You don't want Lebron next summer?

With Irving wanting to be traded......I don't know if I want James on the Lakers next summer. Irving is being unfairly criticized imo for requesting to be traded. Ever since James has returned to Cleveland it's all about him, he dominates the publicity there. It's LeBron's world and the other players are just living in it. He's a huge media attention wh0re.

Remind us of where Cleveland was at before Lebron again. I don't care for Lebron but he deserves the attention he gets in Cleveland. They won 19,21,24, and 33 games in their 4 years without lebron. They were a trash franchise before Lebron and will be a trash franchise after lebron

This is hilarious.

And Kobe wasn't an attention whore? Shaq? Being an attention whore is part of being a superstar (unless you're Timmy or Dirk).

I'm no Lebron fan, but I'll gladly take him on the Lakers (especially as an FA) and enjoy the winning and possible title runs that comes along with the attention whoring.

Exactly. If you can get Lebron for 3 for 4 years and make the finals every year during that time period and win 1 or 2 titles then you could careless about him being an attention whore.

Nah, I'll take him.....just wanted to see who was lurking.

When Westbrook and George resign with OKC next year the can dump Kanters salary and there will be room for LeBron in OKC. Those 3 would be too much for GS.

LOL at James going to OKC.

 

[DJ Fieri]

With the luck the Lakers have had.....James would sign with the Lakers and then turn into Steve Nash.....somebody who starts breaking down physically. That's my only fear. When he starts to break down, it's gonna look ugly.

That might look like a good trio but the good thing about James in Cleveland and GS.....both had the right role players. It's not always just about the Big 3. You have to surround those players with the right role players/complimentary pieces. The Thunder wouldn't have that.

Nah, "The Curse of the Short Buss" has been lifted.

@Mecca

Your boy Sindarius Thornwell was on Live PD tonight

Cops in South Carolina pulled over a car chasing a Porsche. Turns out it was Thornwell's girlfriend. She was kicking him out of the house, he drove off to go to party and she chased him down.

Wow...Auspicious start to his future success off the court.

Said nobody ever.

We need this kid. Hope he pulls his head out of his ass.

Right, because the Lakers have zero experience excelling in that type of environment.

Maybe Houston....

But, I'd rather live in OKC than Cleveland, even with the tornadoes.

No disrespect to folks from that area.

But, it's a shithole....sorry.

That's a terrible comparison because of the age difference and also injury history that nash had

Cleveland has the best medical facilities in the world!!!!!!!!!!

Report: James Harden and Chris Paul teaming up against Russell Westbrook in Drew League

No they wouldn't though.

LeBron and Westbrook wouldn't compliment each other that well. Talent might be comparable to GS, I can't see the fit working well enough to win there.

Now, if Russ and LeBron went to LA where Russ would play more off the Ball? That might be a different story.
