Should LeBron James join Houston Rockets in free agency?

How does LeBron James get to the Rockets?
This is entirely complicated, especially with the assumption that LeBron James won’t change teams for less than his starting max salary of $35.5 million next season. If that’s truly the case, then really the only way to make this work is to get his good friend Chris Paul to take a paycut in free agency this summer. The Rockets would also need to hemorrhage salaries they’re on the books for next season. Let’s say the Rockets agree to terms with CP3 to dip to $20 million for next season. And LeBron comes in at $35.5 million. Add James Harden’s $30.4 million salary and Houston sits at $85.9 million with 10 roster spots to fill.

Even for a math wiz like Daryl Morey, this becomes pretty insane to fit together. Ryan Anderson ($41.7 million over next two seasons), Eric Gordon ($27.5 million over next two seasons), and PJ Tucker ($16.3 million over next two seasons and just $2.5 million guaranteed for 2020-21) all have to find their ways into straight salary dumps. The free agent rights to Trevor Ariza must be renounced. Nene and his $3.6 million have to leave as well. The tricky part for keeping things manageable is finding a way to keep Clint Capela as a restricted free agent. They can make it work but his $7 million cap hold makes things a little complicated. It leaves roughly $8 million for nine remaining roster spots.

In a perfect world, they could wink and agree for Capela to take the $3.4 million qualifying offer and then take care of him next summer. Then they fill in the roster with minimum gems Morey can find. It looks pretty complicated and highly unlikely on the surface but Morey has created space out of nowhere before. If anybody can find this room for LeBron to fit into the mix, it’s Morey.

James to Houston, as is, would match the over the topness of KD to the Warriors... in theory.

Would LeBron want to fall back on his record breaking if it resulted in rings tho?
