Bumped after loss to Clippers.

If I'm building around Bron:

Patrick Beverly at PG
Scrappy defensive minded pg who can knock down the 3

Robert Covington at the SG
Perfect 3 and D guy, young too

Bron at the SF but really running point.

AD at the 4

Marc Gasol at the 5/also Al Horford would fit here. Veteran presence, plays D and can stretch floor and make great passes .

Head coach Jeff Van Gundy or Mark Jackson

Playoff lock. Conference final lock

Nobody wants to play in LA bro. nikkas been saying they want to play there and always end up flaking. What good player have they gotten in the last 5 years besides lebron?
The only big free agent before LeBron they’ve ever brought in was Shaq. Everyone else was brought in by trade while they gave up a bunch of packing peanuts. Kareem, the draft picks that were compensation for Gail Goodrich signing in Utah, the pick used on James Worthy, Kobe, Pau, and Dwight were all brought on by trade or the picks to get them were. It’s really a strange thing when you think about it that they’re rarely big players in free agency like that.

We already kno the recipe. He needs 2 other elite players, and a bunch of catch and shoot -- sharp shooters. And the other all stars, need to be able to close out championship games. Lebron's needs to be able sit in the corner *stress free* and watch the big shot being made. Might need more if we talkin western conference :yeshrug:

the same way Cleveland in 2015-16 did. They gave him a few solid 3 and D guys, one or two REAL 3 pt shooters, and a couple rebounders. And one great iso scorer to take the weight off him

Lakers got Ingram who's correct, they had Zubac, Reggie was a good addition, Kuzma is a great spacer when his J isnt broke as hell, ideally Josh Hart would fit that description too but he doesnt make shyt.

He’s gotta figure how he wants to play going forward. IMO he should be full time PF now. He can’t chase guards anymore so he should be a paint protector. On offense he should post more often. But Damian Lillard and Steph Curry are the two best fits for him out of any other players in the league. He desperately needs a scoring guard/playmaker/shooter than can open the floor up for him.

He’ll never play with Curry though. Also needs are SF that can shoot/create I.e Kris and he needs an active/athletic big than can protect the paint, finish on the lobs and occasionally step out for the jumper. Obviously Anthony Davis would be the perfect and ultimate fit but like others have stated Myles Turner would be a monstrous fit with Lebron

Don't waste your time

Bron is not interested in basketball anymore.

He's focused on his version of American Ninja Warrior.

This actually makes me appreciate Scottie Pippen even more. It's not easy playing a complimentary role. Most guys who end up playing with Bron are players who are all stars or superstars and have to adjust to a complimentary role.
Pip wasn't an established star when he started playing with MJ. His playstyle and skillset as the point forward complimented MJ and the triangle perfectly

I think Portland was the best basketball fit.
Dame
McCollum
Aminu
Bron
Nurkic

All Dame and McCollum do is shoot jumpers. They’d get incredible looks with Bron
Both those guys get a gang of their points off the dribble tho

relegate arguably the best backcourt in the league to being spot up shooters brehs


that would be a textbook definition of Bron ball :francis:

PG - kyrie/kemba/dame/healthy IT3
SG - Klay/beal/CJ Mac
PF - AD
C - cousins

snubs, all-stars & superstars that could play bron ball, just off the top of my head.

but at this point, he'd be better off taking a reduced role while still being the #1 option.
if lonzo is ready for primetime next year, let him run the offense and feed LeBron. that way bron, could conserve energy & still dominate. basically what lavar saw as the future for this team. it'd be showtime all over again.
