what does him almost getting traded there this year have to do with next year ? first of all that was TRADE, not him being a free agent, picking his destination.

bron is old and doesnt play defense anymore.

him saying he wouldve stayed is just him not trying to sound like an ass. he would feel it out and see how it went and then decide, same as he is doing with OKC

long term, he should want to be with stars around his age, like russ, harden, or kawhi. why go into a long term contract with an aging star ? that isn't smart

first, because Lebron at least has another 3 years as a top 10 player. so what players are you thinking that PG13 would be able to join that are THAT good? if PG13 is serious about a chip, I dont think he will get it with Westbrook. Durant couldnt. Melo is on his last big contract and the downside of his career. aint nobody going to OKC. Leonard and Davis would more than likely go to Clips then there. this isnt all about Lebron. its about PG wanting to play in L.A.

Bron doesnt play D because he is too focused on the offense but he is capable of locking down just like he did Porzingas earlier this year. If Bron has the offense around him then he can focus more on D. if he has defense around him, like say Beverley and Bradley for instance.... then how much D does he need to play? when you have a good core team defense is much better than relying on a couple of good defensive guys.

why are putting names the clippers have already traded or will trade soon ? :gucci:

What you talking bout?
They still have Blake, they still have Lou and they can keep Bev or trade Bev if they like. They will get rid of DJ for sure though. Bron, PG and Blake+ role players.




And since you like posting this, here you go:gucci:

Positioning more for Kawhi, PG, and AD in the next few years than Bron...

while I agree with this somewhat, you dont leave that much to chance over that period of time. you have to start constructing to beat the Warriors and the Rockets NOW. you cant out-wait those teams because by that time some other teams will have emerged. the will be very aggressive this summer and I think this trade and the subsequent ones (DJ) will serve as proof to that. cap flex dont mean anything if you are a cellar dweller. West is all about that winning culture so dont expect any tank jobs either.

bron is old and doesnt even like to practice. he also becomes an injury risk the older he gets. sorry, but going with lebron over younger stars would be dumb AF, and i highly doubt PG goes that route.

if lebron needs offense around him to play defense, he would need A LOT more than PG. bron and PG is not even coming close to beating the warriors.

the team he has in OKC is in a better position to succeed than than old bron next year. he's got russ and adams is only like 24. OKC matches up will with every single contender. they only need a better bench.

he said that before but Balmer wasnt the owner when he said it. that's the difference. he isnt going to play for the team because of the name? :what: because mostly everything else has changed. if there is one team he can go to that will boost his legacy by winning its the Clippers because that franchise has been the worst for as long as it has been around. Clips think they have a shot at him I am sure. If he doesnt, they can still put together a good team in the next couple of years if they can land the FA's, which I think they can.
It's the Knicks breh.

Imagine being the guy that brought both Cleveland the city and the New York Knicks franchise a title.
