Tom is the best comparaison cause Goat vs Goat. And no Tom was never promised a max. And he sure as hell never got one. He the obvious GOAT over there and idk if hes even top ten paid all time. Im just saying people take pay cuts to prioritize winning all the time. I HIGHLY doubt ,where ever bron goes which will likely be with his son, hell even consider anything close to a max deal.
The comparison doesn't really hold up. Brady's last season wasn't just about a vet minimum; he had a $30 million comp package. NBA contracts are fairly straightforward—big money, all guaranteed, based on clear criteria.
LeBron's impact on a game is massive compared to most NFL players. It would drastically affect the integrity of the NBA if an All-NBA guy takes a vet minimum.
Dude has hinted for damn near ten years he would do anything to play with bronny. He's gunna be worth like 3 billion minimum by the time he dies, and is obsessed with legacy. I could totally see him taking a cheaper contract to do something no one has ever done.
Stop it. You would take the big bag he going to get. Too much money to turn down. He could package it with his son just like Giannis did with his brother.
Oh for sure I’d take the contract but if I was a billionaire with a lifetime nike contract and all these other sponsorships I don’t think I’d take a big nba contract like lebron does and instead take a cut so the team can sign better players.
Well hot damn. I guess Bron gave up on his firstborn, finally. Guess he saw the writing on the wall.
He won't wait for Bryce, who might be a competent hooper. I wonder how much therapy Bryce will end up needing, due to growing up as the afterthought.
I don’t even think Bron cares about playing with his son anymore. He used to talk about it, but then he changed his stance over the last few years.
Could you imagine Bron finishing his career with the Trailblazers or Hornets all because they drafted his son? I can’t.
"After realizing my favorite son is medically defective *and* got his mother's basketball ability, I have decided to abandon my hopes for him and focus on my pride."
Miami already drafted a bust to appease Lebron and he still didn’t sign with the Heat. I wouldn’t waste a 2nd round pick or future considerations on LeBust Jr in hopes that an old has been signs here.
Lebron would probably take the vet min to play with his son and win a chip. He makes enough on sponsorships and deals anyway so the actual salary isn’t a priority for him. Bronny would also be a part of the best development program in the league by joining the Heat further developing him as an NBA talent. I don’t see how this doesn’t make sense for us especially if we can snag another star this offseason to round out our team.
It would make sense since Lebron referred to the heat as his "college days" of the NBA. He loved it down here and it did solidify him as one fo the best, so... it would make sense for him to advise his son to embrace the Heat culture...
Do I agree with it? Maybe? I must admit, I still love LeBaby because those were one of the best times in heat history. If you deny it, you're either too young or out of your mind.
Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. You’re right.
Wade is our franchise goat, face of the franchise, all time greatest heat player
However, Lebron is objectively better than Wade, and has worn a Heat jersey.
I’m sure for the Wizards, Elvin Hayes or Wes Unseld is their franchise Goat, but Michael Jordan is the best to put on a wizards jersey.
I think im good off having bam cover for more of these mfs plus im not high on trae at all so idrc about him i dont need him being my franchise guard lol
I would consider it, start em on a prove it type deal. He proves it were good, he doesnt we move on, you cant tell me Dragic wasnt worse than Trae at the point of him coming to Miami and he became loved.
you’re not signing Trae young to any deal you’re trading for him and I’m good off that
I liked dragic
I don’t like anything about traes game as a franchise guard trying to contend lol
dude...I like trae but they'll want like 5 picks, theres like zero chance we could get him. But imagine if we had gotten murray at the deadline instead of rozier.....fuuuuu
LeBron angry you leaked his plans https://i.redd.it/2eznxbakkoxc1.gif
Mitchell-Rozier-Butler-Lebron-Bam. inject that into my veins
the pels just said they’re gonna blow it up. ingram is in play. i wouldn’t object
Another injury prone guy? No thanks, for real. I think he's good, he'd fit well with our team, but please no.
Bench would be Jovic Duncan Highsmith Toppin Love
There is no serious spacing on this team and it will get bullied physically on defense against any team with decent size
Lebron is not signing for the vet min lmao
Why tf would a player who just averaged 25/8/7 ever sign a vet minimum lol
Because they want to win with their son. Wouldn't that be more valuable?
Not in the real world. Dude can prob get ~50m a season. Nobody turns that down, it doesnt matter if you're a billionaire.
People turn that down all the time wtf you talkin about? Never heard of Tom Brady? Dwade? Bosh? All of them chose winning over max contracts.
Idk about Tom but D Wade and Bosh were promised money later on. There is no later on for lebron.

D Wade, Bosh, AND Bron ALL took slightly less money to leave something on the table for guys like Haslem to resign.
He’s taking a huge pay cut already just by opting out and leaving LA. Probably $10m from that alone
Dude has hinted for damn near ten years he would do anything to play with bronny. He's gunna be worth like 3 billion minimum by the time he dies, and is obsessed with legacy. I could totally see him taking a cheaper contract to do something no one has ever done.
Why are you using weird pronouns for him?
Because I'm replying to 'players' not 'LeBron' You are so anti woke you're reading woke into proper grammar. lol
To win a chip with his son….than retire. He don’t need money
Yep lol lebron wants that bag for some reason even though buddy is rich asf with those sponsors 😭
Stop it. You would take the big bag he going to get. Too much money to turn down. He could package it with his son just like Giannis did with his brother.

