I thought part of his interest in the Lakers was because of linking up with George and Paul who both are now locked up elsewhere. Knowing how excited JFH gets over marginal talent I am a bit concerned for his health at the moment. He must be erupting over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m glad he is out of the east though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see how it makes any sense for him on a personal level. If he brought along CP3 or Paul George then he could seemingly compete. I hate Kevin Love but there is a legitimate chance that none of those Laker kids ever play as well as him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Brown Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) 3 hours ago, B-Man said: That's true, but Jordan always had the luxury of having Scottie Pippen though minus his first couple of seasons. Why would he leave? Pippen was easily a top 10 player and arguably top 5 players of the 90's. Lebron never had anybody close to Pippen's talent in Cleveland and likely wasn't going to get it. Even the year Jordan played baseball the Bulls were one game away from the Eastern Conference Finals. The Cavs highest winning percentage the four years Lebron was in Miami was .402. Also, MJ never faced a team as good as the Golden State Warriors in the finals. Lebron knows his legacy is all about the rings and would be foolish to not improve his odds of beating the Warriors next year.

He probably won’t play until December or later but it doesn’t matter for a team like that. No other team was willing to pay him more than 5.3 mill, but no other team is that loaded where if he’s even 1/2 the player he was, for 1/2 the season, it’s all they need and still an upgrade to javale mcgee.

Modern medicine has really helped with this type of injury. Since he's still in his 20's, he might be able to bounce back and not miss a step. He may be less of a perimeter player though.
