Please don't sign LeBron.
Lebron is exactly what the denver nuggets need, another guy that cannot play defense, and bring on the nepo baby- Lebron James junior !
Actually LeBron can play defense! He’s not the young LeBron but he can hold his own. I say sign him! He will put pressure on the front office to make moves!