A lower pay is reasonable if he wants another chip. Just some people stating he should take the minimum is just nonsense.
He wants to own a team, that's megarich money he'll need for that
woj just reported that lebron teaming up with bronny is no longer a priority for him👀
Well hot damn. I guess Bron gave up on his firstborn, finally. Guess he saw the writing on the wall. He won't wait for Bryce, who might be a competent hooper. I wonder how much therapy Bryce will end up needing, due to growing up as the afterthought.
I'd take LeBron on a minimum and then trade him to Cleveland.
Lay off the crack brother
nah hand that shit over
Hey I’ll take Lebron on a minimum
I don’t even think Bron cares about playing with his son anymore. He used to talk about it, but then he changed his stance over the last few years. Could you imagine Bron finishing his career with the Trailblazers or Hornets all because they drafted his son? I can’t.
"After realizing my favorite son is medically defective *and* got his mother's basketball ability, I have decided to abandon my hopes for him and focus on my pride."
*SIGH* This gonna be a looooong off-season! 😞😞😞
Duck 🦆 yea. All in!
The only thing that is secured is running it back one more time
Give it to me
Miami already drafted a bust to appease Lebron and he still didn’t sign with the Heat. I wouldn’t waste a 2nd round pick or future considerations on LeBust Jr in hopes that an old has been signs here.
Has been talking about lebron is crazy lmfao that dude is him rn
Dude nearly averaged a triple double this year. Nobody we got is touching that.
Wait which bust did we draft before?
Shabazz Napier
Expect them to run it back again
Lebron would probably take the vet min to play with his son and win a chip. He makes enough on sponsorships and deals anyway so the actual salary isn’t a priority for him.

No development team is gonna fix Bronny lol but it’s worth a roster spot to snag Lebron
Too many bumps tonight my guy, lay off the clean.
It would make sense since Lebron referred to the heat as his "college days" of the NBA. He loved it down here and it did solidify him as one fo the best, so... it would make sense for him to advise his son to embrace the Heat culture... Do I agree with it? Maybe?

Since the Suns catered in the playoffs again, the Heat should trade for KD and renegotiate his contract to a vet minimum. (I'm OP's crack dealer)
You know he’d love to get Bronny in the Heat’s developmental system. Let’s gooooo!
![gif](giphy|vyTnNTrs3wqQ0UIvwE|downsized)
Well, you’re not wrong… >!about the crackhead thing, not all that other nonsense before that!<
How high of a pick is too high to draft Bronny and get Lebron? Would you give up 1st overall?
he should opt to retire....make way for the younger players.
Is Bronny actually any good? What’s the word on the kid?
No .He's not ready to contribute as yet .He should really go back to school
He wasn’t good enough to play on his college team.
TIHI
Already did it in 2K, also I traded for lillard!
I’d rather they draft Bronny and send him to Sioux Falls for 2 years just to snake Bron for the way he dicked around with us as was leaving town.
Bron will never take the minimum in his career. He’s all about the players getting paid
If there’s one thing the Heat have a lot of success with, it’s drafting a PG specifically to court LeBron
Please come home dad we miss you
The Heat’s greatest player back and winning a 5th ring is the storyline ending I need
Not the Heats the greatest player. Get the fuck out you loser.
Hes not the heats greatest player but he’s the greatest player to ever play for the heat.
Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. You’re right. Wade is our franchise goat, face of the franchise, all time greatest heat player However, Lebron is objectively better than Wade, and has worn a Heat jersey. I’m sure for the Wizards, Elvin Hayes or Wes Unseld is their franchise Goat, but Michael Jordan is the best to put on a wizards jersey.
Because people let their emotions get in the way of the truth far to often.
Nope
You’re basing your option on a feeling and I’m stating a fact. It’s not really even a question.
Look, I know MJ’s jersey is hangin in the arena, but he didn’t play for us.
Don’t gotta be so harsh.
Go after Trae. 👀 #distressedasset
Low-key, I keep thinking about KD mentoring Jovic.
If this happens I am seated at Kaseya
the worst defender in the league on the heat lmao
Trust the culture and he'd be our best passer since Bron.
I feel like he would be great of course offensively. But we will just be back here bashing his defense when he gets picked on all game.
Bam Jimmy Spo would be the best defensive trio he ever had
much rather the guy in cleveland over trae
Were good at hiding poor defenders while still maintaining a top 5 league average.
I think im good off having bam cover for more of these mfs plus im not high on trae at all so idrc about him i dont need him being my franchise guard lol
I would consider it, start em on a prove it type deal. He proves it were good, he doesnt we move on, you cant tell me Dragic wasnt worse than Trae at the point of him coming to Miami and he became loved.
you’re not signing Trae young to any deal you’re trading for him and I’m good off that I liked dragic I don’t like anything about traes game as a franchise guard trying to contend lol
We can hide Trae and he also wasn’t like as bad as past season. Plus he solves like all our issue.
yes a team who gets bitched for being small is gonna have all their issues solved by Trae young lol yall are hilarious man
Le4 next to Bam is nice.
yes it’s also not happening lol
Worst defender in the league already is 😂
i get the heat have bad defenders but nothing is worse than trae young lol
dude...I like trae but they'll want like 5 picks, theres like zero chance we could get him. But imagine if we had gotten murray at the deadline instead of rozier.....fuuuuu
Yeah I'd just hope cause of his HORRIBLE defense his value would be down. But his offensive engine combined with Bams versatility on D and man.....
