Source: LeBron starts process of evaluating suitors

[Shogun]

No way Bron goes to the Clippers...or the Western Conference, for that matter.

Heats, or Cavs.

 

[RedBull]

All jokes side, if Kobe REALLY wanted this I truly believe he could have it, but he must be the 3rd fiddle and let Bron takeover, but his pride and stubbornness wont let it happen.

 

[ROFL_GUY]

The difference IS that Wade is capable (obviously) of playing without out the ball in his hands and he's shown that since Bron came. Now, is CP capable of the same thing? Will he and Bron co-exist with handling duties? IMO CP needs that ball to be effective, Wade didn't.

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

He needs to evaluate how many steps he takes

 

[RedBull]

What have you been watching since Bron stepped foot in Miami? Wade hasn't handled the ball nowhere near as much before Bron came. What are you confused about? The obvious? Since Bron came Wade DIDN'T need the ball to be as effective, he learned how to play without, 2-2 finals was the result of such.

Breh, Wade remember when Wade relinquished and bowed down to Bron's leadership? His ball dominance did too.

what about the finals 2011?

 

[RedBull]

what about the finals 2011?

What about the years after? Don't ignore things to fit your point that's already wrong.

 

[Admiral Ackbar]

It's all smoke and mirrors. Lebron is out there for himself and forcing Miami to pay him more than anyone else can offer.

That makes no sense. Riley supposedly had ''all the ideas'' when it came to re-loading the roster. They even said they expected him to opt out but they've looked incompetent so far.

Yeah this is all a ploy or a plan.

 

[nomoreneveragain]

Never thought of this

 

[THOT CATALOG]

Never thought of this

Wade would get the max (20M+) if bron and bosh left. Riles would prob guide the rebuild for a couple years then retire, I think he's like 69 yrs. old. Miami will get jahlil next yr.

 

[Still Benefited]

As a Kobe stan and a 80s baby and someone who just grew up with Jordan basically ruining every other star player's legacy with complete domination and the attitude that he'd do it with or without his teammates, I started off looking at Lebron in a negative light, as this bytch made chip chaser but more and more I'm wondering if we're all looking at it the wrong way especially in the era of free agency where it's tough to keep teams together? Maybe he's ahead of his time.......Maybe he sees it differently, the right way and we're wrong?

We've always held superstar athletes to the standard that they should be loyal to a specific team and city regardless of how much the team upholds their end of the bargain in terms of putting them in the best position to win. I've watched Billy King waste Allen Iverson's entire career in Philly doing shyt like drafting Larry Hughes over Dirk and Paul Pierce. No matter how much the 76ers disappointed it was all good because Allen put asses in the seats......We all saw what happened to Kevin Garnett in Minnesota.

Lebron or any superstar playing a team substantially increases the valuation of a franchise and automatically makes any team in the league a contender, yet his legacy alone is hurt by losing......in addition to being underpaid in terms of being the best basketball player in the world & keeping the league afloat........He's taking the ball and putting it on his court and honestly as a guy who defends players over billionaire owners I'm starting to respect the fukk out of this. He's singlehandedly changing the rules...It's almost like Suge when he first started Death Row, he wasn't taking shyt from these Labels, he wanted his masters, Interscope gave him his masters, aight we can do business......or No Limit/Cash Money saying fukk your imprint deal, just distribute us and give us that 85/15 split nikka......Players are now exercising the little power they have. No longer can a team sit up here and hire incompetent gms and coaches, not make the right moves, mess up drafts and free agent signings for years upon because the valuation of the your franchise is in jeopardy when your star players leaves and throws you in the bushes just as you would a player who can't play. Seems like some bytch made chip chasing stack the deck create whole team of players with all 99s video game shyt but he's loyal to HIMSELF and winning and I've come to respect that. He doesn't owe loyalty to a team he singlehandedly makes better and increases the valuation of.......The rules have changed.

At the end of the day, bringing 3 different teams to an NBA finals isn't shyt to sneeze at......It sounds easy with a stacked roster but you still have to do the work, fight through the regular season, avoid injuries, have good chemistry and make the shyt happen. We all can name plenty of teams in every sport that seemed stacked that didn't. So fukk it, go to Cleveland, Phoenix, LA Clippers, whatever.......he gets them another chip and the Heat fall off like Cleveland did when he left or Orlando did when Shaq left.....and his legacy doesn't change for me. He's a great player that singlehandedly makes teams contenders that changed the way we look at how players should provide service/loyalty towards teams. We all knew it was a business when it came to gms/owners trading players (which involves them changing their living situation at the drop of a fukking dime), cutting players (players losing their job) now the shoe is on the other foot.

I definitely see him as a nikka who was "ring padding" and chasing legacys....dude went to Miami to be on a stacked team with Bosh and Wade,get about 4 rings there to get in striking distance of Kobe and Jordan....then he was always going to go back to Cleveland and try to get one because the story of him winning in Cleveland is too great to pass up and a huge feather in the cap of his "legacy" and legend in his hometown....I agree its all very calculated by Bron and his team to boost the legacy of Lebron to try to elevate him past Kobe and Jordan.....get that manufactured shyt outta here

And Lebron had pressure on em becuz he would get to to playoffs and finals and disappear for unexplainable reasons sometimes...sorry but its hard for me to respect it,but its working on the rest of the world
