LeBron James on Warriors free agency report: ‘It’s nonsense, and it’s a non-story’

As it turns out, Kevin Durant isn't the only one who thinks that "LeBron's open to meeting with the Warriors this summer" story was bulls***. During the Cleveland Cavaliers' Friday practice ahead of their Saturday meeting with James Harden, Chris Paul and the Houston Rockets, LeBron James spoke with reporters and addressed the elephant in the Internet: the early Thursday morning report by ESPN's Chris Haynes that he "would listen" if the Golden State Wariors "explored ways to clear the necessary cap space" — namely, a maximum salary slot — to sign him in free agency this summer. Of course it did! The idea of LeBron not only leaving Cleveland again but doing so to join the team that's vanquished him in two of the past three NBA Finals, in the process creating a super-duper-team that would further decimate the notion of competitive balance in the league, was just too juicy to resist.
