He isnt leaving the cakewalk East.

The east was a cake walk for him??? He’s been taken to two game 7s now. Boston took him to game 7 without their two top players. Even if he teams up with philly, the road through the title goes through Boston and then through Oakland.

What’s the point of staying in the east if you still don’t have a team that can compete with golden state or Houston? The writing is on The Wall. Boston is ascending Cleveland is descending.

If he comes to Utah to chase rings (so a significant pay cut would be necessary) he instantly makes Utah the best team in the league.
 
Huh? I don’t understand. Lebron would fit in perfectly here. Classy, plays hard on defense, and plays team ball.
'Think it's pretty clear I don't care for him much, no matter how great of a player he is. It would feel like buying a championship, which makes it difficult to have any emotional investment.

Also, I think it would mess up our team's chemistry.

Buying a championship?

Don’t all championship teams buy the championships by contracting big stars?

Cle, GS, Dallas, Boston, LA, San Antonio, all bought superstar players to win. Even Dallas and San Antonio. Dallas had kidd, Terry, Dirk, and chandler; 2 mvps and 1 DPOY. San Antonio had 3 HOFs and a budding superstar in kawhi.

If we are going to win a championship in this 21st century then we need to obtain at least one more star if not two.

Think we’ll score another spida or Rudy in this draft?
 
Lebron can somehow pull this off and win the championship you can just crown him the best ever. Its gonna take him averaging about 50 to do it though.
 
Boston will soon have all stars delux. Irving, brown, Tatum, and Hayward for sure. Morris and horford could potentially be all stars too. Boston is stacked.

Philly could potentially have 3 if their rookie who never played this year ever gets healthy (physically and mentally).

The jazz aren’t far away. But they aren’t going to get over the hump without adding another all star player at the 3 or 4.
 
I hate watching Cleveland. Their team is just horrible. It looks like they have no plan whatsoever. Everyone but Lebron looks like they are not NBA players. Lebron is supposed to make Players better? They look worse playing with him.

He was getting them so many wide open threes..... unfortunately he can’t make his teammates make the open shots every time.

Oddly, I don’t see him winning more than 1 against golden state. Yet somehow I can see him winning multiple games against Houston due to their lack of championship experience.
 
Lebron should team up with spida and Rudy. Just come to Utah. Cleveland is a dumpster and Los Angeles doesn’t have the talent. Plus, they’ll always compare you to Kobe. Come to Utah and win a few before you retire.

Seriously.
Rubio
Spida
Ingles
Bron
Gobert

Helluva starting lineup
 
I think tomorrow’s game 7 will determine who the champion will be.

I hope it’s Houston. I’m tired of watching this same golden state and Cleveland movie. It’s been played out.

Worst idea ever, because then I'd have to stop rooting for the Jazz. A championship is not worth my soul (even though I don't believe in souls).

fairweather indeed

I’m not even joking. Lebron has enough money. If he wants to chase rings then his best chance is to come here.

Philly doesn’t have it. Simmons is too similar And their center is made of glass.

Los Angeles doesn’t feel like the right fit to me. Will he always want to be compared to Kobe? To me that’s still kobe’s Town. And again, ball, kuzma, George, and Lebron aren’t good enough.

So who else is he going to go to? San Antonio? Don’t they have to unload kawhi?

Portland isn’t good enough.

If Lebron wants to chase rings he should come to Utah where he has a team good enough to win a few rings, can see his role gradually and gracefully, diminish as he ages, and be a hero to another small market team.

Ya as great as Lebron is I don’t think the cavs have a chance in hell against the warriors.

I didnt really mean he really does make them worse. Its just odd that they all look worse than they did on other teams. I blame Tyronn Lue first. But its worth pointing out.

Gotcha. And it’s a good point. Who has looked better there? No one? Is Korver better in Cleveland? I don’t think so. I guess Jeff green has looked good for a couple games.

It is weird though. Lebron should make everyone better but guys just suddenly can’t make open shots when the play with him. Doesn’t make sense
