Nope, Rondo is better than Williams and I want Truth to retire a Celtic. I also love Powe and LBJ isn't leaving Cleveland so there's no way this even has a chance.

Your CRAZY, you dont hold on to players because you like them. Look what happend in the late 80's we hung on to Bird, McHale and the Cheif to long and **** ourselves.

uhh, no. reggie lewis and len bias died. in case you forgot, which it seems you did.

paul pierce will be great still, lbj will be better, rondo is already better than mo williams...AND you wanna give up powe and picks? LBJ doesnt want to go from making one mediocre team decent to another equivalent situation.

mo williams sucks btw, he will never avg 17 and 6 again

So you want to trade. Pierce. Rondo. Powe. And Picks. For one year of LBJ. He isn't going to re-sign...

LBJ doesn't want to come to boston.

It is new york for him. Jay-z, bronx, all that crap.

I think LeBron would go to Greece before Beantown.

^ Really? Don't you think we would make sure LBJ was on board and wanted to stay here before we traded for him? I think any hypothetical goes with out saying that the main player in question wants to come here, and why wouldn't LBJ? KG and RA would still be here, we'd probably still be the best team in the league with LBJ KG and RA. Boston is close to NY so James could still hang out with all his rapper friends. LBJ is so much bigger than JayZ, JayZ can go where ever LBJ goes if he wants to be together so bad.

Almost any trade that gets you LBJ you do. He is simply THAT good.

Lol so your saying, think hypothetically that LeBron wants to come here. Then that is a easy answer. Of course you do it.

What your asking is would you want the best player in the game on this team for a good player, a good old player, and a role player.

no, you dont do any trade for him. you wouldnt trade KG and PP for him. that is a trade. remember when many didnt want to give up al jefferson for KG? the point is, if you trade so much for one guy, that you have nothing left to put around him it is a waste.

LBJ is showing me less seperation from the other greats than i thought was there. he is not as much better than kobe as i thought

and no, LBJ is not bigger than Jay Z. that is actually a moronic statement. i hope im not being offensive, but it sounds like you know Shawn Carter's name, but nothing else. LeBron, as great a basketball player as he is, is just a basketball player. Jay is not merely a rapper.
