    If he goes to the Warriors just cancel next season. But I'm sure this is ESPN making up s*** like always.

    It literally says in the first paragraph that there's nothing to indicate that this would actually happen. It's all made-up bullshit by ESPN, the kings of made-up bullshit. Of course he'd CONSIDER sitting down with them...... just like I'd CONSIDER letting someone sleep with my wife for $1M. Ultimately the final answer would still be the same though......**** NO.

    Honestly, it's a little bit of an insult to LeBron
    I'd still want him.

    LeBron could join Horry and John Salley as the only players in the league to win championships with 3 different teams if he moves to Houston or GS, and would be the first superstar player to do it. Nothing being guaranteed, of course. Bob and Salley were excellent players, but not superstars.

    The problem with GS is that if he goes there, when it's talked about in the future, when LeBron's legacy is talked about, he'll be tarnished. It would be an asterisk hung around his neck as long as people talk about LeBron James. James went back to Cleveland in part, in my opinion, to take some of the tarnish off his legacy for making an embarrassing circus out of going to Miami to start a "super team" and win a championship. Why would he wack himself upside the head even worse by now going to Golden State after Miami, after Cleveland, after Durant already did what James would be doing there, but without a tenth of the baggage LeBron now has to carry around with him? As you said and as a whole bunch of us believe, Houston is a perfect fit. No baggage added to LeBron's cart, and he becomes a hero celebrated unconditionally by Houston and the Rockets and the league, in my opinion.

    What were people saying about Durant to GSW in 2016? :rolleyes:

    I'm not ruling anything out.

    i wouldn't mind this happening if it comes at the expense of draymond. i would LOVE to see him go to a team where he can't hide behind 3 all-stars. let's see how good he really is then. let's see if he will keep beating his chest and screaming then.

    How could they even clear max cap space for him without gutting their team? I think Curry, Durant, and Lebron combined make up the cap themselves. I'd love to see GS trade everybody and Lebron just tells them no. Pull a Deandre.

    Silicon Valley and warm weather do not belong in the same sentence. Whoever tweeted that is someone who has never been to the Bay Area. Fake news.

    Perhaps they meant warmer than Cleveland in the winter

    Every now and then they acknowledge that the Spurs exist.

    I'd be more surprised about the Heat, for one, they suck, but they also ****ed over his banana boy D. Wade. Uh, "banana boy" sounds kind of racist out of context, let's go with "boat buddy".
