LeBron James Could Form the Superteam to End All Superteams in Houston

capela on a max contract, not happening

 

Would be crazy.

You'd be at like $110 million on them alone. Even if you had NO one else under contract and just assigned roster charges you'd be in the luxury tax.

 

Yeah, I feel Capela is a 4yr 70M type deal. Not sure who is going to offer more in this market. Dallas looms, but more than that? That is what they offered Noel.

 

Question: If we can land LBJ, who would the fans root for, the Rox or GSW?

 

man has he come a long way. it doesn't even seem that long ago when hou drafted him and he was just a raw stick trying to get a feel for the game and many of us talked about his potential.

 

the Rockets

people are dying to see a team take GS down

 

Agree. But was just assuming worst case for tax calc

 

The only problem is it would be in the Western Conference Finals. It would be like the early part of last decade where the Spurs-Lakers winner would be a virtual lock to win the NBA Finals(2004 being the lone exception).

 

If Lebron comes in a trade then we can resign CP3, Ariza and Capela up to their maxes. Rockets will be $130M+ probably.

 

So most people believe LBJ wants to come here. It's all about making the salary cap work. Who will go? Assume RA, who will take him? Radio mentioned teams that need salary to meet the minimum $89M. That's cool, but what do we have to "incentivise" them?

 

If this happens, then teams will pretty much be uttering these words when they face us

 

Probably 2 late 1sts or a 1st and a asset on rookie scale.

 

The next 1st we have is 2020 right?

EDIT:

This post cleared it up.

 

Not even going to think about this until the offseason. So much can change between now and then.

 

true, but let’s say it ended up being Houston-Bos in the finals...those are 2 big market teams...the ratings would still be crazy due to the star power that Bron along with Harden, CP3, and Kyrie bring...Boston has a huge fanbase and no doubt our fanbase would grow exponentially due to bandwagoners so a lot of people would still tune in even if it’s a short series

 

It's cloudy with a 40% chance of the greatest team of all time forming.

 

LOL!

 

Yes, even you could start with me, James, and LeBron and we would still win multiple championships.
