    I really hate to start a thread on a rumor, but my son is friends with Harden nephew (They attend Shadow Creek high school) and he said that James does not want Lebron to come here. Take it for what it' worth. It's just he say, but if it's true that the star player don't want him here, then it's not gonna happen.

    Merge or lock. I'm just passing info

    I understand not wanting Lebron, he brings lots of baggage with him. That being said, if not Lebron did your son say whom the Rockets might want to pursue this summer instead?

    No. All he told me was what Harden nephew told him. He doesn't want the reason they win a championship is LeBron. Cause we all know that would be the narrative

    No Lebron would be ok.
    GP13 might be an even better fit. And I think we would need to move less people too

    Rockets are built around Harden. They are totally capable winning a couple of championships the way they are built.

    If Harden does not want LeBron here, LeBron will not be here.

    After last season I thought we needed him to win but honestly believe this year and this team's drive has changed my thought on it. Honestly if Ryno can make 12-15 points a game with Gordon scoring 12-18 I think we can win the whole thing just with this team. And if so there is no way we blow up the team for Lebron.

    @Codman has alluded to Kevin Love.

    Was there ever any clarification on the all star game ridicule from Lebron to Harden? Seemed like salt was there to me.

    LeBron is overrated. I dont get the obsession.

    If we really want to improve the team, we should sign Melo.

    How is it trolling? 9 months ago everyone wanted Melo. We had new threads pop up every day. Melo is the same exact play he was last year. And the year before that. And the year ...

    Whats changed?

    I'm sorry not to say your story is untrue, i believe the info you passed along but i have a hard time believing the powers that be (Tillman, morey)would tell Lebron James no we don't want you cause JH13 doesn't want you on the team. I'm no big lebron fan but he is a once in a generational player. You get those guys by any means..

    Kevin Love is great value as a player especially when you factor he’s signed for 3 more year after this one at the old max salary of 24m a year I believe.

    He’s a good fit on our team a better version of Ryno for only like 4m more a year.

    If Lebron leaves I’m sure we can get love for Ryno draft picks(multiple, sorry guys it is what it is) it’s saves the Cavs money and a year less of salary and they get a few late first round picks.
