Chris Paul already recruiting LeBron to the Rockets

[Thegospel]

First day of training camp in Houston....


*Harden comes up court to get the ball*


Bron......"Nicca if you don't take your ass over to the corner and stay there".


Harden...

Yup. I can’t take anyone serious who can’t admiy Lebron is either unwilling or incapable of playing any other way.

 

[McPiff]

Yeah...no.

 

[Bobby Lashleys eyebrows]

Go to a team with a racist owner in a racist city who over paid Ryan Anderson with no cap space brehs.

 

[El Guapo]

Can’t imagine Harden wants this

We’ve seen playoff Harden. Who cares what he wants

 

[King Poetic]

LeBron will force d'antonio out....LeBron will want his homies to sit behind the bench...

LeBron probably will want to get a nikka like green and Ariza overpaid with huge ass contracts and after 1 year if they lose and he's out, Houston will be stuck with huge waste of contracts

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

CP3 gotta go to Cleveland

 

[Buckeye Fever]

If LeBron joins Houston and still get eliminated by Golden State, his legacy takes the biggest hit possible

 

[malbaker86]

I don’t see Kawhi coming back to the Spurs(could be wrong) and Manu needs to sit that ass down just like Tony Parker..
They should have kept Simmons..
Dude was giving the Warriors fits when he was out there..
Plus we still don’t know if Pop will return..
Losing his wife could be too much for the season..
Lebron don’t want the Western Conference smoke on a daily/nightly basis..

Manu actually had a great season but def gisnt the Manu of old obviously

 

[Jplaya2023]

Who's going to be stuck playing Bron Ball? Harden or CP3? But all that aside, there's a high chance to have a pretty ugly conflict with D'Antoni/Harden that may split the locker room imo.

Personally think San Antonio would give him the best chance to beat the Warriors. Lebron/Manu/Kawhi/Alridge would be pretty formidable.

Downside is he's going to have to battle it out in the west.

lebron's camp wants mark jackson to coach houston, he does not agree with how dantoni runs the offense.

LMA wants to be traded back to portland anyway

 

[who_better_than_me]

Same ppl saying this won’t work are the same fools who swore cp3 and harden wouldn’t work

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

career underachieving choke artist and loser cp0 tired of being sonned by curry and the warriors in the parking lot feverishly texting lebron like

why would lebron team up with 2 choke artist LOSERS

Because he wants to be the third

 

[sfgiants]

Durant & The Warriors*

Stay mad

 

[IllmaticDelta]

Yup. I can’t take anyone serious who can’t admiy Lebron is either unwilling or incapable of playing any other way.

lebron is actually a beast off the ball...just need passers who know how to pass like wade, delly, calderon (sometimes lol)

Top of the key Delly-Lebron screen and roll, the roll man pushes up hard to cover Delly at the 3pt line, leaving an open rolling Lebron who lays it up for an easy 2

Delly-Lebron high pick and roll, defense hedges and promptly switches, leaving a rolling Lebron on a much smaller defender, able to use his strength to catch clean possession and throw the lob down

Delly Lebron high screen and roll, defense hedges, Delly threads the pass to a charging Lebron down the middle of the key, last line of defense big is caught having to respect Kevin Love in the corner, which causes the rotation and rim protection to be late

Delly-Lebron baseline high screen and roll, man defender gets caught on Lebron screen, roll man defender doesn't push up, waits to contain Delly drive, defensive switch occurs in this possession, Lebron is open on the roll for an easy jam to the hoop as the switched defender is behind and too slow to stop the drive. Poor defensive rotations by Hawks to protect the rim (Or lack thereof)

Delly-Lebron high pick and roll top of the 3, roll man hangs back and switches to contain the Delly Penetration as the ball defender gets caught in the ball screen, Lebron rolls to the hoop and catches an easy alley oop pass for 2 points

Lebron does a hand off to Delly from the middle going sideline, then Lebron sets a ball screen for Delly going back middle, the ball defender gets caught in a quality pick, and the roll man defender switches over to contain the Delly drive, who lobs the ball up for a rolling Lebron, who makes a bullet one hand pass to an open Love in the corner due to the weakside defense rotating over to cover the Lebron roll... Love drains the three... Perfect example of how Lebron still uses his dangerous passing and efficient scoring without having to shoot jump shots playing outside in as the ball handler all the time

- Great Delly-LeBron High PnR founded upon a great solid ball screen by LeBron , which got Delly's man defender caught, forcing Carroll to contain Delly's penetration, leading to an easy oop for a rolling LeBron... Threat of shooters on each side of the court... Deadly play; the Middle PnR with spread shooters

...even kobe knows this lol

He crushed the rest of the league in PER last season with a 31.7, just shy of his career high. He shot a ridiculous 56.5 percent from the field. He scored more points in the paint per game than anybody else in the league. He dished out more assists than most point guards. He registered a higher rebound rate than Marc Gasol and Robin Lopez. Defensively, he's tall, quick and strong enough to guard just about anyone in the league, and he almost did.

And if all that wasn't enough, consider this: He now wields one of the most potent jumpers in the league. Only Jose Calderon averaged more points per spot-up play than James, according to Synergy Sports.

Most efficient spot-up players, 2012-13 regular season(Min. 100 plays)

Player Plays Points PPP
Jose Calderon 187 281 1.50
LeBron James 143 195 1.36
Kyle Korver 224 301 1.34
Steve Nash 114 153 1.32
Stephen Curry 226 294 1.30


James' name pops up near the top of all the jump-shot leaderboards for last season. And that includes the unguarded catch-and-shoot category, in which he effectively shot 73.1 percent once you account for the added value of 3s. Only five players were more lethal with open shots. While he couldn't find his shot in the Finals until the very end, he ended up converting 37.5 percent of his 3s in the postseason, which is well above average. (For perspective, Kevin Durant shot 31.3 percent from deep in the playoffs.)

If LeBron goes to Houston, GS getting swept. They may get game 1, LeBron like to take it easy and scope his opponents out game 1
