The Spurs have been doing this for a long time. I do not dislike Lebron. I have no issue with him. I just do not see him as a fit for the Spurs. The 04-05 season is when SAS changed their philosophy, 9 years ago.

Or how about when Jordan retired the 1st time and the bulls still almost won the east. Pippin almost won league MVP. The cavs when lebron left became the worst team in the league. The current heat team without lebron would lose 1st rd of the playoffs IMO. Mj was lucky to be drafted to Chicago. Lebron was unfortunate to be drafted to Cleveland |

![]() I have stated my reasons, more that just less minutes. It is my opinion, I don't see him as a fit, and I doubt we will ever find out. You don't agree with me, thats fine.

![]() Jordan was paired with a top 50 player of all time in Pippen, one of the best defenders/rebounders, tremendous role players and had the best coach. He is the man, but he didn't need to leave to "chase" rings, he purposefully took less money (which he more than made up for through endorsements) to make those things a reality.
James took less money to go to the Heat and Jordan did not opt out and take less money, he was paid 30 and 33 million a year when the NBC TV contract was renegotiated in '94 and gave teams the money to hand out huge contracts. Jordan was the highest paid or 2nd highest paid player for most of his 8 year contract before breaking the bank, James just barely made the top 10 and was tied with Bosh on his own team last year. |
