    It's pretty wild how badly the Cavs (reportedly) coveted LNJ in our deadline trade with them only to have him during the playoffs plopped down on the bench being like...

    If Rob/Mag roll out the purple carpet for this guy and he still decides to spurn us...Then I hope y'all can give me a "card" to get on the LeBash Bus, cause I'm goin in on that dude in a way that makes Sirron's posts look tame.

    Man, I really can’t stand LeDouche but he is freaking ballin’! He looks so good and is just making the right plays.

    If he came here it won’t be that hard to cheer for him. (I can’t believe I wrote that!) He and Lonzo would be scary!

    I’m morphing into realdeal!!!!

    He is balling. You know he can beat the Celts on his own, if that's what it takes. This might go 7, who knows...

    It took me almost an hour to catch up 6 pages.... some of y'all should consider writing novels.

    In other news, f*** Lebron and f*** the C Bags.
    That is all.

    For the life of me, I can't figure out why I'd have a hard time rooting for this guy.

    3 assists with 7 turnovers, that's about as selfish as it gets ;)

    crazy that he's still only 33

    only concern of mine if he does come to LA is when does he start to eventually break down? he's only 33 but nearly 15 years in the league, 7 straight finals appearances, numerous other deep playoff runs, and olympics too. not to mention he's pretty much playing every minute for the cavs

    :D

    LeBron first two games in the ECF: 9 assists, 12 assists.
    - "Is he really making his teammates better though? They lost both games and his teammates aren't playing well, it's his fault."

    LeBron last two games: 12 assists, 3 assists in two wins with his teammates playing effectively.
    - "As selfish as it gets".

    And you all wonder why I can't stick around in this thread? :D

    Age/mileage is certainly a concern but I think he'd have several years left of star level play in the tank if he came into LA. Assuming he brought PG with him, he'd have easily more talent around him in LA than he did in CLE so he won't have to carry the load - esp. in terms of ball-handling and distribution because of Zo. He also puts a ridiculous amount of effort (and money) into preserving his health. Say what you will about his egotistical need to post his workout videos online but that's the dedication that has kept him going the way he has for this long. Add in Lebron is just a physical specimen like we've never seen and I don't see him breaking down for another 4 or 5 years - and even a broken down Lebron would be better than most in the league. He'd be at least as effective as Wizards Jordan, right?

    LeBron: Data suggesting I'm slow is 'dumbest s--- I've ever heard'

    Men lie, women lie, numbers ... also sometimes lie. That's LeBron James' contention, at least where the NBA's tracking data is concerned.

    That data, provided to the NBA by Second Spectrum, has tracked James' average speed during the postseason at 3.73 mph, making him the second-slowest mover (minimum 10 minutes) in these playoffs, just behind Jeff Teague and just ahead of Carmelo Anthonyand James Harden.

    When he was made aware of the stat after hanging 44 points on the Boston C Bags in a series-tying Game 4 win Monday night, James bristled.


    "That's the dumbest s--- I've ever heard," he told The Athletic's Jason Lloyd. "That tracking bulls--- can kiss my a**. The slowest guy? Get out of here."

    By the way, he's has run the farthest of any player besides Terry Rozier. You know, the young spry kid with the quick twitch.
