would have to be a s&t for Blake griffin

PG: Paul
SG: Reddick
SF: Lebron
PF: ?
 c: Jordan

Or;

PG: Paul
SG: Reddick
SF: Dudley
PF: Bron
C: Jordan

Clips are looking to move Dudley before the trade deadline.

  Any particular reason for that?

Reddick and Barnes are healthy. Not enough minutes.

I really hope not, that 2015 "Doc Rivers" pick will essentially be a second rounder if this is true

Lebron would be foolish, or at least non-strategic, to close the door on free agency at this point.  Keeping the door open shines attention on him and motivates the Heat to make things as attractive as possible for him stay. 

I will give him the benefit of doubt -- I think Lebron either stays in Miami or leaves for Cleveland. Anything else and he opens himself up unecessarily for criticism. Pat Riley will also do whatever he can to keep the game's best player in Miami.  Unless there is a feud of some sort internally, I just don't believe he'll reject another city to orchestrate another superteam (unless he goes back home).

If LeBron takes his (flopping) talents to LA, the only question is: does he take more acting lessons, or does he start teaching?

OHHHHH, ZINNNNGGGGGG!

I say he stays in Miami.

I think Chris Bosh will be the one to bolt and the Heat FO will pick up another star to put aside LeWade (Melo.)

I know I would stay in Miami (nice weather, pina coladas, palm trees, fine women, etc.)

agreed. Doubt he leaves
Truuuuuuuuuth!

Also, Dudley looks out of shape and is really playing horrible for what they need in a SF. No surprise they want to move him because they need to get better. Interesting though that Doc recruited him and now wants to move him. Also interesting that Doc loves to recruit players that have killed him in the past. Look at Vujacic and Turkoglu on the Clips..

And why would Bosh leave the Heat? Wade had a big dunk tonight so they are doing well. I doubt Lebron goes to Cleveland with the reports of how horrible that franchise is.

Could the Clips keep Paul and Griffin and sign LeBron?

Miami would ask for Griffin back in a sign and trade most likely
sure, but it doesn't mean LA would give him up.

any all-star besides Kevin Durant for Lebron is a must do deal imo.

They'd be crazy to turn that down.

Lebron is too good to play with Paul. That may sound odd but he needs the ball in his hands to be dominant. Neither Paul or James are that good off the ball. He should pair up with a stud pg in his later years like our kg and pierce did.

For Lebron? It would be beyond a no brainer.
