He's also already won two titles.

Get that paper, Danny.

He's also 34 years old and has been pretty meh in the playoffs the last 4 years. The 76ers are sitting at $129M without Green on the books for next season. They're not going to give him a big deal.

Did you miss last season when they were in the play in tournament and lost in the 1st round?

We would've beat the team that got to the Finals (should've been the Clippers though) if LeBron was on a healthy ankle and AD didn't injure his knee and groin, even with horrific shooting which was probably a bottom 5-10% outcome if you simulate that series 100 times.

With Kawhi probably not coming back till late in the season and maybe not being fully himself till midway through the 2022 season. There is a shot to get to the Finals again.

Westbrook did beat the Nets 2 out of 3 games he went up against them last year. They lost the last game of the year with him and Beal to the Nets by 7. Westbrook had 29 points and Beal just 17.

He has made $81M over his career, they're already way over the cap and paying him anything significant would put them over the tax line, and I think they'll want to keep as much cap flexibility as possible while they're shopping Benny.

Get that paper, Danny.

He has 3..... Spurs (2014), Raptors (2019), Lakers (2020)

Who’s standing in their way?

Hypotheticals are hypothetical

I said a healthy Lakers team. I prefaced that. 

Are we going to assume that if that just stood pat that a 37 year old LeBron would be able to stay healthy with another short off-season and an 82 game season? When he has missed significant time in 2/3 years with the Lakers?
