So are you saying when they signed Lebron it was ALWAYS the plan to get the second star next year?
I think he meant that the plan was always to sign Lebron and another star this year and that if they didn't get another star this year, then the plan was to try to get one the next year.
Basically, he's saying the plan was never to sign Lebron and then if they didn't get another star, to use up their cap space by signing 2nd tier or lower guys to multi-year deals.
