Lebron and Tatum spotted at a concert together consecutive nights

[rondohondo]

On Saturday, Tatum and James were seen spending time with each other at a concert, fueling rumors that he could be considering signing with the C?s in free agency. Again, the pair were seen at a Jay-Z concert on Sunday night, which has led to Boston generating some real traction in the James free agency sweepstakes from seemingly out of nowhere

Is it gonna happen?

[Celtics2021]

Nah.  I mean, the fit would actually be great.  He could play a lot more on ball here than Miami, Philly, or Cleveland.  We need at least a secondary ballhandler on the wing, if not a primary one.  But he has spent the last 18 years with Boston as one of his top rivals, if not his top depending on the year.  As someone rightly thinking about his legacy, finishing his career in a Celtics uniform just has to be too big a hurdle.

But we are favorites in the East with him.

Omg that would be nauseating

[Jiri Welsch]

I would bet my life savings it will not happen.

Agree. I never want LeBron in a Cs uniform.

I don't think LeBron thinks about rivalries that way even a little bit. Everything is 100% about him, and how a franchise can add to his *personal* legacy. Same way Durant had no issue joining GSW.

His goal would be to win titles in MIA, CLE, LA and BOS in this scenario, so he could say he was the guy who made it all happen.

Not that I think this is going down, but yeah, I wouldn't bet on some sort of competitive integrity holding him back.

Then he should come here and do that.  The Celtics are already the #2 team in the East behind NY, and LeBron fits here better than he does elsewhere.  But I do not think he has ever or will ever seriously consider Boston.

[Who]

Why isn't LeBron looking at DET?

A near title contender. No 2nd option. No quality PF so Bron can fit right in there. Cade will do the heavy lifting. DET look perfect to me for LeBron.
