Feigen: Rockets hopes for lebron haven’t changed (Plus team info)

Broussard first reported theres tension between CP3 and management and now he's saying that Harden doesn't want to play with Lebron.

 

A minor asset going back to Cleveland doesn't change the narrative at all. When Lebron left for Miami is was a SnT. Did that change any perception? Do people even remember what the Cavs got? Lebron brought a championship to Cleveland so that's what changes the narrative this time.

The only reason for Lebron to do an opt-in is to keep options open. If he's already decided on LA then it's a straight signing.

 

As I already said, if you're going to route Deng to another team then just do that deal as a separate stand-alone deal and then sign Lebron. The opt-in doesn't help you at all.

Also, the Lakers have to get rid of Deng and renounce Randle in order to have 2 max slots. This scenario doesn't change that at all.

 

Forget the Opt-in and Trade for a second.

There could be a very big reason for Lebron to do a SnT to the Lakers. A SnT might allow him to get a new No-Trade clause, which he could persist until his retirement. There are only two teams who he can get a new No-Trade clause with, and that's CLE and MIA...unless a new one is allowed to pass through via a SnT.

He might very well want that. Bima and I have discussed the legality of a No-Trade being allowed in a SnT. Both of us are in agreement that the CBA does not explicitly rule it out.

 

Hindsiggt was not 20/20. I said we upgraded everywhere after the moves last offseason. . People with half a brain on here were trying to tell everyone.

 

It does to me.

Getting CLE anything back (a late FRP) is a kind gesture that he doesn't need to force, and Cle fans and media will know he probably couldn't force anything more, so he controls a better narrative. And we know Lebron has that type of ego to control his image.

You can have a differing opinion on that, but you're also not a CLE fan.

 

That man has a agenda and its to keep Lebron far away from Houston. This the same man that said Cp3 made a mistake joining the Rockets last year. The Media really thinks they can influence players' decisions the way they've done execs in the past.

 

You have merely made up that idea...because you appear to think it's important to your argument to dismiss all other opinions.

I have family in Cleveland, so have somewhat of an "inside scoop" on years of fans following Lebron ... they all love him, and he honestly loves them/Ohio. To say its unrealistic for Lebron to force a minor trade as a kind gesture to The Land is silly.

Consider this: I'm convinced that your above, quoted statement is more unrealistic than you actually believe my statement is unrealistic.

I just believe you *think* it's unrealistic, because saying so helps your little internet argument of the day ... and that motivation to dismiss other ppl's opinions as unrealististic is the reason I compared you to Btg....you're too fockass'd on being right on the internet, from my seats.

 

Chris Broussard just reported that there's tension between @heypartner and @justtxyank . Stay tuned for more details. In the meantime, watch this Space Jam 2 trailer.

 

That would mean they actually are not fueding. I'm calling BS on that.

 

Wasn't sure where to post this, but appears the Most Improved Player thinks that LeBron should go to Houston...

 

eh, says that's where he should go. slight difference.
