn't join the Sixes to contend with. It means the West will now be that much more difficult to get out of for the Warriors, Rockets, etc. This will make it a knockout drag down dog fight to make it to the Finals and increase our chances of championships. Please, LA. Make it happen!!!

I agree, let them max the aging LBJ and his assembly of second fiddles.
It’s a rare cauldron that produces a championship super team.
My bet is the result looks more like Rose’s NYK “superteam” is the Pierce, KG, Allen version.

Boston is poised. We will be contending for the next decade while LA tries to extricate itself from a self inflicted salary cap nightmare.

Nah. Gotta think big picture. It drastically raises the chances that the Lakers tie or surpass us for the most titles ever. We just can't have that.

yup, this is what I'm thinking.  I have no worries about getting to the finals in the East.  C's have the best roster. 

No way I want the Lakers back in the finals for another decade.  let them experience the drought we went through.

We should pray he stays put.

We should pray he stays put.

we hope ,but he will go to who ever gets Kawhi ....he is chasing Kawhi

Cavs just have noway  to bring in Kawhi .  Paul George won't land there  until Lebron makes a choice ,  Spurs are the only ones who can screw up the giant Laker superteam ..


Other words Lehate , Kawhi and George are forciing themselves on the Lakers .

the Spurs are the only ones who can stop it .   Simply by not trading Kawhi,  let him walk next year . 

Otherwise  Spurs will be building a Lakers super team .

Him staying in Cleveland would be getting your cake and eating it too.

Sorry, but LeBron on the lakers is not better than that Cavs team. The only way they are arguably better is with PG AND Kawhai. Even with that though they are not going to beat the warriors. And probably not the Rockets. With LeBron and one of them they aren't more than 4-5 seed.

Windhorst said it's all but a done deal.

I agree...IF Kawhi doesn't go to the Lakers...

[saltlover]

Chris Mannix is reporting the Nuggets are going to make a push for LeBron.  Good luck to them!

(It would need to be a sign and trade in which they send out more than $40 million thanks to the hard cap, and thus would require at least a third team to help out.)

I still say the best thing for Boston this offseason other than getting healthy is James vacating the Eastern Conf. That really clears all paths foe Boston. No way Philly beat them.

LeBron has little to no chance of winning a title in LA unless they manage to trade for Kawhi Leonard too. Even then the odds are slim.

[Eja117]

It would be pretty funny if Bron becomes the one huge player in LA never to win a ring.

You know what I mean.

Karl Malone doesn't count

[footey]

If Lakers get Kawhi and Lebron, the rest of their pieces will be easy. That will be a tough squad.
