Yeah, he saw all the shit KD got and still gets for going to the Warriors. I doubt he wants to deal with all of that.
As for the Lakers, if he waits and they sign a couple of max guys over the next couple of years and the youngsters keep developing, they may not need him or have the cap space to sign him.
you know and i know that Simmons and Embiid will crack under the pressure. Facing Miami is one thing. Facing Giannis or a beat up Celtics team is one thing.You'll get yours.
If you can make it that far.
seeing as Wall was hurt and the Wiz played some of their best ball while he was out- i almost think they might be willing to trade Wall before Beale. Esp. since Wall is on a shorter contract and would get them more assets in return.Is there any chance they will trade Beal?

Facing the King is another completely different animal.

Very true, but on the flip side how many teams are gonna max him after an achilles injury?Are you kinda surprised by this?
I am.
I get their hesitancy.
But, it's not like they can go out and add a game changer if he walks.
You really think that Lebron would not go someone because it looks bad? The guy who televised The Decision?
If they flame out in the first, yes.Is there any chance they will trade Beal?
Maybe Dallas, Suns....Very true, but on the flip side how many teams are gonna max him after an achilles injury?
I know they won't crack.you know and i know that Simmons and Embiid will crack under the pressure. Facing Miami is one thing. Facing Giannis or a beat up Celtics team is one thing.

That Team is mired in dysfunction at times.Oh I have no clue. Was just responding to @Mecca re: Beal or McCullum.
I do. He has said that, if he had it to do over again, he would not have done the decision. Lebron is at the point now where he's as much about his legacy as he is anything else. To jump to the Sixers (especially if the Sixers are the team to eliminate the Cavs) would get him killed by fans, media, etc. It would be exactly what KD did and continues to get killed for.
but, KD obtained his goal & won a ring. So, if it were to allow LBJ to achieve his goal why not?I do. He has said that, if he had it to do over again, he would not have done the decision.

Hmmm. Maybe. KD went to the Warriors who were already the best team in basketball coming off a 73 win season. Going to a Sixers team that is NOT the best team in basketball doesn't seem to be the same to me. But I could be wrong.
well--- one - if the Cavs and Sixers do meet- it certainly wont help the Sixers chances if the Sixers beat the Cavs. And if the Cavs beat the Sixers its not exactly a great thing either...Hmmm.

He certainly won't be televising his decision. LOL.
