I am quite surprised Lebron signed a 1 plus 1 to stay with the Lakers for at least the next two years...and probably 3. Maybe I shouldn't have been. It just seems like for a guy who wants one more championship or 2, that he would leave his options open for a bit.
I do wonder if this means LAL will be more willing to offer multiple picks in a trade? Mortgaging your future will still be an issue regardless, but at least they don't need to worry about Lebron leaving after the season. A healthy Lebron, a healthy AD, and lets say a sane Kyrie is still a beast to handle. The issue is they are pretty thin everywhere else.
