    LeBron James is giving the Lakers more time to make the moves they need to make, rather than have than have the Spurs having all the leverage.

    LeBron James was never coming to the Rockets.

    It will still be interesting to see how it all plays out. We could see this draw out for awhile while the Lakers try to line up the pieces.

    Well, well well! Things are happening, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I hope we don't end up with the ugly!

    Someone beat you to it? :eek:

    LeBron James, wrong decision bro.

    Lebron can add all he wants. Hes not winning anything in LA


    Everyone on tv is all excited lol. The best player in the world is a free agent. That practically 90 percent of the league cant sign.

    Whatever happens, I hope Morey figures out how the Rocks can benefit from it.

    Order of blame:
    1. I blame Gilbert for being stubborn, thinking he can still convince Lebron to stay, and doesn't want to appear like Morey bent him over
    2. I blame Ryno's contract
    3. I blame Popovich for not keeping his franchise player happy like Rudy T did
    4. I blame Lebron
    5. I blame Cupcake
    6. And lastly, I blame Harden for his bad body language that scared Jeremy Lin

    Him opting out gives the Lakers more time to do what they need to do.
