Windhorst on why Cleveland is doing the Harden deal The key here is that the Cavs are moving away from believing in the Core 4 and I think the genesis of this is because they're worried that Donovan is not going to re-sign this summer

Windhorst LeBron's intention is to play and the focus right now is making a deal with the Lakers They are negotiating I think he's going to try and make a deal with the Lakers The league generally believes the two sides are going to come together

Windhorst If LeBron Doesnt Make Up His Mind Soon Hell Likely Be Out Of LA If LeBron isnt ready to make up his mind the consequence is increasing the chance of the Lakers moving on I think LeBron fully understands that

Windhorst The Miami Heat are expected to lose Norman Powell in free agency unless he takes a huge discount

Windhorst Some of the owners who are trying to get LeBron were talking to each other and were like have you heard anything Nope Have you heard anything Nope LeBron is reaching out and talking to players on some of these teams and they report back to their GM or coach Hey LeBron called

Windhorst reacts to the Trae Young contract I think this is instantaneously one of the worst contracts in the league I don't mean to be mean I don't think they could trade this contract unless they attach the number 1 pick to it

Windhorst on LeBron He doesn't seem like he's going to live in Philadelphia full time seems like he's going to live at least part time in New York I don't even know how to frame it because it's really truly unbelievable
