I used to be a Nets fan when Kidd was on the team, I jumped ship with him to Dallas, still root for NJ. And if they can clear some cap room, they can certainly get LB's attention. Good young cast in NJ, not to mention a superstar in D Harris. If LeBron does come to NJ however, say bye bye to Vincanity. I would love to see LB in NY or NJ, seeing him live at home a couple times a year would be insane!!"CFB YTD: 5-8-1 -16.2"

Yi should be gone this off season, he doesn't click with the Nets and doesn't play as well as was expected when traded for Jefferson . That trade was part of the reason I gave up on NJ altogether. Anderson is a good young kid, along with Boone inside. Dooling and CDR are also great role players."CFB YTD: 5-8-1 -16.2"

LeBron + Devin Harris has my vote for the title if it happens. People don't realize nearly how good Devin is, he is IMO a top 3 PG in the league. Not to mention a prolific scorer. Something LB hasn't played with his entire career is another guy who can fill it up, like Harris can."CFB YTD: 5-8-1 -16.2"

I drafted Lopez on my Fantasy roster last year and i watched him closely all season. He is going to be a double-double machine with 20-10 possible every night out. I love that guy too and he can't be left out (IMO).

That is a huge myth. Of the top 10 richest athletes, only 2 (#6)A-Rod and #10)Jeter by 3 million) resides in New York City.
You don't need to be in New York to cash in on advertising. That's wrong! Look at the section titled endosements! Jeter and A-Rod have the LOWEST in the top 10! So saying that the extras in endorsements would cover any tax - that's ridiculous.
Besides, if that Chinese firm buys part of the Cavs, that kind of marketing in would trump anything that LA or NYC would have to offer. Please believe that!
And as far as taxes are concerned, it does play a huge role in where a player goes to play or where a weathly person decides to reside. Am I thinking of the Boston Bruins owner? or Buffalo Sabres owner... anyway, the dude is going to save like $3,500 A DAY by moving to Florida where there is no state tax.
It is a big, big deal. And that extra money from advertising because you're in NYC is a huge myth...

Look at Kobe vs. LeBron! Kobe who lives in Los Angeles by your logic should make more on endorsements and advertising. Why doesn't he? A dude from Cleveland, Ohio! the RUSTBELT! makes more in endorsements than he does! You don't need to be in NYC or LA to cash in!!!2019 SEASON

You make a good point, Lopez does have one issue however, and that is his mid range shooting. If he could learn to consistently knock down 10-15 footers, he would be lethal. With the drive and kick offense the Nets run, Lopez gets a lot of looks from 10, 12 feet out and if he knocked those down with any consistency he would open the floor up tenfold for the Nets. Needs to expand outside the paint basically.
I am a big fan of CDR as well, not the best shooter, driver or dribbler, but gets things done every time out and understands his role on the floor."CFB YTD: 5-8-1 -16.2"

He is making 28M in Cleveland, it certainly won't be going down if he moves to NY, is all I am saying. Going to NY, in the long run, will not hurt his bankroll, he will also be signing the most lucrative contract in NBA history, no matter who he signs with. Taxes really won't be a problem."CFB YTD: 5-8-1 -16.2"
