He's a clown. Alex Rodriguez of basketball. Without the steroids.
Since Nogaf about anything but Warriors-Spurs, he has to drum up interest. What better way than to have a story about his possible future super team?

He contributed to the article and removed the Cavs from his Twitter strictly to get people to pay attention to him. I really am surprised you can be such an avid fan of this guy.
The straight to the NBA guys who play extra playoff games every year get old over night. Like Kobe.
I don't think Lebron has as much time left as he may think. He may already be done.
But as you should know, what an athlete does off the court or on social media means nothing to me.
He is doing for UA what Jordan did for Nike. Literally Billion dollar mistake.
I can't think of one iconic Lebron shoe, but I know as soon as I saw the Curry 1 and the price point I grabbed a pair. At the time I thought maybe it was just living in the bay that made me notice, but the whole world jumped on.
Best basketball shoe I've ever had. Light, supportive, comfortable, and grips the court incredibly well.
Nike is still Alpha by far, but UA really stepped their game up.
I want to see Petersen win a game by doing what's necessary vs what he would ideally do. It's something we haven't seen these first two years. That's where a lot of frustration about his scheme and play calling comes from.
When Connor Cook was hurt, Michigan State didn't throw the ball unless necessary and beat Ohio State on the road. Alabama gave Henry the ball 40-45 times when they needed to. There were games Stanford only threw 10-15 while Hogan (a future pro) was their QB.
I've got one foot on board, I like the general development, but I also don't forget the fuckery we have seen the past two years. The Apple Cup win doesn't cut it.
Now he's just a spoiled narcissitic asshole. The one certifiable point in his legacy's favor has gone up in smoke faster than you can say The Decision.
Combine that with his end of career collapse and he's probably not going to finish in the top 10 players of all time, which is a massive fail for probably the most naturally gifted (blackest?) basketball player of all tim.
I've always said that once his athletic ability went away and he didn't have the genetic lottery giving him advantages that he'd just show himself to be just flat out elite ...
For example, I hardly expect LBJ to have the type of moments that Bird had at the tail end of his career when everybody knew that he was washed up and then all of a sudden he pulled out these moments where he was the best on the court and everybody knew it.
It's also why I've always said Bird >>> LBJ
