Embiid shudda probably kept his mouth shut rather than rip on LeBron (LA is Kobe/Magic's town) yesterday. Things change quick.

Lebron putting pressure on the Lakers to go all in on Kawhi

It would be smart for Bron to stay in the East. West keeps getting more and more stacked.

Lmao Lebron saw that Paul George resigns with the thunder so now Philly is back in the mix. It’s obvious what Lebron is doing, he wants to play on whoever gets Kawhi between LA and Philly. If neither get him then he will have a really hard decision to make since Philly is way ahead of Lakers in being contenders right now. Lebron wants to play on the team that is most stacked in the end between the two franchises.

Nah, he's letting James know that he ain't running **** if he chooses Philly. He'll be a member of the team, and they'd love to have him, but he needs them just as much as they need him. It was a good message and marker to put down.

We were told it was. Hell a day earlier (before FA) Woj dismissed philly as a lateral move. Magic inability to get anyone seems to have Lebron rethinking things and evaluating his options.

We both know he ain't coming if that is indeed the case. You might like it, but LeBron won't.

If it seems like Lebron + Kawhi might go to the Sixers, it would be in the Celtics best interest to sacrifice Jaylen Brown + Sac Pick + fillers to get Kawhi before the Sixers get him first. I realize that the Celtics do not want to lose out on Brown but they really really don't want the Sixers getting Lebron + Kawhi.

Lol if Lebron goes back to the Cavs and the Lakers and Sixers get nothing that would be a perfect offseason

Or Lebron going to the Lakers but them getting no one else. That would be great too
