Bronny James suffers cardiac arrest. Stable condition.

[MultiTroll]

:lol can you imagine that scenario? Lebron comes over to the spurs and wins a chip with Wemby for his son as a swan song to his career. Major mixed feelings from some Spurs fans.
100 fine with a Lebron Spurs ring.

No mixed feelings. Ring is king.
Any of the Smelly 3 off the Warriors i say i would not want.

However if any one of them was a difference maker in a Chip would be near impossible to turn down.

A Durbetta bandwaggon would be queasy also.

Bottom line i think of those 4, Curry is the only one that would make a difference. Why no one has knocked him on his ass for his *put to sleep* preening is beyond me.

[exstatic]

It is not Lebron's fault we choked away a championship. He's always been super respectful of the Spurs and what he's doing at age 40 is incredible.

Numbers wise,yes, but he’s at the point in his career where he really doesn’t affect wins and losses anymore, even in the regular season.

Go back and check Lebron shooting percentages. And I said for the veterans minimum.

[exstatic]

Has anyone noticed that the Lakers are the #9 seed in the west, and may well wind up in the lottery? That game with GS won’t be a cakewalk.

LeBron no longer has a big effect on wins and losses,just puts up stats. Don’t make the mistake of thinking he’s going to take vet min from a team with cap room,either.

I don’t care about stats. Lakers are barely a play in team. He no longer affects winning.

9th seed but 44 wins, they would easily be in the playoffs in the East.

Meanwhile ex wants to keep players that have led us to a measly 19 wins, most of those because of the all time great they might have on their hands. Ex wasn’t this stupid 10 years ago, he must have dementia.

I haven’t said anything about what I want, just that I’m not hot and bothered by a 40YO on his last legs.

Here’s what I want: 35+ need not apply

A PF/C that rebounds at a high rate, and shoots the 3 ball.
A true 3&D wing
A vet PG caretaker for 3 years who can play defense, distribute, and shoot enough to space without a USG% over 25. Scoring over 20ppg not required or desired.

Bron is amazing, and it takes a special level of bitter old white man to hate on the dude.

Problem with drafting Bronny though, is that still won’t mean he’ll sign here, whether for the minimum or a max deal. They’ve already intimated at this pretty directly - Bron will only go wherever Bronny gets drafting, assuming he gets drafted by a place Bron is willing to go. San Antonio probably has more of a shot than somewhere like Charlotte or DC or Portland because of the Pop and the respect Bron has for him, but still probably not likely.

[SPURt]

It’d be funny if the Spurs use their second round pick they got from the Lakers on Bronny. If Bronny wants to play with his father or visa-versa going back to college for a year makes no sense. Either of the two could pick up an injury that would derail that dream, Bronny likely already has with the heart stuff. The most likely scenario is Bronny stays in the draft, does not get drafted, because he sucks, and gets legacy signed by the Lakers.

Honestly, he probably wouldn't even retire if that happened. No reason to not try and match Jordan with a repeat at that point.

Another Lebron ring and he has five. I’d have major mixed feelings about that. That’s something that Timmy has and these other superstars don’t.

[Tyronn Lue]

Lakers are 8th seed and 9-1 in their last 10. Lebron's shot like 60% from 2 in the last 10 games and over 50% from 3. He's averaged 25 or so points. Saying he doesn't affect wins is one of the stupidest things I've ever read on here.

[Tyronn Lue]

The point being, THEYRE NOT A TOP 5 TEAM WITH HIM, ANYMORE. He doesn’t affect winning the way he did even 3-4 years ago. I don’t give a fuck what his individual stats are, the Lakers are a play in team with him putting up those stats.

I’m a fan of both, obviously.

It doesn’t matter, Lebron would never come to San Antonio and the trade offs, handing the front office over to LeGM and Klutch, are not worth it.

That’s actually the reason he’d never come here. The Spurs would never had the keys to him and let him drive the franchise into the ground by signing and trading for all of his old friends, emphasis on old.

A wet dream here and there is nice but agreed; unless Pop and LBJ have some illuminati type meeting behind closed doors and bring in another top tier player like PG13 with everyone on board with our culture this would never happen.

Also, players praise Coach Pop openly but few actually would want to truthfully
play for him once they have made it depending kn where their priorities are.

If you don't think Lebron is 10Xs better then anyone on the Spurs beyond Wemby, then get into crack rehab.

I don't see him married to the Lakers at all, but I also think he made that statement thinking there would be good faith reasons for a team to draft Bronny other than let's get his dad cheap for a year. And that's clearly not the case now.

