Everyone seems to think that if Wade doesn't go to Cleveland then LeBron is on his way out, which is a good theory cause Wade is one of LeBrons best friends, people should for sure keep a eye on the Wade situation.

I don't see any reason to think that LeBron's future in CLE stands or falls on whether or not Wade comes.

I think what he's saying is that if Wade doesn't go to CLE then he probably knows lebron isn't staying.

Ah, okay. That makes a lot more sense

My bad for misunderstanding you, 2.0!

That may happen anyway, depending on how the Rockets gel and if the Spurs age catches up to them. It's essentially Kawhi carrying a lineup that all the vets who are the 2nd 3rd and 4th best players on their team are all way past their prime.

Wade won't help them get to WCF

Let's just hope they don't get someone before the trade deadline who can help them get there!

Lebron works out with DWade

Quote:
LeBron James and Dwyane Wade appear to believe that working out is a bit more enjoyable when you're with a friend.

With a little over a month until the NBA season begins, the former Miami Heat teammates linked up in Los Angeles to put in some work.

James posted a video of him and Wade running through drills on his Instagram page.


Probably nothing but....

For those who don't want LBJ but WB (and PG13 is the constant in both equations), that still likely means Ingram has to come off the bench. You'd have:

WB
Lonzo
PG13
[PF]
[C]

Only iteration (in a 2 max scenario) is signing Boogie, but I'm not sure he's a fit culture-wise given Magic's big push on that end.

If my calculations are correct there's about 35% of you out there.

Westbrook signing the Jordan deal could mean he could come here next year, think about does Jordan brand want the face of its product playing on OKC or LA

I think the 2nd likeliest iteration of the 2 max plan involves WB.

1. LBJ/PG13
2. LBJ/WB
3. WB/PG13

I would say are the 3 top configurations that the Lakers might be looking at.

Although the story of 3 LA kids bringing the Lakers back in WB/PG13/Lonzo would be quite awesome. Bring in Brook (born in LA) and we have an all LA revival.

I know...but the broad diaspora known as "LA."

Palmdale isn't either.

But these are the nice marketing points to add.

Hell, Melo grew up mostly in Baltimore yet the Knicks milked the hell out of his short stint growing up in NY.

Imagine rolling out WB/Lonzo/PG13/Brook and the strong LA connections. It would be pretty sweet.
