But then again I go back to my original query, that if he wants to compete with Jordan for the GOAT title and knowing that he can't be 6-0 in Finals appearances, would he consider be a modern day B-Ball Messiah who delivers chips wherever he goes. Plus he would get to team up with his boy Melo in NY and then possibly CP in LA. That would be quite a legacy.
It'll be a 1 and 1a scenario for Lebron when compared to Jordan. You pretty much need to superteam in the 21st century(the Pistons the exception) to win a title, so for Lebron to reel off 6 consecutive Finals appearances and 3 titles is comparable to Jordan's 6 in 8 years.
Lebron will never be the GOAT due to the imperfect record, but he's definitely passed all his other contemporaries (Kobe, Duncan, Curry) due to his feats and unbelievable performances.
Hey, if he feels real generous and wants to help Melo to get out the cellar, be my guest!!!
Despite all the love for RoLo, from a dreamworld perspective you have to consider KD as the optimal off-season signing. Followed by LeBron as choice two. With a frontcourt of KP/Melo/KD, you have perhaps the highest octane front court seen in a decade. In a small ball style offense, you really make no defensive sacrifice. The backcourt will fill itself in. I know I posted this before, but it seems like it belongs here in this fantasy thread. LeBron can sign for the Vets Min and play PG....
