Imagine if the Cavs get smoked again and Embiid and Simmons have great seasons.
LeBron could be playing for titles again from 33 to 38 riding on the backs of the next Superstar's.
I propose they trade Saric for Bradley and either draft the BPA Jackson or Go with fit in Foxx.
Simmons and LeBron are basically PGs so a team with Bradley and Jackson in the starting five could work.
Embiid
LeBron
Josh Jackson
Bradley
Simmons
Or better fit lineup.
Embiid
Simmons
LeBron
Bradley
Fox
Either way impressive talent level going forward.
They would still lose to GSW and wouldn't get by the future Celtics!
Good stuff, KG.
It's fascinating to ponder the possibilities.
I never would've thought of this but what you propose may be exactly the way, and likely the only way, an aging LeBron can keep his chances of winning more titles alive, by riding the coattails of the next generation of presumptive super stars.
I think the time where he's going to need more help from others than he's able to provide for them is much closer than anyone suspects, HGH or not.
As Liam suggests, let's keep the faith that, in the very near future, the Cs are going to be perfectly ready, willing and more than able to bring The King's reign to an end, regardless.
Just a feeling, but I don't think it's gonna be that long.
