I think this has been the overlooked story of the off season concerning where Lebron ends up. From what I've read many different times is that CP3 and Lebron are best friends. CP3 is godfather to Lebron's child and was even in the room with Lebron when it (can't remember if it was a he or she) was born. They have talked publicly about wanting to play together. IMO if a team wants to win the Lebron lottery they will trade for CP3 first. What does this mean for us Blazer fans? Not sure but it does throw a few interesting scenarios. Do the Bulls want Lebron and CP3 so badly that they give up Rose? Can the Blazers jump in on that to end up with Rose or Collison? The same could be said for the Nets. If the Nets want CP3 and Lebron could we jump in there and get Harris or Collison? Oh BTW, guess where CP3 is at right now. Hanging out with Lebron at his Skills Academy.
Short of the Bulls trading Rose for Paul in some kind of package deal, I just don't see Paul being moved in time before Lebron makes a decision in the next week.
If (and that's a mighty huge if) we could end up with Rose I'd stack Rose, Roy, Batum , LMA and Oden against a CP3/Lebron led team any day of the week.
CP3 Tweets... "**Couldn't convince him to tell me which team he's goin to but convinced him to join twitter lol...my brother from another mother @KINGJAMES" http://twitter.com/Oneandonlycp3
