Everyone saw this coming, except Koby Altman and Dan Gilbert apparently.

No it isn't. Ingram, Kuzma, and Ball are still raw and unproven (Ball could just plain suck).
Forget about Ball. Ingram & Kuzma are already better than the entire Cav's roster.
Like go look at the Cav's roster right now, who exactly is so good over there that Lebron is going to miss?
JR shot 34% in the postseason. Kevin Love 39%. Both are bad defenders too.
Ingram with his -1.59 RPM and 54% TS or Kuzma and his -1.53 RPM and 55% TS?
These are raw prospects that haven't proven anything.

I doubt they'll still be the best team in the league in 4 years. Possible but a lot of things can happen in that span.
Lebron won't be the best player in the league in 4 years either. He's turning 34 this year.
Lebron has two years MAX of Supernova mode left in him. He won't drop off badly but he won't be the runaway best player in the league anymore. Prob still top 10 but that's about it.

It’s not age. Lebron has been in league longer- if he’d taken max every year his max would be higher.
The issue is he didn’t take the max every year. He took less in Miami and when you add the % more he can get after each year it adds up to this.
You sure I thought there was a cut off for these supermax deals and Chris Paul basically used his leverage as President of the players association to extend the age limit. I could be wrong not well versed in the CBA.
the team he played for gets to offer the most money to their free agents
if every team had the same offer including the original team, crap teams would never have any leverage in keeping their own players
Right, so it means players have to leave a large sum of guaranteed money on the table to leave. Makes it tempting to stay in one place.

Okay well JR & love have proven that they suck, so... you still haven't named who on the Cav's is much better.
Also those numbers will go up significantly next to Lebron.

well now he gets to do it 4 times + playoffs (if they meet)
Without any real expectations (not like there were much with the Cavs but still..) and not on the biggest stage (Finals)
Maybe he thought that if he was gonna lose to the Warriors anyway (or some other team now that he's in the West), might as well do so in sunny LA.
Welll according to most fans not making the playoffs is better than losing in the finals so it's all good then imo
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.
