Is the "Lebron going West" a huge plus for the Celtics FA plans?

With all these rumors related to Lebron and the breakup of the Cavs , (I like the new one related to Butler http://forums.celticsblog.com/index.php?topic=91856.msg2339481#new )  do top FA really want to stay in the West?



Not only do you have to get past GS, you may have to get past Lebron and Paul George.   Or Lebron and Chris Paul.   Or all three of them.



Meanwhile in the East, the Cavs break up, someone has to be the best in the East.   Look at those Celtics.   They were a tops seed.   They are adding talented rookies and are in position to add impact players.   Top players think to themselves, I can be the top piece there that gets to the Finals with a chance to win.





So I hope for more Lebron to the West rumors.

Celtics can make the finals and still have a top 3 pick in the draft in 2019

It certainly wouldn't hurt things for Boston.

It does have the potential to make things ever more rosy for the Celtics future if they play their cards right.

Imagine Lowry going west to Houston or SA, Toronto would drop off too.

kind of, LeBron going out west makes the East more competitive, Toronto, Celtics will be teams that comes to mind that have more/increased chances at making the finals

While LeBron going out West will make it harder for himself to make it back to the Finals, especially with GSW and Spurs around
