Gary Payton just leaked this. Who would thought a middle schoolers commitment would be big news?
Lebron james Jr will attend High school this year in LA.
https://www.slamonline.com/college-hs/high-school/report-bronny-james-enroll-sierra-canyon-school-los-angeles/
Lebron has said his decision will revolve around his family....
(LeBron James’) son just committed to Sierra Canyon which is in the valley of LA. That’s where his son is going to go to school [with] Scottie Pippen’s son and Kenyon Martin’s son. So, that’s a move that they’re going to make … if everybody looks at it with a son at that age, you don’t want to be away from him during that period of time. During the time that we’re having, basketball is school time. I think that (Bronny) needs a father during that time and that’s it. I don’t think LeBron is that type of parent, I think he wants to be around his son a lot and see his son play a lot.”

That's it guys. LeBron James going to the Lakers!
-
Yeah, Bill Simmons theory on this will probably come to fruition. LeBron's best option is to go to LA, build a contender and establish himself for life after basketball.

LAC dark horse contender! ;D

Why would he name his son after him anyhow?..Be alot of pressure on him
-
Haven’t Lebron’s kids been going to school in LA for years now? This is the status quo, which could mean LA, or could mean anywhere else.

Is that you Lavar?

In the article there is this tweet....
Just talked to a Sierra Canyon official on the rumor that Bronny James has committed: "That's news to us. He hasn't."
So if the actual school is unaware of it then it's not actually true yet.

Good riddance

It's very possible as it checks the "family" box. I would put the odds as higher than Houston but not as high as LAL.
-
The Lakers make sense on a lot of fronts. The question to me is not whether LeBron will go to the Lakers or not but who else will go. Chris Paul? Paul George? DeMarcus Cousins? Instant contender.
If this really is about family (and I don't doubt that it is), why would the James family want to move to Boston or Houston or Philly?
The Lakers only have $39M committed for next season (excluding draft picks) and Deng accounts for $18M of that (what a bad deal). I suppose that Deng could be stretched or maybe traded by including him with a desirable prospect to a team with cap space. It would be like trading Deng + Prospect for Chris Paul.

I would not. The Clippers leave a bad taste in a lot of players’ mouths because of Donald Sterling. Although he’s been gone, the perception lingers.

is this true and the writer is just stirring up muck or is this a guess based on Lebron having a home in that area?

To be clear, I was kidding and highly doubt he goes there

Bronny went to Old Trail Middle School which is in Bath, Ohio (just outside of Akron). I believe that he has gone to school during the summer in LA though.

Correct. James lives in la during the summer.
It is going to be the Lakers. The media, mainly espn will build the hype and suspense for the next three weeks but it is pretty much a been in motion for a long time

Yep, certainly looks like the Lakers. As you said, there have been quiet moves for a while now. Staying in Cleveland just doesn't make sense and so the Lakers are the next logical move.
-
If LA, that is such a massive blow to Philly, especially if someone like PG13 or Kawhi join him in LA.
I also believe he is going to LAL. I think that is a good move for NBA. League is better when LAL is good. Se t's up for a Cs vs LAL finals again too.

Amen...go to Lakers Lebron...Kryie and our Celtics look forward to helping you continue to lose Finals very soon! I would love a Kyrie vs Lebron finals matchup sometime in the very near future...it would be epic!!
-
IMO that would be wonderful if the LeCarpetbagger took the Legacy show to LA. It gets him out of the east and renders him irrelevant on a team that will not beat Golden State.

Are you sure it's about Sterling? The overhaul from him to Ballmer - a fairly beloved owner - was well-documented. If anything, the Clippers might seemingly have a little momentum.
I would think the bigger problem is that there is absolutely no mystique in Clipper-land (similar to the Knicks/Nets, but much bigger difference) and the Clippers have no real cap space with which to work. Lebron being able to team up with another big star and possibly use prospects to trade for a tertiary one on the 'biggest' stage has to be appealing.

That’s going to be one heck of a high school team...

Forming super-teams huh? Like father like son!

He won't win another title if he goes to LA.....he's too old to try to do a Miami kind of thing. His only hope for titles were Boston and Houston, maybe SA or a couple other places he would never go.
He make a team good enough to wear down the Hoston's and Golden State's of the world, so they are easier pickings for the Celtics in the finals.. :)
-

Yeah they brought this up on NBA radio this morning. To keep their options open it seems like the family might "enroll him" in a few different schools and make their deposit just to make sure he is on the list. And then when the family makes the decision he can choose what school to go to from there.
So it could be LA....But it also could not.

Please go to the Lakers LeBron. I can't wait for my Celtics to get their revenge for 2010, and all of those losses to LeBron in 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017 and 2018 >:( >:( >:(

Yeah, he'll be 34 in December. His time is running out as far as being a guy who can carry a team to the finals on his own.

I don't know what the best thread to put this in, but the odds have dramatically moved in favor of Lebron going to the Lakers for next season.
Per the site I use LA is now 1:2
The 76ers are 3:1
Rockers are 5:1
Cavs are at 6:1
In related news, the Lakers have the 5th best title odds at 10:1 now.

Interesting odds

Is there a way to bet against a team? I’d love to bet against Philly.

DRAMATICALLY
don't discount the Clippers having a shot
I wonder if Lebron will request a sign a trade (so that he can get paid - better extension) OR he likes the young players and just joins as a FA
I can't see him co existing with Lavar Ball...so Lonzo is probably a goner. It would be funny if the yesterdays Lakers becomes the new Cavs (Clarkson, Ball, Ingram, Nance Jr.)

To be clear this is the LA Lakers at 1:2. The LA Clippers are listed at 50-1

Not on this particular sites. Some sites may set these up as Philly vs Field, but for this particular bet that may be harder to find. They also have smaller caps on what you can bet on this kind of thing cause you theoretically could have insider information.

Lebron jr commits to Sierra Canyon...(rumor) his wife wants to be in LA also
It's more than likely going to be LA
the odds for him to join other teams has become more like 10-1, 15-1 etc

Yeah, it didn’t seem like the type of the thing that would have a field bet, as I imagine the demand for this bet can’t be nearly as high as many other things people bet on.
Sadly, I have no insider information on this.
