I said LeBron and KD are in a league of their own as far as stature. Curry is in that next tier which surprised me that he didn't have enough power to keep a winning coach that players loved employed.

That was deeper than rap though. Everybody, even stars, doesn't wield that kind of power anyway.

You think if LeBron was on a team and wanted a coach to keep his job they would still fire that coach?

Right now? Probably

Dude's about win GM Executive of the Year for all the moves he pulled for Cleveland.

All time? MJ, Magic and few others still up there.

After listening to that new Delonte West interview one thing really stuck out besides him basically admitting to smashing Gloria. Dude said LeBron asked him if he wanted to become a Cav and made it happen. Has there ever been a player who had as much power in an organization as LeBron has in Cleveland?

Dude is about to get a 1st overall pick traded, actually he's about to get two 1st overall picks traded because of who he wants to play with. I don't think that has ever been done before. Teams don't trade their 1st overall picks under any circumstance yet LeBron wants it so he's about to get it.

And before any Laker fanboys come in here and say Kobe had Shaq traded that was the only power move Kobe ever pulled and it was only because he could've left and it was either him or Shaq and Shaq was older so he had to go. Wiggins is 10 years younger than LeBron is.

Plus LeBron has the power to get guys like Mike Miller and James Jones contracts. Dude is basically the GM there, has there ever been a nikka that had this much pull in an organization?

This kinda reminds me of when Shaq convinced John Gabriel to trade C Webb to Golden State for Penny on draft day cause they were already on the set filming Blue Chips that spring/summer

The person who said this.



If it's understood and established that Steph is not on Bron's level then what is the point of bringing Bron up here or bringing Steph into the convo at all?

That was deeper than rap though. Everybody, even stars, doesn't wield that kind of power anyway.


Which is why I asked about would it happen under LeBron's watch because he is a star.

:ohhh: Yeah Shaq did claim to be the reason that happened. Dude always said he was a CEO.
