    So Chris Paul's legendary recruiting efforts got us "not much" in consideration by Bron.

    Smh.

    Same.
    Plus, I truly don't think Harden would have been for it.
    Having LeBron on the team would raise questions about whose team it is.
    Harden has the ego of a superstar and wants the best glory for himself.

    Winning a ship with LeBron would never feel like a ship for Harden.
    For Harden, winning a ship means doing so with him as the unquestioned best player and leader of the team.

    LOL!
    Back when the debate was going on I said the Lakers were his best option - Market, acting future, cap room, young players, etc...
    Everybody told me I was crazy... "career suicide" is how some termed it - while insisting that if he really wanted to contend that Houston was the only choice...

    Almost makes me want to go back and tag old threads and exchanges... but I'm far too lazy for that... lol

    I can safely say, had Lebron actually wanted to come, the only player who would stop Tilman from signing him would be Lux mbwah d'Tax Profit.

    Maybe, it would have increased the chances for the Rockets to sign him.

    Who really cares. I would not like the rockets near as much with a dbag like Lebron. Sure he’s an all time great. But the dude is soft as ****. I’d rather lose than root for a loser like that.

    I mean this is ridiculous post. Lebron can't be a loser, soft, and an all-time great..

    I don't root for Lebron either.. I kind of just watch him play basketball. He still deserves everyone's respect for making the NBA hold his pocket.

    I just wanted to make you work. If you are going for the I told you so's, you might as well show the receipts to rub it in a little bit more.
