    Windhorst was just on a hoop collective podcast saying LeBron doesn’t want to play with young players or players that can’t shoot.

    Basically narrowed it down to Houston, Boston or staying in Cleveland.

    Said Cavs would be open to Opt in and trade scenario as long as they got some sort of non Anderson based haul in return.

    LeBron hates Houston and Clutchfans......just kidding.

    LeBron wants his own team. Not join Hardens team. Lakers are going scorched earth....Lakers become LeBrons
    team with Paul George his side-kick. If Kawhi wants to go to your team....you try to work it out. If not Kawhi a Laker, then
    the Lakers will add DeAndre Jordan or Cousins or some other talent. Maybe Durant.

    I don’t see how Boston is even a option with Irving there and yet to play any significant playoff minutes from him. The celts basically have two prime pieces that haven’t smelled the court together yet and Hayward is .

    I see Houston or Cleveland with LA being a distant 3rd. LA would have to gut and trade all the scrubs currently on their roster to be in the Same realm as Houston.

    Windhorst literally just said the exact opposite of what you’re saying. Said LeBron doesn’t want to be “piece A” in a rebuild

    Philly has a chance for sure. They have assets they can flip into a guy like Kawhi. That would definitely entice Bron.

    If LA can get PG, Cousins and Lebron.... they still would loose to the Warriors and barely hang with our rockets.

    Man gtfoh. You don't know what Lebron wants. Stop pretending

    Do you know what conclusion you can make about Lebron? He always makes basketball decisions first. This ain't about some petty childish I'm the man type BS. This is about beating a historically great team in GS that is just getting effin started.

    I understand that it isn't a lock but we have a legit shot.. we are actually the favorite.

    Smoke n mirrors. We will see how it plays out. Wouldn’t be the first time pundits have been used for misdirection.

    Your little heart is going to be broken because you are a little b*****. Since when has LeBron said anything whoa s***
    towards Houston. LeBrons wife wants to be in their house by 2018 on a more permanent basis. Do I need to bring
    up that article? Google it b****.

    What he said. I think I'm already tired of the LeBroller-coaster :D or maybe more specifically how now everyone has a LeBron source or they got his number, they know what he's thinking, where he's going, what he wants, how he feels...

    This ****'s only gonna ramp up, maybe starting Saturday (if they lose tomorrow).

    You must be a Lakers fan. "He bought a house!! OMFG.. he bought two houses!!"

    As far as the name calling goes, I won't partake. Just know this.. my life > your life. <shrug>


    The Rockets aren't desperate so nobody will be heart-broken. Now, go eat a Snickers.

    This is how Windhorst talks to “avoid getting aggregated”.

    And yes, there are no done deal options. Including staying put on the Cavs. But I think they laid out the tiers of interest fairly clearly

    Fathorse gotta stop with that.

    Compared to Cleveland, all the rumored teams are better options than Cleveland.

    Because he can't build Golden State 2.0 or better, "Welp, no great options out there! Better stay put in Cleveland!" ... No.
