He's getting older and I think a younger stud will allow a possible longer stretch of competing for chips. If LeBron leaves, he's officially a mercenary. The team is too young to pair with a player who needs to win now.
We'll see how young the team is by next summer. There are two ways to go. Build a superteam (Spurs, Warriors, Lakers) or form a superteam (Heat, Cavs, '08 Chowds). The latter is obviously Magic/Rob/Jeanie's plan.
Hopefully between, Nance Jr., Ball, Clarkson, Zubac, Randle and Ingram they can keep four of those six. All acquisitions should be under 30 years old. That allows them to compete for a nice stretch without having a short window. Randle and Clarkson are the two who I see not making the cut. For financial reasons as well as lower ceilings. I don't include Nance as far as a low ceiling, because he is the type of role player championship teams need (A.C., Horry, Fox). Randle wouldn't never adjust to that role. My hope is that they can build a winner and still stay relatively young, but what do I know. Don't want LeBron though....too much cap space for his age and he shortens the window.
