The Sixers now have a golden opportunity to recruit LeBron James to form a truly lethal starting lineup:
Tyrese Maxey
VJ Edgecombe
Jaylen Brown
LeBron
Joel Embiid
On paper, it seems like an ideal LeBron destination after that trade.
Brian Windhorst with one of the coldest mic drops while defending LeBrons’ Legacy:
“All the teams he’s played with he’s delivered a ring. All the places he’s played will retire his jersey. So how’s that for a Legacy? What do you want?”
- @WindhorstESPN
🚨 LeBron has instructed his agent, Rich Paul, to gauge league-wide interest and come back with options before making his free agency decision, per @mcten
Bron knew he was leaving and still balled tf out in the playoffs for a team that had no chance with their star players in street clothes. What a fking professional. Man honors the damn contract, can’t deny that.
After eight seasons with the Lakers, including leading the franchise to the 2020 NBA championship, James departs and enters free agency set to join a new team.
Lakers president Rob Pelinka and Rich Paul spoke a short time ago about the four-time champion's plans, sources said. James chose to inform the Lakers well before start of free agency tonight out of courtesy and appreciation for their run together, and to allow LA to conduct its offseason business.
Except LeBron had 12 of these by Year 15.
And he was competing with Duncan/Dirk/Garnett/Durant/Kawhi/Giannis for them while Jordan was beating out Mitch Richmond, Mark Price, and Tim Hardaway in the 90s.
To the new generation of fans: there are some of us who know a whole different LeBron James to the one you know. Some of us know a whole different career to the LeBron one you know. We were blessed.
Jalen Hurts and new #Eagles OC Sean Mannion have “hit it off” and Hurts is as “open as he’s ever been” to playing more under center and more play-action, per @JFowlerESPN.
Jalen Hurts is one of the most under-appreciated winners in the NFL and one of the most disrespected Super Bowl MVPs ever. The Jalen Hurts hit pieces are getting out of hand and ridiculous.
"It sells papers a lot easier -- and clippings and podcasts -- if you say, 'LeBron, the team is better off without him.' A lot of people will try to like view it. So, I get it. ... They're absolutely wrong." - LeBron after 49 pts on 21-for-26 FGs and going 2-0 in last 24 hours
LeBron James finished with 30 PTS on 13-of-14 FG (93%).
At 41 years old, LeBron becomes the oldest player in NBA history to score at least 30 points on 90% shooting by almost 5 years.
