LeBron wouldn't last a minute in the NFL. Josh McRoberts put him on his ass? Imagine Patrick Willis. One hit and he's done

I'm not saying he would last, but this would have absolutely nothing to do with it. Using an example of someone getting hit in the throat by a 6'10 240 pound man as why someone couldn't take a hit a padded hit in the NFL is wrong.

I really don't have much doubt that LeBron couldn't be a decent player in the NFL. Dude is fucking 6'8'' and 250 of straight up muscle. What corner in the world could guard him?

 

[Hurricane Season]

I don't see any reason why he wouldn't go back to Miami next year.

 

[RipCity32]

^ditto 
Said it for a while, don't seem him not finishing his contact there. Especially if they win it all again.

 

[elcheato]

He has publicly complained about Wade missing so many games due to needed rest. Wade & the team is only going to decline from here on out.
 
He could stay, but I don't see it

 

[RipCity32]

You even said it, where does he go? lol.
I don't see him leaving THIS off-season, if he does. 

 

[elcheato]

A lot of changes in teams can/will occur. Something will open up.

The same ones that guard Jimmy Graham and Antonio Gates, only that Graham and Gates are much stronger physically. I'm not saying he couldn't be a good tight end, but some people act like he'd be all-world.

I don't think he would be all-world either. But I think he could certainly have a decent career in the league. Guy with that size and athleticism, hard to think otherwise.

Really think the only options are Miami and Cleveland, and Cleveland doesn't seem very viable this off-season.
I say he waits, plays another season out with Miami. I think if they 3-peat, he HAS to go back at least to try for the 4-peat. Regardless of the health of Wade or what-not. You can't just walk away from a potential 4-peat. And really, I think as of now the Heat have the best chance to win it all again.

I didn't want to say anything about the Cavs possibility opening up, but if they can acquire a borderline all-star in the off-season to put next to Kyrie & Dion before free agency, I think it makes LeBron think strongly.
 
That's a big if. I don't think he's coming back, but the Cavs are going to have a lot of moving parts leading up.

Yeah my argument is right now he couldn't take the hits, but my friend made the good point that obviously he would change his training regimen to put on more muscle and be less cut and what not, I think he'd lose some of his speed though.

IDK. Personally I can't see him going any either than Cleveland if he leaves Miami. Can't see him wanting to take the same amount of flak he took from leaving Cleveland the first time around.

Plus I think he acts quite a bit when he gets hit lol.
Also I mean, Josh McRoberts isn't exactly a small dude. I mean he and Patrick Willis are the same weight, but Josh has like 9 inches on the dude. While Patrick obviously would pack a bigger hit, I'm sure a hit from Josh would still feel pretty shitty haha.

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Heard Lebron stared down MJ while dunking. Is it true?-

 

[buzzy]

I think he should convert to the World Series of Poker. Lets see how he does. Watch out for Phil Ivey bruh, he cheats.

World Series of Dice, son. Clickety clack

 

[buzzy]

What if they win the title though cheato? No chance he's leaving.

A shot at a four-peat alone sounds too enticing imo.

 

[BwareDWare94]

Safe to say that Memphis/OKC has been the best series so far, eh?
 
I thought Memphis had to win that game in order to have a real shot at taking the series, though. I even thought there would be a good chance the Thunder could crawl out of 3-1.

I don't see it as much of a shot when you'll be counting on Wade even less next year.
