If LBJ leaves next year, we will have a boatload of money and it would be great for Cavs if they want him with that team. Might take a pay cut (usually what billionaires do, lol). Our problem might be who on that Laker team am I watching? Let’s see, we gots AD and???? Can’t wait to watch them! Yahoo!
LBJ

LeBron James Next Team Odds
The Nets are given -175 odds, or an implied 63.6% chance to land LeBron James if he’s traded. However, the Nets aren’t alone on the market. Oddsmakers give five teams at least +750 odds. That includes the New York Knicks who are given +750 odds, or an implied 11.8% chance to land LeBron.
A third stint with Cleveland is also on the table according to oddsmakers. The Cavs are given +200 odds, or an implied 33.3% chance. A return to Miami is another possibility, as the Heat are given +300 odds, or an implied 25% chance.
The only team on the market that isn’t in New York or that James hasn’t played for before is the Utah Jazz. Utah is given +500 odds, or an implied 16.7% chance to land LeBron in what would be one of the most shocking moves in NBA history.
LeBron’s market is small. In fact, it’s the smallest for any player this year. For example, Kevin Durant’s market has 13 teams on it and Kyrie Irving’s has eight. For LeBron to have just five means there’s reason to believe the list is that narrow.
The fact he’s on the odds market at all suggests that a trade may be more possible than people know at this point. Could we see LeBron traded for Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving is arguably the NBA’s biggest blockbuster trade ever?
Oddsmakers are saying it’s a real possibility.

With or without Lebron, this team will be mediocre at best barring a complete reversal of health and focus from AD.
