Which one?

Not really sure, but he is so rich that I think there is a strong possibility he'll take a lot less money to play on a team that has a good chance to beat GS. Any stigma from "stacking the deck" is kinda over with because of what Durant did.

I could see him playing another year on the Cavs but I'd just make those two teams the favorites.

All a guess though, not something I have much conviction about.

2 years ago he bought a $21 million house in LA. I think he's going to the Lakers.

Hard to predict with Lebron. But I think Houston is more likely than San Antonio because I can't see Lebron getting yelled at by Pop. Lebron runs every team he is on, he would have to adjust his approach with the Spurs. Chris Paul is his best friend in the league that he hasn't played with yet so that is always a possibility of them linking up. I still like Clippers as a dark horse team he could go to eventually. It will all depend on what will happen in the playoffs. Lebron isn't going to Houston if Houston can already beat Golden St. this year.

Lakers makes sense as a long-game move. As he gets older, Ball/Ingram/Kuzma will mature as players and George will be there as well if LeBron goes there.

But as far as being able to compete in the West with that team next year, it seems like a stretch and at 34 he won't be getting any younger. They would be good but Ingram and Ball still have a lot of developing to do.

Then obviously all the off-court stuff favors LAL.

I think the Lakers would probably also try to get one more additional star player cause like you said..Ball/Kuzma etc. still arent really ready even with LeBron.

Maybe like a John Wall or a Lemarcus Aldridge out of SA.

George is likely the guy who it will be if LeBron goes there. Going to be a FA as well and from LA area. Really good BBall fit too.

He did say in an interview he wants max money after this year. Which at what point does he have enough money were he takes a little less to win...
