LeBron leaving after this year is pretty much inevitable right?

On one hand I think he leaves, on the other hand there's no team in the West that is ready to compete with him.

According to his delusional fan base, LeBron makes team an instant contender tho.

LeBron to Orlando :mjgrin:
He should join the Wizards..that rich paul/john wall/klutch sports connection.

Is LeBron willing to play off ball and let a ball dominant point guard run the show?

He's never shown he's willing to do that in his career, but he's also never played with a top notch point.

I don't think ppl realize that the gap isn't that big between the warriors and the Cavs. Realistically they just need a wing defender and better defensive effort. They don't need another star
I actually agree with this. Game 3 was theirs, Game 4 was a blowout in their favor, and Game 5 was up for grabs late.

Brawn & Kyrie are incredibly difficult players to stop, and they have an array of shooters around them. Their issue is that "flip the switch" mentality, impossible to live by that and be ready to go 7 with the Dubs defensively.

I've heard a lot about Bron's brand and how this next move will be about enhancing his brand, but shyt leaving his hometown team twice just seems like a bad move for his overall brand. I really can't see him leaving for that reason alone

He's gonna come to the Lakers because his Space Jam 2 contracts says he needs to be in LA full time while making the movie.

Bron knows he can't beat the Warriors, he's gonna take his 3 rings, go to LA, and build up his production company with his boys.

He brought them a ring and Dan Gilbert is already making moves to drive him a way. Bron will be able to handle the PR for this move better than last time. Even when he went back to Cleveland a lot of people were speculating it wouldnt be the last move he makes.

What about Bron and the Banana Boat squad going to the Knicks? Not sure if they want to form it in the West and have to scrap it out every night. The West is monster for the next few years

if they join up it won't be on the Knicks because its an absolute joke franchise. Even for the Lakers, the fact Jeanie finally fired her bro and brought Magic in makes Bron possible. If it was still Jeanie and Jim fighting all the time while Mitch signs Mozgov and deng, no way Bron is even thinking about coming here.

Part of what made Jeanie finally settle the Lakers family beefs is because she knew they needed respectability again to attract stars. Lakers FO was a joke ever since Jerry Buss died.

If Bron left no cavs fan should hate on him. He delivered a chip nobody thought was possible and gilbert is a known fukk boi. Can't blame Bron if he wants to find a better situation after Dan's recent fukk ups.

Breh have you SEEN all the stars that have left or been traded to the West these past few days??? Lebron could rest and not play for 40+ games this season and still sweep the playoffs to his 8th straight finals appearance. Those "Lebron is DEFINITELY going to the Lakers in 2018!!!!" rumors were BS to begin with; now with all the talent migration to the West this offseason there's no chance in hell he's going anywhere for at least the next 2 years.

but how many times will he want to be embarrassed in the finals tho that's my question :ehh:
