I’d like to see Michael Jordan try do THAT! 

Make it happen. I want the entire roster either minimum salary or 36 years+.

Unc avengers would be kinda fire

if only there was some kind of…. High Speed Rail… to help LBJ commute to the Bay Area quickly and efficiently from LA 🤔

Olden State Warriors

LeCommute

Of course their interested in adding him to their existing core. 

It’s just you may have to take a teeny tiny pay cut LeBron.  

That commute thing is the dumbest idea yet. LA to SF is like 400 miles.

That’s like the distance from Cleveland to Chicago. Or Boston to Philly. Or a host of other similar situations.

The idea of “commuting” that during an NBA season is patently absurd even with private travel

LeSuperCommuter

Golden State will become kind of a meme team imho. There is no particular basketball reason to do this move. Imho the Warriors should prioritise retaining KP.

Anyway a team with Steph&Lebron would get them on National TV for like 90% of the games, that could get to 100% in case this is the retirement tour of Lebron too.

But I really don’t get how this team pretend to compete, considering what we are seeing the past 2 rounds (OKC-SAS and NYK-Cavs). No way such an old team could keep up with these young teams.

LeJourneyman

He could take a helicopter to home games.

No shit they’re interested.

They want Lebron to sign for minimum lmao

I honestly think this is probably the best outcome for everyone. The Lakers will tend to other business first. The other teams that can offer Lebron a lot of money (Nets and Bulls) aren’t probably places he’d want to go. I doubt Lebron wants the optics of sitting around, waiting by the phone for the Lakers to finish their other business and sign him with leftover money under the tax…….especially because there might not be any leftover money.

And Lebron has pride. I don’t think he wants to be seen as lowest priority anyway.

Lebron’s timeline doesn’t fit most teams. Its 1-2 years? Not many teams even have the full mid-level to offer him. I think the Spurs could, but I doubt Lebron really wants to joint the Spurs and the more I see of Wemby, he might honestly get pissed off if a reporter was asking him after most games, “What is it like to have a mentor like Lebron in the locker room?” and I doubt that organization would want LeRetirement Tour circus either.

Warriors are a fit. I mean, the smart thing for the Warriors is probably to rebuild and start trading these vets for assets or dumping them if possible, but that organization seems committed to putting the best team out there for Steph until Steph retires…….and so they should: Steph is a one-team player. That’s why the Lakers aren’t going to turn themselves inside out for Lebron: He’s a rental car. And it was a great rental car!!!! But all you need to do is put gas in it when you drop it off……you don’t need to wash and wax it because it’s not your car. The Warriors are going to give Steph the full treatment.

Plus, Team Old Guys would be fun. They’d be like the Harlem Globetrotters. And their biggest star is clearly okay with Lebron being on the team……since Steph has reportedly been recruiting Lebron (as compared to Luka who hasn’t said anything about Lebron staying…….which sorta tells me Luka would rather the circus leave LA). Steve Kerr can manage it all. Neither Draymond or Butler will might the hubub. They have an owner who can afford some luxury taxes.

2K17 dream team

Just move bro… no 🚁 please

Build da high speed train

Lebron, Curry, and Butler on the same team would be absolute cinema 🍿🏀

Lebron pretending to have other options, or he just really hates Pelinka (fair enough)

As a basketball fan I selfishly want a full season and possibly playoffs of LeBron and Steph on the same team. The Olympics showed how fun it would be, even if they’re both older.

I dont care if it fails i want this to happen 😂

NOT BY HELICOPTER

Nah

My Pitch: uhh it’s called Silicon Valley for a reason, Mr James, sign over your likeness to the Warriors and you’ll get to sit at home in LA while we project an NFT hologram with your likeness onto the court. Adam Silver already signed off on the whole deal! This really is the vanguard of basketball entertainment.

If Curry and LeBron are healthy in any capacity I believe in the fit.

This would be SO fucking fun.

No chance lmao

Its doable. Only a 45 minute flight roughly.

Unc squad electric boogaloo

ooo, maybe dont commute by helicopter champ.

San Diego is a lot closer but when the Chargers moved to LA, Philip Rivers stayed in SD and just bought a sprinter van and put a film setup in the back and had someone drive him back and forth everyday while he reviewed film in the back. Pretty sure Kawhi still lives in SD when playing with the clippers too.

Did they tell feed Lebron the same lie about the bullet train they’ve been telling Californians?

I’d watch

LeSplash Brother incoming

Serious question, if Lebron bolts - does Bronny just get released/bought out?

You better bring Bronny, lol.

Yeah…just use a helicopter…

The documentary and farewell tour will feed families!

Only mavs can facilitate depth if gsw dont want to wait for jimmy

Or to trade down a bit

This should be considered as elder abuse

So let’s say Warriors game ends at 930 and they have an off day.

Game ends at 930om. Wrap up shower/media at 10pm. Get to airport at 1030, leave at 11, land at midnight, back home and in asleep by 1230-1am

Then either reverse that 8 hours later for practice or 18 hours later if it’s an off day

That is a total non starter

LeDurant

LeCommute

They should bring back Klay.

I don’t mind it just a single year deal to expire at the same time as Jimmy and Draymond, but they are already at 180M with 9 players (unless Dray declines his PO, or the team signs him to a longer/cheaper deal - neither of which make sense to me), which becomes 187M with their FRP- so unless Lebron accepts the MLE (which may become the even smaller tax payer MLE), what assets can they send to LA in a S&T?

Man this would be a lot of fun

Get KD there as well. Team unc.

LeBron doesn’t strike me as a Bay Area man. I doubt this actually happens

Just get a crash pad with three other Uncs

ReMote James

LeIdèa

YES COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN

The unc squad

I wanna see one last dance with Steph and LeBron teamed up. If it works out great if not oh well would be a great memory

This is a stupid idea right?

Like LeBron joining GSW, as they are currently rostered.

Its not gonna end well, they have no salary cap to actually add all this money (no way owner is ok with 2nd apron taxes, and LeBron won’t sign less than 3 yrs anyways) and this team still has no viable front court unless AD decides to join too (other issues).

Am I missing something? Why is this story having any MEANINGFUL traction, other than its fun to think about for like 1 min.

• Steph Curry is still on the Warriors
• LeBron is being pitched the idea of joining the Warriors
• Giannis could possibly be going to a different team this coming offseason
• screw it throw Durant in there for a big reunion

it may not be realistic but at least all the GSW jersey edits would finally pay off

Would LeBron actually want to leave? I feel like people are forgetting he has Luka on his team. I know everyone thinks they would’ve got clapped even if he was healthy but he’s still a top ³⁄₄ player in the league

He could just use a helicopter to get to the games! Really avoid that traffic

i think were forgetting someone for the unc core

They really invented a teleport device just to lure Bron to the Warriors

Kg and paul pierce era Nets kind of situation

/r/leoveremployed

No way this would actually be a smart move for them as far as actually getting the chip, but damn would it be fun to see. Not a Golden State fan, but I’d definitely be rooting for unc squad.

Come on, just let the old guy work from home.

Le oldest road

LElast Dance

Add kd and let’s fucking go.

Spurs average age 24

2027 Warriors average age 38

A basketball museum haha

“Total Payroll: The projected payroll is approximately \(182–\)204 million, placing them well over the projected $165 million salary cap.”

Lakers tried this. Mega old team with lebron on it. We had talent, but they gassed out every game lol

The 2018 all stars team

Wonder what jersey number Green takes to facilitate LBJ’s 23.

LeGoogleBus

That’s gotta be the oldest playoff squad ever, right?

Man I hope this happens

I want to see this happen. Curry and LBJ are on the verge of retiring. This could be their last legitimate push before then. It would also make for some beautiful basketball.

Don’t stop there. Get KD back too.

LeGoldenYears

LeOldestRoad

all 4 old guys

I’m telling you all right now.

LeBrons too legacy centered to join golden state even if he wanted to deep down.

He’s not joining the warriors lol

That circus would be fun to root against. Watching SGA flop his way to sweeping that tram in the playoffs would be pure comedy.

$1000 nosebleed seats for a 40-42 season.

Retirement home lol draymond green in 2027

Draymond doesn’t belong in the league anymore. Tired of him getting to hitch a ride his entire career.

If Butler can come back this year then I can see Lebron going to GsW.

But if Butler isn’t coming back until after the All Star Weekend of 2027, then Lebron is better off staying with the Lakers.

GsW still have Moody who is out with his own injury and need to address their Center position issue. Are they bringing back KP on a longer cheaper deal? Or are they letting him go?

This is all just so LeBron can son his own son 4 times a season.

I hope nobody mentioned that in the meeting because it’s so fucking obvious

Best case - it’s the NBA version of the expendables.

Worst case - they play like 5 games healthy together.
