he's not going to take a paycut, so its not happening
Absolutely. Welcome him ASAP
Just what the Spurs need. Fills 5 boxes.
Great for Wama to have a mentor like Lebron
Only if he will be a sub
I'd rather we extend Tre Jones
Yes but nothing over 10 mil a year
No
My butt is still sore from Pop and GNob giving that 2013 Champ away
Lebron stole my girlfriend and I'm not over it.
Other. Specify in comments
Why would LBJ take the vet minimum when he's playing like a top 20 NBA player? I think he would be insulted by someone asking him to take the vet minimum. He's won les. There is no reason to come here. He's staying in LA where he can work on his career outside of basketball.

Not need for Victor to mentor some random 45 old vet.
Pop is 90, not 45.
He himself floated the idea.
That was before Bronny had his heart issue.
Lebron was real big on being a son/father combo on the same team.
Would definitely take him, but never fear people who despise Lebron, he will never come here.
If you could sign lebron you do it no brainer. It would be arguably the smartest and best basketball player ever teaching our franchise player.
And the absolute best part about signing lebron is that you know he would get collins, sochan, branhim, and wessley up out of here. First thing he does when he goes to a team is get rid of the bums. I would want him signed for that alone.
for all teams. 30. Ring is sure thing as member of the winning crew.
Don't need a drama queen right now, and Bronny is only a high draft pick because of name only and not worth it.
Storytelling DO work on people...
This is called capitalism. He should get every single penny he can get from the billionaires that have made several fortunes from his presence over the past 21 years.
He's top 2 for sure. He was the best player for LA in that series even though AD had some stretches. For a guy people say is about to retire, he looks top 10 in the league.
Any pick at that level is seriously hit or miss. If you get Lebron with it you cannot lose.
For sure?? What are your criterias?
He's very smart in a cynical way and storytelling driven.
He knows when and how to score to secure his stats and rarely appears when it really matters. The whole team would have to be centered around him bc he can't play with a PG anyway.
I'm not a hater but as usual it's all about the balance between the positive and the negative. The latter wins by a large margin to me.
You could also make a strong case as him being one of the worst leader of all time (among the greats), refusing any accountability and historically putting all the blame on his teamates.
Why would anyone want him?
The only possible benefit of Lebron coming to San Antonio is that Pop would finally be forced to retire after the spurs fail to do anything meaningful. That is the Lebron MO — trade assets to get his guys, then skip town or fire the coach when the team fails.
Too many instances of showing up when it matters to mention.
He's a better pg then 90% of the pg's he's played with. Yes, he is a better pg then Tre Jones.
"refusing any accountability and historically putting all the blame on his teamates."
Give several examples please.
Since there must be soo many.
Poor Cleveland. All he did is bring that hole a Championship and increase the teams and towns revenue but at least a billion.
Poor Miami only 4 straight Finals with 2 wins, albeit one a gift
So if some one on ST has a skill, lets say computers. They work at Google but get a better off from Samsungs new Texas digs. You're saying they are a traitor and bandwaggoner for moving freely in the capitalistic system we live under?
His MO has not changed, the results have. The baggage is clearly not worth it in 2024. This is wemby’s team now. Any move that suggests otherwise is beyond stupid
Sure, maybe he can teach Champaignie how to dunk.
No to LeBron. Players on other teams all suck unless they are 25-year-old superstars in their primes, and the players already on the Spurs are all diamonds in the rough who just need more time to develop.
It never ceases to amaze me how blue collar fans will always take the side of billionaire owners who get taxpayer funding for their arenas and stadiums, but expect players to take less than their value out of some moral obligation.
100%.
It's like these fans are hoping Holt or Jerry Jones is going to cut them a check for saving a little bit on payroll, instead of raising the price of hotdogs by another dollar.
because its not a zero sum game between whether lebron takes more money or [hypothetical owner] keeps money. its about the cap flexibility to build a better team.
i didnt love it when duncan took team friendly deals because it lined holt's pockets, i loved it because it allowed us to build great teams, eventually sign aldridge, etc
It's the responsibility of the owner and GM to build a compe ive team. I have no problem celebrating players who take pay cuts, but that's different than calling them greedy if they don't.
The owners could always renegotiate the CBA and get rid of the salary cap.
Maybe Lebron can get Pop fired for us. Seems to be a trend for him
