We all figure Lebron a most likely landing spot will be Philly LA or stay in Cleveland. Who are your dark horse teams to get Lebron? Philly just sounds like a terrible idea. Simmons is trending towards LeBron and bringing in the real thing will only stunt his growth. The Sixers should just be patient with what they have. Barring injury, they could be a ECF contender very soon. LeBron to the West is another terrible idea for him. His (or any superstar FA's) best chance at a title comes through the East. The East outside of Boston and Philly is already garbage. His best bet is to stay with CLE and try to arrange for talent to come join him. I think he should be talking to mgmt about trading #8 for Anthony Davis. www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=y9a4rn46 Boogie could be a consolation. I think he'd sign in Cleveland because he knows it means another trip to the Finals. The only problem there is that it would force Love to the Blatt-4 and that's not a good use for him. People want to dog on Love, but he played his ass off in the Finals. I'd only trade him if you're getting top-talent back. If they could trade him for a PG and pick up Boogie, that would make more sense. Chris Paul to the Cavs? Think he'd sign? Would adding him be enough? I can't help but feel that LeBron would prefer to play off the ball at times and he can only do that with an All-Star-caliber PG on the floor. They'd have to get Cousins via a sign and trade. Cleveland's cap situation is shot to crap even if LeBron leaves

Honestly, he's probably a better fit for them than Boogie, even though that Cousins/Davis teamup was monstrous.

I think Lebron to the Knicks is a dark horse move. Kristap is still on a rookie deal he would be a solid guy for Lebron to team up with.
The Noah contract is the problem and I’m not sure how they can get someone to take that one.
If Lebron says he is going to the Knicks would Cleveland take hardway jr as a constellation prize?

I think Lebron goes to the Lakers. Think winning takes a backseat with him now, though he'll probably try to get PG13 over or something.

And they change their team colors to turquoise and yellow.

The Hawks are willing to help teams unload bad contracts to open up cap space. However, the level of compensation they will ask for depends on how much money they’re being asked to absorb. That could be significant for teams like the Rockets, Sixers or others who want to create room to make a max offer to LeBron James or Paul George.

The Nets are hoping to trade up into the teens and are willing to take on an unwanted contract to make it happen. They are offering the 29th pick and Spencer Dinwiddie in return.

The Clippers are hoping to package their picks at 12 and 13 in exchange for a higher selection.
