What Will LeBron Do This Summer?

[DJ]

That would only happen if you trade for Kawhi.

I understand your position.

But, if he checks out physically, you trade the entire lot of them for Kawhi.

Ingram COULD develop into a All-star.

Ball MIGHT be a triple double machine if he learns to shoot.

Kuz should be a great spark plug for years to come.

Kawhi IS a top 5 player in the NBA.

You trade 2 quarters and a 50 cent piece to get a solid dollar every time.

The Lakers are shopping Ball to get another 1st rounder to add to the trade package for Leonard.

 

[Mecca]

But, if he does? It would add to his legacy restoring the Lakers franchise and winning 3 Championships with 3 different teams.

Please.

LeBron only with the kiddie corps is not beating the Rockets let alone the Warriors.

Which LeBron knows because he tried to get Durant to the Lakers with him.

If you get Kawhi and pick up some guys like Gay, J Crawford etc on cheap deals, maybe.

LeBron and the Disney Kids?

No.

Yeah I see your point. I guess I'm just a stubborn old man.

That's terrific.

Still haven't seen anything that stated that would be enough.

Again: if you get Kawhi all that changes.

Those two and some great vet talent have a shot.

LeBron with the young guys?

Not without a catastrophic injury to the Warriors and Rockets.

LeBron wasn't enough by himself in Cleveland.

The Lakers have a better collection of young guys.

But, that would get you a game or two, not a playoff series win.

No.

Oh.....I must have missed where I said James and just the kids would win a title....

 

[Mecca]

Yeah I see your point. I guess I'm just a stubborn old man.

If the Spurs are willing to deal him, you do it.

But, I think the Lakers should get LeBron and roll the money to next Summer via a big one year deal....

Maybe a guy like Cousins?

Next year, Klay, Butler and Kawhi could be had and you wouldn't have to lose anyone.

Plus, it will give you more time to evaluate the guys you have or build their trade value.

 

[Mecca]

Oh.....I must have missed where I said James and just the kids would win a title....

You just asked what if he did.

I answered your question...with Kawhi, maaaaaaaybe.

With the kids, hell no.

 

[DJ]

With the kids, hell no.

Yeah, win a title.....didn't say with WHO on the team.

You assumed.

 

[Mecca]

No, I specified.

You are just in your feelings.

Or hungry...

Ps. If you don't get Paul George prepare to get skewered with all wrong incorrect posts.

* prepares to hand DJ his ass all evening*

 

[Mecca]

Are you saying the Clippers run is over in Staples?

Speaking of, where’s @Mecca ?

I'm here...lol

 

[Mecca]

I said that earlier. As long as I've known the lady (8-9 years, at least), she's always very active during FA (before, during, and after).I hope everything is alright.

You just talked to me here yesterday....lol

You told me my Fallas post about the LeBron Jersey was out of bounds.

 

[Mecca]

He always has some kind of nagging injury.

What do you think about the Deandre news?

Look at it this way....

Had he not changed his mind after the Hostage situation, you might not have Smith or Doncic....

not many back courts in the game i would prefer if i was rebuilding a team that DSJ and Doncic. Pretty unreal.

I think Jordan would be a great fit in Dallas running with Doncic- although- dude is getting up there- hes not old- but hes not a springy 23 year old either.

i dunno.

Mecca- imagine these two situations

LeBron- opening up Space Jam 2 in a huge LA premiere- having the #1 selling jersey in the game again BY FAR-

or - getting the 3 seed in the East and hoping the Cavs make a move so you can still get back to the Finals.


If the Cavs would not have fucked up last summer with Griffin and Irving I would feel a lot better. That is what did them in. Although, from what i heard- the Cavs had a deal for PAul George that was contingent on LeBron signing long term since the deal gave up Love and multiple picks. Once JAmes would not commit, the Griffin all of a sudden did not have motivation to stay seeing the writing on the wall, and Kyrie the same. If last year LeBron tells the Cavs- I AM STAYING- he likely has Kyrie AND George and the Kyrie trade never happens because they try and work through it.

I know lebron has two homes in LA and that is why he might be there...

But why right on the eve of free agency?

And why aren't his kids there too?

It's not a coincidence.

His kids could be with Grandparents.

His kids could have been there and the Paps respected him enough not to shoot them.

His Son is big in the AAU circuit. So, he could be playing a tourney.

But, I'm guessing LeBron and Wifey got some alone time after renting that pad in Anguilla.

Kids could have just stayed in California.

Yeah, I like what they are doing in Dallas.

Obviously, you'd take a young Capela over DJ.

But, DJ is a safer investment to Boogie and a better choice for sanity sake over Dwight.

I remember last year when he refused to commit to get George.

I can't knock him for putting his son in the best position to be successful.

We clown his mom on the regular. She couldve been many things. But, a neglectful parent wasn't one of them and she didn't have 1/10th of the resources he has.

 

[Kold]

Let's just see how it all plays out first. IF he comes here alone, let's see what else happens, or let's see how the youngins develop over time throughout this year and next. Not everything can be a KD situation where it's a for sure ring
