Not being a homer. It makes the most sense. He's getting older. Needs some pressure alleviated. Want pressure alleviated? You don't have to handle the rock as much - and you leave that in the hands of Simmons. Stays in the East and completes a dominant core. Players flock (stay - i.e. Redick, Ily, Beli) to play with LeBron, Simmons, Embiid to win a championship(s). Granted - Boston is getting Kyrie and Hayward back next year. You put LeBron on the Sixers next year - who beats them? Would LeBron go to L.A. to play in Magics, Kareems, Kobes, Shaqs, etc 'shadow' so to speak? It just screams 'fake'. Now if he goes to the Clips to be in L.A.? Now that's a story. Houston? So he joins another elite team with Harden and Paul just like he formed one with Bosh and Wade? Yet again - he looks 'weak' and like a 'punk'. Secure your legacy as the greatest of All-Time? Take a couple of young guns like Simmons and Embiid under your wing and to the promise land for 3-4 years. You're solidified as the greatest and there's no discussion about it. |

If the money will be roughly equal everywhere, why would anyone voluntarily go to the Clippers?
He should throw everyone a curveball and go somewhere like Utah or the Pelicans while giving everyone the middle finger.

To be in LA without being in the shadow of Magic, Kareem, Shaq, Kobe, West, Baylor, etc. Or having Lavar around. |

He should throw everyone a curveball and go somewhere like Utah or the Pelicans while giving everyone the middle finger. Because he apparently has 2 homes in L.A. Going to the Lakers is the 'punk' and 'weak' move. Going to the Clips? That's the 'Alpha' move. I don't see either happening though as he'd be going nowhere. Remarkably he's still at the top of his game and there's money to be made and a legacy to be secured. This is the 5th or so biggest market in the country with an up and coming hip and cool (did I just say 'hip and cool'?!?) team. |

But I see neither happening. Final year of his career I see him signing a 1 year contract with the Cavs and retiring. |

There's four of them on the Warriors - - joining two anymore isn't going to look weak, especially after this year. Paul was on the banana boat, Texas has no state income tax, you get to face the dragon directly . . . |

Harden is the MVP this year - CP3 is a HOFer despite coming up short years previous - Harden given time may be a HOFer too..... It's like hopping on the Gravy Train. Looks incredibly weak for an Alpha. He was roasted for what he did in Miami. Rectified it by coming 'home' and winning them a title. He owes them nothing now. But to go back to what he did when he joined Miami? I can't see it. He'd never have Jordan's legacy then. It's Hogan swerving heel for the 2nd time and joining the 'Bad Guys' He joins the Sixers? It's The Young Guns.......... |

To me, it would feel like he's jumping onto a bandwagon if he went with the Sixers - - getting with the young guys to take the pressure off of him while going through the easier East once again. |

He's clearly going to join the Celtics to be reunited with his old friend Kyrie Irving.
