Mavs signing Lebron is like Jerry Jones resigning Zeke, more about publicity than performance.
My only thing with Lebron is that defensively he's a sieve now. He constantly lets back door cuts happen to him. Doesn't really move around on the perimeter. He's too old. Replacing DJJ with him seems like a mistake.
Offensively he'd be 10x better there. But do we really need what Lebron brings when you have Luka?
I guess one could make an argument that Lebron would be a 3rd option here and wouldn't be asked to do a lot at all. That'd give him more energy to work on defense. Hard to imagine taking not 1 but 2 steps back behind Luka and Kyrie and accept a role player role.
