Rumor/speculation, big 3 of Tatum,Gannis,Lebron

[rondohondo]

They were talking on weei today about some speculation from Jeff Goodman  that LeBron might sign a vet min contract to join up with Tatum and Giannis to try and match Jordan's 6 titles.


 Pp. / vet
White/ schiermen
Tatum/ Hugo
LeBron/ Garza
Giannis/ queta


That's a legit contender, although I might rather see us go in a different direction. It could end up like the Lakers with Malone ...

And I just don't want LeBron here......

Yuck now.  Yay later.

[Moranis]

Absolutely, 100%.  Get it done Brad.

I can't imagine Lebron taking the minimum and getting labeled as a ring chaser.

[jambr380]

I can't imagine this would ever happen, but we could pretty easily at least offer the NTMLE. Lebron should get well above that, never mind the vet minimum.

LeBron hates Boston. He would never come here. If he?s taking a minimum deal to chase a ring, why not join the Thunder or Spurs?

Well I just googled LeBron James Boston celtics and this was kinda interesting...

Ownership Angle: Separately, groups partnered with LeBron James, such as Fenway Sports Group, have been linked to potential, future ownership stakes in the Celtics, though not as active players.

I do not see this as unrealistic.  BOS would have to pull off the Giannis trade, which is no given, but if that happened, why would not BOS be a desirable destination for LeBron?

Because he hates Boston..


Carter: "In basketball, there are fans that can literally take the game from you. You can feel like the fans is not going to let us win this one tonight. What place?"

Rivera: "Why do you hate Boston?"

James: "Because they racist as f***, that's why. They will say anything, and it's fine. I mean, f***, it's my wife, she's been dealing with them her whole life. I don't mind it. I hear it, if I hear someone close by, I check them real quick. I move onto the game, whatever the f***. They going to say whatever the f*** they want to say. They might throw something, I got a beer thrown on me leaving a game."

Carter: "It's the only place in the NBA where you and they have shirts and they say like 'F*** LeBron.'"

James: "Yeah, it's like a 'F*** LBJ' T-shirt. I believe they probably sold it at the f***ing team shop."

i feel like this is just an ethical test.

[A Future of Stevens]

I'm not a Lebron guy, but you have to say yes to him on the minimum. He could be half the player he was this year and be worth more than the minimum.

It won't happen though. As echoed above, he hates Boston.

[Donoghus]

No thanks

[Moranis]

Lebron had a racial slur painted on his house in LA when he was still with the Cavs.  It didn't stop him from joining the Lakers.  I think a lot of what he has said is rivalry stuff.  Not sure it would really stop him from joining the Celtics.  I don't think he will for a whole host of reasons, but I think his prior comments about Boston would be so far down the list of reasons, it isn't worth discussing.

I mean, nobody would have imagined we would ever get Shaq, and Lebron is certainly far less washed up than 2011 Shaq. He still is a high level borderline all star player next year. I would do it. I kinda got over my Lebron hatred the last few years. I guess we would need to sign Bronny too to make it work.
