Man, the Celtics could win a couple of titles with LeBron here if they traded Jaylen Brown for him.
Tatum would be an awesome #2 for LeBron. We have Horford. Timelord. Smart. So many pieces that LeBron would work brilliantly well with and LeBron is exactly the sort of playmaking high efficiency offensive hub that this team needs. This team would be awesome with LeBron.
As much as it is a short-term move (3-4yrs of LeBron vs 10-12yrs of Jaylen), I'd find it hard not to do it. LeBron is still that good.
I wouldn't want this.
Even if it got us titles.
I would feel very dirty about it all. It reminds me of that debate - would you rather Dirk's 1 ring or KD's multiple?
I personally can't answer that because I didn't watch NBA for a good 7-8 years, which was exactly that timespan.
Probs also why I don't hate KD as much as other people do?
How about you?
Dirk, all day. Home grown hero defying all odds in that championship run, whereas KD jumped ship to a team that he choked against the playoffs (they were up 3-1), which had also just won 73 games. It remains for me the most cowardly move I can recall.
