San Antonio Spurs

Purely from an on-the-court standpoint, this one might make people the most furious of all. LeBron James joining the most successful franchise of this generation would be sure to make your head explode.

While James is the one that draws the most comparisons to Michael Jordan, he could head off to San Antonio and help Tim Duncan become the ultimate comparison to Jordan by helping him match the greatest of all-time in rings. All this team would have to do is win one more title and Duncan would get his sixth, allowing him to walk off into the sunset with a smile on his face.

As far as coaching goes, there really wouldn’t be any issues there. While we thrived off of the David Blatt-LeBron drama this past season, as a basketball player James is smart enough to sit back and listen to everything Gregg Popovich has to say.

This pairing would be such a well-oiled machine that they’d probably win about 60 games and walk away with the NBA Championship in rather easy fashion by the time all was said and done.
