2025 Offseason Thread Vol.5

Y’all don’t have even the remotest chance of getting Bron.

Keep your focus on more realistic targets like Komepinga.

Xoxo.

How are you and bammy still posting? I thought the mods finally banned y’all after my incessant post reporting.

You can’t stop 3ammy, you can only hope to contain him. I’m inevitable.

Would be great if this week we could see Kaspar find his groove and show flashes of his potential. Wiggins and Rozier traded for LeBron and Bronny. Dame signed. And one more move to fill the backup C position.

Is that too much to ask?

[greg4012]

Niko is your line?

Lebron would directly affect his playing time and would short circuit any hope for meaningful development for Niko this year.

He can go if push came to shove

Not true at all. Niko would be fantastic with Lebron. Jovic is the PF off the bench in a 3 headed rotation with Ware and Bam. Jovic and Lebron can interchange with Lebron mostly playing the SF spot but also able to slide to PF in small ball lineups.

C Ware
PF/C Bam PF Jovic
SF/PF James

That’s the 5 man rotation with plenty of minutes for all.

In a lineup featuring Lebron, Jovic is completely redundant. Lebron would obviously be on-ball and any hope of Jovic developing into more of an on-ball playmaker would be cooked.

Between Bron, the guards, and Bam, Jovic would get relegated to spot up duties, per usual (not really developing)

Knowing Spo, Highsmith would be prioritized.

No need to complicate it for the sake of finding a way to.

LeBron is 41. Load manage him at around 33 mpg in regular season.

Niko can play 15 mpg without LeBron if that is really a concern (it's not) and ~10 mpg with LeBron. I think that will work plenty well for the player who has never created more than 25% of his own made field goals over his 3 year career and puts up over 6 3PA per 36 minutes.

Don't see why Jovic wouldn't function as a valued utility forward on a team with LeBron that also has Bam splitting 50-50 minutes between PF and C and Ware taking Center minutes.

Your concerns have been forwarded to Trache Khan, RealGM’s customer service rep. Trache Khan takes all reports very seriously. I’m sure he will be in touch soon.

The objective of the team fundamentally changes if Lebron is brought on board.

If the goal is to play a "utility forward" on a team that includes Lebron, the more likely option to be getting minutes is Highsmith as a 3nD, not a young player whose development hinges on the opportunity to play with the ball in his hands.

LeBron fits perfectly because he allows you to play Herro and Powell together and let LeBron be the primary ball handler/distributer

That lineup with LeBron playing QB is lethal, you got two guys who shoot the leather off the ball on the perimeter, and two Lob threats. Not to mention who the heck guards LeBron? It would force some teams into some really difficult decisions with two bigs and having to also deal with LeBron in the paint and on drives.

Can’t ball pressure on Herro or Powell because you have to help on drives and post mismatches, Tyler Herro might average 30 a night on WIDE OPEN 3s

That team healthy walks to the finals in this Eastern Conference

I want the LeBron parade again that “not 1….maybe 2” would hit so hard on Biscane

Wiggins Rozier JJJ and a 1st for Bronny and LeBron

I’ve always felt like LeBron could play into his mid 40s as a PG and a distributor first he’s that skilled of a passer/decision maker. This is a situation where he could embrace his final form. It also puts every guy we have on this roster into a solidified role. Davion Mitchell for example is a monster if he doesn’t have to carry the PG duties and can just go wild on defense.

Read on Twitter

[HeatIn5]

Mitchell/Kaspar/Dru
Herro/Knecht
Powell/Rui/Jaime
Bam/Jovic
Vuc/Ware

**** it

Yea i dont see kaspar in the active roster.. he is sioux falls bound.. already looking for a place to stay there most likely..if theres an injury he may get called up… but so far he has shown zero skills… like gordon ramsay would say, its not raw, its **** blue..

Bump

[CWebb2491]

Has any reported if the Heat are interested in trading for LeBron?

I’m interested to see if he’d be open to returning.

East is wide open…..

I’d do Wiggins, Rozier (expiring), JJJ (played for UCLA, Big Mexican fanbase) and a 1st rounder.

That’s fair for a 41 year old LeBron with a no trade clause who feels sort of betrayed by LA.

Ware
Bam Niko KJ
LeBron Fontechio
Powell Highsmith Larson
Herro Mitchell Kasparas Dru

Pick up Dame and a back up big and you got a contender.

[Tim_Hardawayy]

As **** as it is, I think any team that trades for LeBron won't have to give up anything because he'll use his influence with Klutch to threaten the Lakers to just send him to his preferred destination. I'm not a fan of that, at all, but would be nice if it benefits us for a change.

We aren't the best team LeBron can just pop onto, there's others with more talent, but we have a coach we know he likes and gets along with (big for him with how much control he likes to have), and there is a narrative there, and LeBron is fond of narratives.

[MiamiLoyal926]

He has a NTC, so technically has lots of say in where he goes, and thus will restrict what teams have to give. This will be more likely the Wade trade back to Miami than the Dame or KD trade frankly.

[3ammy3uck3ts]

We have the perfect supporting cast for him to slide right in and lead.

[Wiltside]

Would be a sweet swan song for both Riley and James. I kinda hope it happens. Real key under the mat feel good NBA telenovela subplot lol

Was just thinking this too. Would be a nice reconciliation after the way it ended, and one last dance for 2 old guys who want to compete at the highest level.

Bronny would benefit from our program as well frankly… so he would be setting up his son as well.

Spo would make Bronny into prime Gabe Vincent on steroids

Yall catch during Spos interview when they said “you all have open roster spots right” and then Spo started stuttering then eventually said “potentially yea” lol. LeBron en route

I saw that too and it made me curious. Though who is our backup center, who is our backup point guard? It could be just Spo not tipping his hat to a year of Rozier in the sin bin.

Is that too much to ask?

lebron for wig and roz? Are you a joking man?

It would take a lot more than that to get the bron here... Even if he is on his nba death bed
