    Interesting about Capela (sad face) and LeBron announcement near the same time.

    Guessing Capela was the Star LeBron needed to go.

    That billion dollar Nike contract about to get James paid. Whatever number of shoes he needs to sell to get the full billion, he can achieve it in LA.

    “The payout is largely contingent on sales, meaning there's no way to project what kind of staying power the LeBron brand will have. “

    Never a doubt that Lebron was done playing competitively after these last finals.

    What does the Lakers cap situation look like now? Are they still threats for CC?

    Yes. Clint's max isn't even much compared to what they had prepared for PG.

    He signed as a UFA, meanwhile Houston had CP3's bird rights.

    Waiting for the Dan Gilbert bash on LeBron again letter.

    Also waiting for his first tweet that just reads "***"

    They have the cap space, but with Lebron there now they are more likely to preserve their space for a star player in 2019 than hamstring themselves with a max contract for a non-max player.

    Unless Lebron is taking over GM duties, of course.
