Rockets have no intention of pursing LeBron

Post by Buckets »

LeOptions dwindling...

"I asked a couple people in Houston about it, and there was sort of a look of, 'Why would we break this up right now?'

"Because they know everything they would have to give up. They know how many moves they would have to make. And would they be able to preserve the same level of shooting, the same level of defense?

"And this is people inside the organization. How much would they have to sacrifice of what they built as far as the way they play? Would they’d have to play significantly differently?"

I don't blame them.

That's exactly the right approach.

They will not win a title without him, they at least have a chance with him.

They know they have no shot of getting him with Philly involved so they are looking elsewhere. Glad to see Houston openly concede to us.

If LeBron goes to Philly I can see this playing out like his other situations.

Philly won't have enough outside shooting to compete with a healthy Celtics, Rockets or GSW. LeBron backers will argue Simmons and Embiid aren't providing enough support and he'll look to leave after 2 years.

Rinse, repeat.

LeBron should go to SAS. Coach Popp seems to be very successful in coaching players in the latter part of their careers.

Why go to Pop when you can go to his student and play on a team with significantly more talent.

lebron would sign at most a 2 year deal with any team at this point. no contending team will make changes for him. not after getting bounced by a bunch of rookies

Harden and Bron on the same team would be insanely hilarious watching them fight over who's going to go ISO

I wouldn't mind Lebron to Orlando. That might actually make them a playoff team for once.
