    If LeBron does go to LA I hope it's the Clippers
    and not the Lakers. Who knows though. What if Paul Goerge and LeBron James surprise us all and go to Sacramento?

    Plus playoff seeding in the NBA might be getting an overhaul so conferences wouldn’t even matter.

    I chose Philly because I don't think he wants to give up his real estate that is also known as the (L)Eastern Conference. I don't know how the Celtics could get him nor do I think he stays in CLE (#HeGone). However, I understand why Philly can be a bad fit because it'd stunt the growth of Simmons and Embiid. Simmons needs to develop a jump shot and Embiid needs to stay healthy.

    He's going to either LAL or San Antonio.

    Or stay in Cleveland. Guessing another 1 + 1 contract.

    I just hope Decision 3.0 doesn't drag on through the middle of July, because no other FA/team will make their moves until Bron is off the board.

    Gives a whole new wrinkle to the idea of Lebron and his son playing for the same team.

    Lebron apparently dislikes Houston:

    https://nba.nbcsports.com/2018/06/12/report-lebron-james-says-he-doesnt-like-houston-as-city/


    Doesn't mean he won't suck it up for 3-4 years just to beat the Warriors but I imagine if Pop pitches very well, Lebron might prefer the Spurs instead.

    And in which case, Portland might just be the darkhorse contender some keep saying they are (no actual chance obviously) since Portland can say they have younger talent than the Spurs.

    If this was just about basketball Portland would have as good of a shot as anyone.

    But it’s not, and it sucks.

    LeBron ain't worried about a winery man... He's rich enough to do that in Italy if he wants.
