Lebron would meet with Warriors if they had max

"would need to at least trade one of Klay Thompson or Draymond Green and possibly both".

Hmmm wonder how much this is from Le Brons camp to try and shake up the warriors knowing that they would need to make a trade to get him.

If taken as half serious it could divide a locker room.

I dont think so...

The bulls were the superteam if the 90’s. So many Allstars during that time- Jordan, pippen, horace grant, Rodman, bj Armstrong etc.

Don't get too pissed off Smith. This 'revelation' is more about LeBron and his people putting pressure on the Cavs to make a trade or two before the deadline nothing more.

The Warriors won't be in a position to offer LeBron a max contract. They would need Durant to opt out and come back for a further discount and would need to at least trade one of Klay Thompson or Draymond Green and possibly both. It's not happening this about strong arming the Cavs.

The Sixers are also an Embiid back spasm away from being really ordinary for a long time yet. Still a lot of holes in that roster regardless of how good Simmons or Embiid might become.

I don't like the superteams forming either but if they are a business success, that might be enough to sway the league. Blockbuster TV match-ups, etc.

But then, while it was nice when Wade, Bosh and LeBron led their respective teams, we had the reverse happen too with Durant, Westbrook and Harden splitting up, before they coalesced again in each case with PG, Melo, CP, Durant joining GSW.

Hopefully LeBron joins the 76ers. They are looking one piece off getting especially powerful.

Agree MADCUB. Another reason why the NBA is boring, along with the lack of defence played. These supermax teams being formed which seems to be getting worse.

May be great for GSW but how does that do anything for the 29 other teams that cant win the championship with one of the few current contenders now (Cleveland) certain to drop out of contention and join the majority of the league that cant win.

And along with watching 20+ point wins most nights with no defence, wouldnt it get boring even for GS fans who will see their team just coasting in like they are now.

There will be no competition soon.

Also; as much as I hate GSW, I wouldn't mind Lebron going there (if they can retain their headline stars or just about all of them)/or to Houston because then that may be the final straw for the NBA to finally make some changes to stop these superteams forming;

Right now; the NBA doesn't want to admit they have a problem and that there is still a "contest" - which is rubbish.

They may stop the rot if something as big as this happens e.g. hard salary cap, no more luxury tax payments etc.

Lebron will go to Houston I think; the Rockets will try and trade away Anderson if they fail this year; his $20m per year is ridiculous for a 10ppg and 5rpg PF who is very limited defensively.

They could lineup like:

Paul
Harden
Ariza
Lebron
Capela

Gordon 6th man;

They'd have to clear Klay too.

The article was simply LeBron wants to test FA and he'd "take a meeting" with the warriors if they are able to offer maximum

Lebron would be the pf.
