LBJ thanks for the great memories. Since 1970 your by far the best Cavs player I have ever seen and will likely be for ever the best. Thank you so much for a championship

That being said; Jordan, Tim Duncan, and Steph Curry have one advantage in my mind as better players then you sir.

Why. Because those players have rings that were not gotten by moving from one team to another with a better situation to play in

No disrespect at all. Thank you again. Best wishes to you and your family.


Btw please enjoy the:

- 13% California non deductible income taxes
- enjoy dealing with Lavar ‘s father. You know that guy who said your kids will end up being nothing
- and enjoy the worst traffic I have ever sign in my life

Enjoy.

Look, my disgruntled opinion about him leaving us in shambles aside...
James is the GOAT and to prove that without question among other reasons like family needs and post nba lifestyle, he joined a lottery team in the West,granted they have cap space to bring in good players but he is going to a team with no good vets on it at all.
Sure their young core is promising, esp Kuzma but I personally think Ball and Ingram have under performed so far.
If he wins a title in the West this year without a Kawhi,PG etc no one can argue he isn't the GOAT so that is also incentive I can understand for going there. He is not chasing rings either or he would have opted in to be traded to Houston or could have gone to Philly for a cake walk through the East. Instead he took a path with no major upgrade from a team mate perspective than what he left, but with cap to create a better team. I do think that Randle if retained can create for himself and should be a must if they fail to get any marquee fa like Capella or Boogie.
Either way the Lakers path to a better roster is easier than CLE so I get that as well, but in retrospect I think the knocks on him being in the East are the driving force to why he chose a lottery team in the West.

1. Going to LA was a business decision. I doubt he'll lose money by going there, more likely double it.
2. Probable chance of Lonzo being traded since Rondo just signed out of the blue, so that's Lavar gone.
3. Kobe took the chopper, Arnold takes the chopper so theres few doubt in my mind LeBron won't have a chopper to go to work aswell.

I'm deleting any trolling posts about jersey burning. Do that in your own forums, not here.
