Lebron loves Pop. Period.
He is getting older and older, so I don't think this would be an issue.

Lakers have the most cap space while the Cavs have the highest payroll. It's much easier for LeBron and company to go to L.A and construct a new super team.
The Cavs would obviously be in rebuild mode if LeBron let them know that he was leaving and going to L.A and to trade him there so they could get something in return from him. LeBron is scheduled to make more than what would be the max next season so he has incentive to opt in and have the Cavs move him. The Lakers could clear out even more cap space by packaging Ball with Deng and another pick and Cleveland could use young talent if even that means taking on Deng.
Jr., Tristan, Hill and Deng would all come off the books in two seasons and it's not like they are making the playoffs in that time so adding the 3rd overall pick from last year's draft, along with the 8th and 25 pick is a better start than when LeBron left the first time.
Why would LeBron want to play in the shadow of Kobe Bryant? He would have to win 6 NBA championships to better Kobe's run. Not happening. With Spurs he would not be playing in the shadow of Duncan at all since Duncan was a power forward. LeBron with Kawhi would start a new chapter of Spurs basketball. All the Laker fans going to compare everything he does to Kobe if he goes there just wait.
Zero chance they take Deng. None.
Supposed Lebron goes to Lakers with PG and maybe convince CP3? That doesn’t look good on CP3 jumping boats but they could be compe ive but is it enough with unproven coach and inexperienced role players to beat Dubs? Is it enough to beat a healthy Kawhi, LMA and new acquisition? Because I’m sure FO will not stop at Lebron if we don’t get him. Kawhi will demand help as part of resigning, a Cousins? I still think LeBron’s best chance is to team up with Kawhi and Pops in a defensive team, from a pure basketball standpoint. He’ll go to Spurs.
If LBJ comes I guess a lot of ring chaser veterans will want to be part of the team. Red , Wade, Tyreke, Bradley, Chandler are all interesting possibilites.
A few weeks ago, I was at a local Mexican restaurant with a group of friends. I noticed William Shatner at a nearby table and pointed him out to my wife. But when we left, we passed right by him, and I realized it was some other 300 lb. red-faced dude. Looked just like Shatner, though...
People - hes mocking you all
I don’t think a look-alike Bron would be driving a Lambo though. If that guys driving KIA K900, that’s probably not him
So Bron came all along from Cleveland to SA by car? Interesting.I don’t think a look-alike Bron would be driving a Lambo though. If that guys driving KIA K900, that’s probably not him
He needs to clear head after the sweep, I get that, but still..
Okay a rental Rover then
That's some special pleading you have going on there with the Tim/Kobe comment. Lebron would be playing in Tim's shadow, like it or not. It has nothing to do with Tim being a power forward. It has everything to do with every banner hanging above Lebron's head brought to you by Tim Duncan. The "shadow" thing is overblown. Did Kobe play in Magic's shadow? I don't recall that conversation. Kareem had 6 rings, and I also don't recall that comparison. Players get compared to the greats, rarely to former team members.
The problem in LA for Lebron isn't that he'd be in Kobe's shadow, but that he'd be in Kobe's wake. Kobe's fan base and the caustic situation he left there (and probably still insists on being involved with) would be detrimental to building anything. , the management cannot even figure out who they want as leadership and ownership.
SA would be a shoo in if they weren't so small town. Their success created a small bump in interest from other free agents, but nothing substantial. They'll offer pla udes about Pop and RC, but they won't come to play for them.
You need to drink some more of the PATFO Kool-aid.
It's summer. Tim is retired. There's a 90% chance Tim is in the islands. Lebron won't do anything until his family has vacationed. Even Pop had to meet Tim in the islands. GS met KD in the Hamptons.
Would additional rings not make SA a bigger market for basketball? I know Duncan era while resulted to 5 rings was “boring” to a lot of people (personally I didn’t think so), and didn’t get that elusive back-to-back and 3peat. But Bron/Kawhi would be a new era of fastbreaks and dunks. Isn’t that what the media want?
No, because its San Antonio.
Cleveland was not far too off but you see LeBron’s jersey everywhere. I don’t think it’s solely SA, but a combination of Spurs type of basketball (boring), Duncan’s demeanor (boring) and Pops disdain for reporters (did not help), but calculated for Spurs to fly under radar. But LeBron is a different personality who will sell his products, will dunk and awe viewers, and doesn’t need to cover under radar because of dominance. It’s a Global market and not just anymore prices of seats imo
Exactly. Was in Vegas a while back. No wonder they got the Raiders. Pffffft lmao San Antojio is a lllllllllong way from landing another professional sports franchise. Maybe in another 25 years. I'll admit it: San Antonio is ing lame. Just like the bumper stickers say. It's true. But if the lil niggz wants to win, and catch MJ, his best shot now is with Dem Spurs.
L.A got Brooklyn to take back Mozgovs deal with $45 million remaining to get DeAngelo Russell and even threw in a 1st for the privilege. That was less than a year ago.
Cleveland would certainly take on his 2 years, $37 million if it meant getting back a pick or two plus Lonzo in return.
Gilbert was super aggressive last time LeBron left, even taking on Baron Davis' bad deal for an extra pick that turned out to be Kyrie.
Lakers and Cavs could agree to a deal before draft night for LeBron, then make it official after the Laker's make a selection at 25. Doing so would allow the Lakers to also move their 2019 pick in that deal.
Gilbert can wait a year and then stretch and waive Deng and spread the $6.3 million over the next three seasons. It's certainly not untradable, it just might require the Lakers give up two picks and Ball to get it done instead.

I will make you a bet. That if Bron goes to LA and there is a trade that Deng does not end up in CLE.

Cielo Vista, not his physical address. Where’s the neighborhood? that’s Duncan’s, Yep.
That’s it. That’s all I got.
At the Rim. Still in his car. Maybe he knew her. I don’t know.
I Seriously don’t give a fck. He “asked” older woman I have never seen. Like I said before I don’t have sauces and such and did not gawk stop and take pictures for shut ins on this site. He could have dropped by for a look at Tims trophies since you are so sure Tim is gone. I have not a clue. What I know is L. James was in San Antonio on Sunday. You can make up the vacation scenario.
Thanks
