At the very least we know he reads books for leisure. Trump doesn't. LeBron would at least be able to empathize with poor people and does real charity work.

i can't tell if anyone is being serious, but what makes you think that LeBron is smart enough to like hold political office and make decisions that impact peoples lives? Dude's reading list consists of the hunger games, divergent, sports biographies, and malcolm gladwell books. based on those choices, we'd be heading on a bullet train to dystopia. we are living the plot of loving idiocracy

Lebron would probably just turn the actual operation of being a politician to someone else, probably a friend or someone wearing a sweet throwback jersey. gently caress, at this point I might just be good with that. Lebron Autocracy 2020.

By pointing out he reads for leisure I didn't mean I currently want to elect LeBron. Just that it's likely he could be better at the job than Trump. The bar has been lowered tremendously for all offices if the country can elect someone that doesn't like reading to the presidency. I'm going to be so disappointed when the Mavs get healthy and ruin having a top 3 pick. This season is basically a failure (beyond getting Barnes) unless they get a great draft pick or package their draft pick + a couple of players for a franchise player. Also, I wish LeBron didn't hate the Mavs.

Zach Lowe made the point that it would be a great year for the Mavs to tank since they really wouldn't have to try very hard at this point.

Stating this post hoc means my insight is not insight, but it seems to me that the commissioner and owners got together and agreed that no team would explicitly tank, because it damages the NBA as a tv entertainment product. So if you want to tank, you just pay old guys and take big chances for free agents, that you know you'll miss, overpay decent players, pretend a gang of role players are good enough starters, wait for the injuries to come and suddenly you're at the top of the lottery, like the old days. The basketball might be bad, but it's professional, that's the main thing

Seems weird from an analysis standpoint to not think they already are. It's not like they can possibly dig out of the hole at this point 41 last year was the lowest amount of wins needed to clinch playoffs in the west in recent history 45 wins has been the average or thereabouts for 8th seed in the west this decade Mavs are 2-13 right now. They have to win basically 2/3rds of their remaining games to meet that minimum threshold. They are already done.

I'm glad to see that Dion Waiters is ready to take over the mantle of franchise savior for the Heat of Miami. Taking them to the promised land, one bad jumper at a time. What are they going to get for a slightly used Goran Dragic?
