The best strategy: If you have this, you have 70% chance to get LeBron in July 2018

71.3 (repeating of course)

 

Best chance, recruit LeRoy Jenkins......profit.

 

If LeBron came here he wouldn't take the max and neither will cp3 they both will take cuts to be able to keep the present roster here and lose Anderson

 

Actually, if Lebron came here he would demand the max and CP3 would take the hair cut. I think he is fine with that if it means getting LeBron.

 

All of your percentages are in the most literal sense of the phrase, completely random.

Your justification for your random percentages is because you know it?

Like, what?

 

I want to ask where you came up with these random percentages, but you are a scientist so I will blindly accept them as scientific fact!

Take that for data

 

Make sure we note that the owner has been on record saying he is more than willing to go into the luxury tax to make this team a championship team so expect him to spend this summer!!!!!!

 

Who said anything about a 1 year contract?

 

Welcome @ballscientist1 to Clutchfans

First) I would rule out the dark horse 76ers. Too raw. Other options would appeal more to LeBron imo.

Second) Dan Gilbert “was” willing to spend into oblivion for LeBron and a championship or championships.
IMO Gilbert is willing to allow the breakup of the Cavs as currently constructed. Much like Miami, LeBron
has maxed out a teams financial limits during a team’s allotted time period for winning a championship or
championships.

Reports say LeBrons wife has requested a move to their LA home as a full time move by 2018. Could be
interpreted as a cry as, “just get me out of Cleveland......please, move!!”

Cavs are coming to a crossroads. Some individuals in LeBrons inner circle suggest LeBron has already made
a decision to leave Cleveland this summer if they fail to win a championship this season. Kyrie Irving trade request
to Celtics may be a by-product of the Cavs trying to trade Irving to the Clippers for CP3 sooner. A means of
appeasing LeBron by acquiring CP3.......having been defeated by the Warriors somewhat easily months
prior. I believe the rumor was Love/Kyrie Irving for CP3/Blake Griffin swap.....since the Cavs couldn’t beat
the Warriors with LeBron posting 33.6 pts/ 12.0 Rbs/ 42.4 mins and Irving posting 29.4 pts/ 4.0 Rbs/ 40.3 mins
in that finals series.

Would DeAndre Jordan and some other change in pieces win a title this year? In turn keeping LeBron in
Cleveland longer......beyond this summer. Cavs players giving lackadaisical effort in much of this season
is a signal to me that players don’t have their heart into the game. “Why should we care about playing
hard if LeBron is going to leave us anyway” type mentality. Cavs would be wise to make some changes
by the deadline; as that switch is probably not going to be turned on when they want it at the end of
the season.

Third) LA is home. Wife will be happy. Will join forces with Paul George. Probably won’t challenge
the Warriors in the first year due to numerous changes and disruptions (LaVar trying to undercut coaches
in order to get himself in position to be named coach.......because he thinks he is a great AAU coach & only
he knows how to coach/pamper his sons). I’m sure he will pull the Lakers off the court if he doesn’t like
a refs call; like he did protesting the female ref this past summer. That’s great coaching.

Fourth) Rockets best option to beat Warriors ASAP at seasons end. Harden set for years while still in prime.
CP3 loves the systems. CP3 just bought a huge mansion. CP3 will get huge extension this summer (if he
wants multiple years of security over going yr-to-yr). CP3 likes Ariza on same team (liked Ariza while at NO Pels).
Capela is excellent prototypical center for this small-ball era (perfect for D’Antoni schemes). If Capela walks;
DeAndre Jordan is willing to join Rockets (from Houston and would love to play in system w/CP3), Tucker/E Gordon
contracts under control for next yr. Rockets understand that Pace & Space are very effective and that LeBron
would do well in this system with the current players (perhaps some tweaking). With LeBron and Tucker, do
the Rockets allow Luc MaM walk? Do the Rockets trade Tucker if they have LeBron and re-sign Luc MaM?
Luc MaM played with CP3 with LA Clippers and came to Houston on the cheap because of CP3. Gerald
Green fits right in and probably would love to continue with the Rockets. Up and coming young player(s)
that can possibly contribute in the form of Qi (if he puts on 15-20 pounds in the offseason) and Hartenstein
if he works with a shooting coach in the offseason and turns some baby fat into muscle. I expect one if not
both to be used in moving the Ryan Anderson contract; but if one remains...will get some burn time with
the Rockets second or third units next season. Especially if LeBron joins the Rockets starters. There should
be a lot of garbage time next season.

I’m also a fan of Gentile, Jon Diebler, Troy Williams if they remain or come from overseas.
Personally, i like the Rockets chances of landing a LeBron moving forward.

 

But doesn't LeBron just seem miserable in Cleveland? Actually, he really never seems very happy wherever he is.

 

Incorrect. A couple months ago Rich Paul gave an interview saying LeBrons only priority at this point is winning, money doesn't matter. He was told this when asked about the Lakers so that was probably a lowkey "no" because LeBron wont win **** with the Lakers

 

That team is garbage.

Basically losing IT, Shump and jr for Jordan?

Calderon
Wade
Lebron
Love
Jordan

Bench

Korver
TT
Crowder

That team wouldn’t beat Boston or even the raptors.

If I’m lebron I rather go to the lakers and team up with Paul George, Ingram and ball.

That team isnt great but it’s got a higher ceiling than that Cavs squad.

Deandre jordan is not a game changing move for any team. He’s a nice player to have but he’s not the difference in any team beating the warriors.
