11, Yi Jianlian

Obviously, James has the strongest interest in the Heat.

No way, the thighs here are the thickest!

Her thighs are just thick, but she still has fun!

Wade also needs the ball on the offensive end, but he is a good old man and has a close relationship with James.

As long as James expresses his desire to take control of the team, Wade will not refuse.

As for Bosh, he is the one taking the blame!

Not only can he take the blame, but Bosh is also very right and fits James' taste.

As long as James is here, at least one of the team's power forwards and centers must be able to shoot three-pointers!

Otherwise, how could James have space to rush in?

Bosh's shooting ability is outstanding, and James likes it very much.

In fact, the situation is very clear. Whoever can gather the Big Three, which team has enough salary space, and which team can attract James to join.

Heat president Pat Riley prepared for this two years in advance and cleared the team's space.

Only the Heat can meet this condition!

Of course, what should continue must continue, and talks between James and other teams must continue.

On the morning of July 3, James arranged a meeting with his old club, the Cavaliers.

During the meeting, the Cavaliers revealed to James that they had discussed the possibility of signing and trading with the Raptors to acquire Bosh, and asked James if he would recruit Bosh.

However, James replied that he was not familiar with Bosh and did not understand Bosh's plan.

Reporter Windhorst wrote: "Of course this is not true, no doubt about it, but it doesn't matter because Bosh really has no interest in coming to play with the Cavaliers."

In addition, Yahoo Sports reported that one of LeBron's confidants, William Wesley, told them that bringing in Paul would help recruit LeBron.

But the Hornets had no intention of selling Paul at the time, and the Cavaliers had no way of doing this, so this path was simply unrealistic.

It can be seen from all sources that no matter where he goes, the possibility of James staying with the Cavaliers is very small.

It’s even impossible!

Last season, the Cavaliers' total salary ranked fifth in the league, reaching 83.4 million, which was far beyond the salary cap.

There are many junk contracts, those who can attack cannot defend, and those who can defend cannot attack. James needs to go all out on both offense and defense.

To put it bluntly, the Cavaliers have no legs!

With no legs, no salary space, and no draft picks, the Cavaliers' future doesn't see any bright future.

With James' shrewdness, he will not stay here.

Although the Cavaliers knew that the situation was not good for them, they had nothing to do.

Everything that needs to be done has been done, and now all we can do is wait for the emperor's judgment...

The next person to talk to James is the Clippers.

The Clippers are a good choice.

When meeting with James, the Clippers also believed that James would leave the Cavaliers, but they did not know that if there was enough salary space to sign Wade and Bosh, it would lock James.

The Clippers are located in Los Angeles and the market is huge, which is a very attractive point for James.

In addition, the Clippers don't have a lot of salary space and still have a few capable players.

The first one to bear the brunt is last year's No. 1 pick: Griffin.

Griffin was last year's No. 1 pick. He has a strong body and is favored by many people.

In addition, there is a young star: Eric Gordon.

Gordon can shoot and break out, has excellent physical fitness, and is a good scorer.

In addition, the Clippers also have veteran guard Baron Davis on staff.

Overall, the Clippers are a good choice. They have big legs, salary space, and a huge market.

However, the problem of the Clippers is also obvious, that is, there are many young players and the future is uncertain.

To put it bluntly, the thighs are not thick enough!

Of course, the Clippers also have a fatal problem, which is that the owner has a bad reputation and lacks sincerity.

The Clippers were represented in the meeting with James by team president Andy Russell and general manager Neil Olshey.

At the time, Clippers owner Donald Sterling refused to participate in James' recruitment.

According to a person familiar with the matter, the farthest Sterling ever traveled to recruit free agents was to Newport Beach to recruit Kobe Bryant.

Since the death of Lakers owner Buss, Sterling has become the longest-serving owner of the team in the league.

You know, Sterling is unanimously considered by the industry to be the stingiest boss in the league.

Sterling has long been ranked No. 1 among the worst owners in the league selected by Sports Illustrated.

That's all, Sterling has always been a discriminator against black people, and his wife is no exception. Even his company discriminates against black people.

It is said that Sterling once said that the Clippers' ideal team structure is for a white head coach to lead a group of poor blacks from the South to play.

Sterling is still a weirdo. He often scolds his players, and he does so at the game.

Baron Davis, the core of the 2010 team, is one of the victims.

Because he was dissatisfied with Davis' state, Sterling scolded him directly on the sidelines: "Why did you get the chance to play? Why did you XX throw that ball? You are so fat that I can't even look at it!"

In addition to Davis, Kaman, Bobby Brown, Thornton, and Marty Collinson were all scolded by Sterling during breaks in games or during free throws.

You know, most NBA players are black, so having such an owner is not a good thing.

Being stingy and discriminating against black people, it is conceivable that Sterling is not very interested in recruiting James.

This is intolerable to James.

I can go anywhere, why do I have to come to you to get angry?

I am here to be the emperor, how can I look at your face all day long!

Of course, there is another very important reason why James does not come to the Clippers, and that is that the Clippers are the only Western Conference team participating in the talks.

For a long time, the intensity of competition in the Western Conference has been much higher than that in the Eastern Conference. This is an indisputable fact.

It is much more difficult to break through from the west than from the east!

This is unacceptable to the shrewd James.

What I want is the championship, not mountain climbing!

There are so many roads to take, why should I take the hard road?

So as soon as the meeting ended, the Clippers basically knew they were out.

The Bulls were the last team to meet with James.

Before meeting with James, the Bulls had already met with Wade and Bosh, and they knew that James was interested in joining forces with one of them.

During the meeting, James' words convinced Bulls owner Reinsdorf that he would leave the Cavaliers - "I told him (James) should stay in Cleveland." Reinsdorf recalled, "But he said:

'I'm not from Cleveland, I'm from Akron.' That's when I knew he wasn't going to stay with the Cavaliers."

"We knew that if we could get all three of them at the same time, then we would definitely get James, but we couldn't get all three of them at the same time," Reinsdorf said.

To be honest, James is still very interested in the Bulls.
