it has to be somewhere in the east. I don't think he would want to leave that guaranteed finals trip every year. there aren't really any good options though. I think he probably stays

The biggest reason I'm craving this move. OKC struggles in the half court offense at times, and a skilled big man like Pau is the solution to the problem.

My guess is Phoenix if they still have cap room left.

It's really hard to find a situation where he goes elsewhere at this point.

Yup.

And that scares the shite out of me. Would he an excellent move for OKC.

It's like y'all are required to have a zombie laker on your team or something

Lebron was pissed at the Riley presser after the Finals. Didnt like how Riley called him out and basically told him not to do to Miami what he basically did you Cleveland


It was a stupid and unnecessary move by Riley, as if he hasn't been gifted every ring he claims ownership to.

I would love to see Riley get stiffed from this and watch what would be left of that fanbase turn on him...and I want LeBron in Dallas

He more then likely won't.

I just think they all overplayed their hand in hopes that young talented players would take less to come play with them.

They didn't.

So they are pretty much back where they started.

At this point, these guys are chasing Championships. Right now the road is just much easier in the East, so I expect him and Melo to stay there.

Well that corpse did just play 91 games last season

Teams overpay for shooting.


True, but overpay for just one solid year? The dude is 34 and the previous few seasons before that he was on Wade Status as far as games played. I guess he started using that Deer Antler Spray

No way he goes for that low on the open market. He will likely end up making 11-12 million on the open market.


As far as that I was commenting on the initial reports of that lowball offer the Pacers gave. Well so far we are still waiting for the build up to Free Agency to begin so I guess I should wait and see what other teams offer.

Also here is a question, why is a team like the Pellies criticized for the Asik trade which is essentially similar to what Washington did last year?

Are people that certain he is going to hightail it after one year? We have his bird rights.

I will sound like a homer, but Houston with Diwght and James seems like a slam dunk. Also there's the hole sign Melo, sign and trade Harden for Lebron thing. I would rather have Harden than Melo personally...

It's a long shot but that seems to be a good fit for all of the possible scenarios.

It would be dumb for him to come west. almost any team he goes to in the east has a guaranteed spot in the finals every year
