Phil will be doing some coaching behind the scenes. Not sure how Phil will do since he's since used to always having the best player in the league under him. He better wear all eleven rings when he meets with free agents

Just like Pat Riley did when Spolestra(sp) took over as coach.

Kevin Durant is a FA in 2016. Phil could have promised him we will try to get that guy for you. Also a FA is LaMarcus Aldridge, Derrick Rose, Marc Gasol and Anthony Davis.

Nobody is coming to New York....esp if they suck next year. Love, Lebron, and Kyrie will still not stop that machine in San Antonio. I typed earlier that wiggins, kyrie, love and lbj would be nice/fun to watch and yet you said nothing. Now, this combo would win the finals??? It would still be an adjustment period so as of right now SPURS IN SIX lol

I don't think the Spurs get out of the West as easily as you think. You know the Clippers are going to get better. The Blazers are going to get better. If the Rockets get Bosh, they pose a serious threat to anybody in the West. OKC will always be a factor as long as Westbrook and Durant around around. If Golden State could guard, they could be dangerous.

That conference is loaded.

That team wins the East for sure, you don't think?

LeBron was part of cores where the PGs and bigs were the likes of Boobie Gibson, old Mike Bibby, Mario Chalmers, Drew Gooden, Joel Anthony, Big Z that won the East. You don't think LeBron, Irving and Love couldn't do the same?

Lebron makes any team a favorite dude....winning the East is not hard, what is hard is knowing you haven't done ISH by winning the East and prepare to battle the Wild Wild West.

Nah Phil will get folks to New York. San Antonio will have AGE issues soon. Plus their young star will be up for a contract soon. Tony Parker is up next year. The Spurs got one last run in them with this team they got. But make no mistake, Phil Jackson will get folks to NY.
 



Savannah Brinson: 5 Things To Know About LeBron James’ Wife

1. LeBron and Savannah were high school sweethearts. They both attended St. Vincent–St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio and started dating when she was only 16. He proposed on New Years Eve in 2011, surrounded by some of his teammates, shocking and impressing her!

2. She has two children with LeBron. She found out she was pregnant while she was a senior in high school, and LeBron was an NBA rookie. She actually went to prom five months pregnant! LeBron Jr. was born on Oct. 6, 2004, and their second child, Bryce Maximus was born on June 14, 2007.

3. When LeBron joined Miami Heat, she actually wasn’t excited about living in Florida… at first. “Personally, Miami was not my favorite place. Vacationing there is great: You go for three days and get some sun, and it’s time to go home,†she told Harpers Bazaar. “When they told me it doesn’t get any colder than 50 degrees, that sold me. We get below-zero weather in Cleveland. I can’t wait to have a sunny Christmas. It will definitely be an adjustment, but we’ll make it. We’re not complaining.â€

4. She’s only five foot seven, next to LeBron’s six foot eight — so she’d admitted she likes wearing heels because she doesn’t want to “look like a shrimp standing next to him.â€

5. Savannah and LeBron actually have their own furniture line, that debuted in October 2010! She collaborated with American Signature and the line is called Home Court by LeBron James. One day she hopes that she’ll have her designs in Milan’s Salone Internazionale del Mobile

She can still move down there during the winter months. lol
 
LeBron made Pat Riley -- the godfather -- travel across the country on a plane and grovel for him to return to Miami.

He influenced Wade to walk away from $42 million.

I wonder what having that type of power feels like.

Not out of the ordinary. Phil was in L.A. to meet Carmelo. Jerry Buss met with Kobe in Italy.
 
The difference in those cases is that Pat thought LeBron would have signed already and wouldn't need to do that a day before FAs could officially sign contracts. And LeBron was in Miami nearly a week before he left for Vegas.

Kobe was never going to leave the Lakers and Melo was going to leave the Knicks.

LeBron could actually leave the Heat.

Kobe had for a trade and Buss flew across the country AND the Atlantic.
