And in the only story that really matters tonight, the Lakers are rising...
I don't understand how the Sixers can be that low.
Unless Lebron is more interested in playing in Hollywood or with his friends or he wants to finish in Cleveland, is there any doubt that Philly is by a mile the best situation for him? [Reply]

Also, it's not like the series would have been any different anyway and everyone knows it.
I see he is saying this as well which is even worse. No one is going to buy he broke his shooting and dribbling hand and kept playing while showing no effects from it [Reply]

Simmons is an bad fit with him. I try to imagine how that would work and I can't do it. He'd need to learn to shoot at least a bit. [Reply]

Why wouldn't you buy it? Just means he would have had to play through some pain. Athletes do that all the time.
I remember Erik Karlsson played through a broken foot all the way to the East Finals last year in hockey and didn't show much of anything. It happens. [Reply]

I’ve been wondering this too but trying it along the way could, I guess, be more possible in the east. [Reply]
Thank you @KingJames for another incredible season. 15 years ago you came into the NBA with what seemed like insurmountable hype and yet somehow you've surpassed it. It truly is an honor to watch you play every night, you are the best ever. pic.twitter.com/qA7fEmFANC

Maybe but basically no cap space. Would take a fair amount of cap work to happen but theoretically possible. Complicating it further is CP3 and Lebron seem among the least likely to take less money than they deserve. [Reply]