Lebron is an UFA. It would cost nothing to acquire him as far as draft picks.

Now as to which of his buddies he wants to bring, I'd sure as hell be open to listening. Knowing that is negotiable.

Do you think the Spurs defense would improve with Lebron out there vs Tre Jones?
Lebron is not a pg you say?
Ok, better D then Cedi Osman?

[ginobilized]

Lebron at PG/PF would give him a chance to increase his assists and rebounds. He's already got the points.
He'd go crazy playing with these kindergarteners.

I'd love to see it. Very unlikely, but, he'd definitely be an upgrade over JC or Tre.

The spurs need to focus on building around wemby. Lebron wants his team to focus on Lebron. These two priorities are not compatible. It’s that simple.

There’s a whole universe of options besides (1) Lebron and (2) running it back with the same crew.

Beside the whole idea is to get top 10 player Lebron with Wemby.

Without the mindset or talent

My point is that he was expected to be at least 6'4, which is very different from 6'1 for a player envisioned for his defense and versatility.

At 6'1 you better be a sniper or have one skill above average to survive in NBA

(I know what your whole idea is but I'm sure even you know it's not realistic for plenty of reasons, I'm just playing the game ;)

You mean like Tre Jones or Malakie level sniping?

Lebron is very realistic. Adding an all around team player greatly helps Wemby. But i don't know how badly or not he wants to play with his son now.
But ya, a cock block is the far more likely outcome. :pop:

[manufan10]

I think the issue is now LeBron is trying to distance himself from the "teaming up with Bronny" narrative. Woj and Windhorst have both reported on it recently.

Come on brother, u can do better than that :lol

You've read me often enough shitting on the whole roster all season long!

Look from our/Spurs pov, let's agree to disagree

But on Lebron's side, it's unrealitistic if you only consider the financial aspect.

Not only he has 50M waiting but with a player option that allows hm to negociate with a Lakers team that CAN'T AFFORD to lose him (Lebron has all the leverage) at his age the smart move is to negociate at least 2seasons at the same salary. That's 100M

He's shown his whole life being driven by money (ie Hong-Kong protests) wants to buy a Franchise and you think he will just leave 100M on the table?

Then you have the "Pop factor"... Everybody love Pop as long as they don't have to play fo him = prioritising team's interest, sacrificing personnal stats AND being a lieutenent to Wemby who will and has to be the center of the team especially with the playmaking abilities he's shown.

Now put aside your fan bias and tell me how it can be realistic to you?

Where is this parallel universe and planet you are on?

Did i not read many legitimate aggrivated posts from you when the Spurs players selfishly hogged the ball and purposely did not pass it to Wemby?
Popped sat on his ass and continued to run Sochan at the point.

He has ZERO interest in winning or team ball. It's all about himself and his virtue signalling at this point.

Biggest change imo was when Bronny had his heart condition. Prior to that i think Lebron really did want to run it with Bronny and would have taken minimal.
Now, I'm sure LeBron doesn't want to sissify his boy and give the appearance (and truth) that the only reason an NBA team took his son was to have Dad on the team.

So ya, moving fwd i think Lebron goes ahead and pulls the biggest check possible, agree.

However there are a crap ton of teams he could boost into Champ contender.

If Brian Wrong was puppeteered by Pop to get Lebron, Siakim, and Donovan Mitchell i think the Spurs could make a run. But if one or even two of them got majory hurt it could F the Spurs plans for years.

Just don't see any great immediate solution for the Spurs. Where is a GNob or Parker in the draft when you need them again? :rollin
And i know you're not on that silly Dilly from North Carolina train.

Had Bronny showed real potential, it might have been another story, bc the son would have been the new golden goose.

Lebron has a business mindset 1st in all of his decisisons, basketball has always been 1B or 2

As for PATFO, I'm part of the doubters but I'll wait and see before judging, I think they have a healthy pressure to work on like they had around 2001-2002.

They can surprise us

I agree most all don't want to play for him for the exact opposite reasons you mentioned.
Pop has zero interest in winning, instead is and has been for the past 4 years all about virtue signaling with his super forced hob nobbing after games etc / power tripping.
Players talk and I'm sure his strategy is the butt of many jokes.
Sochan at pg for 40 games. Please.
Sacrificing stats? Going all the way back to one of his pets, Michael Finey. He could chuck anytime, anywhere and play super soft D. All good with Pop.

Other way around imo. Lebron is not going to tolerate some insane super ineffective ball hogging by scrubs when he knows Wemby is who the O should revolve around.
Lebron gonna steal shots from Wemby? No way, i don't see it. Especially since the scoring title is in the bag.
