It started with this…
LBJ to philly?

Then this…
Now @wojespn just said on ESPN that the Sixers are not out of the LeBron mix. Like I have been preaching. Trade for Kawhi and land LeBron.

Then this…
LeBron has made his decision & informed those close to him. Expect the official announcement Tuesday morning.

Then this..
Philadelphia is meeting with LeBron James and his reps today in Los Angeles, league sources tell ESPN.
— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 1, 2018
Then this…
Rich Paul, agent to LeBron James, is meeting with the Sixers today in Los Angeles. LeBron won’t be there, though he is at his LA home

Then this..
Lakers & 76ers can offer LeBron the same four-year max deal, but Sixers deal nets LeBron around $11 million because of tax difference between California & Pennsylvania.

Then this..
Per source, Sixers meeting with Lebron was not originally planned.
— Jon Johnson (@jonjohnsonwip) July 1, 2018
So why would the Sixers, who didn’t have a meeting scheduled with Lebron’s camp, mysteriously make one after reports surfaced that Lebron made his decision and will announce it on Tuesday?
ALL SIGNS ARE POINTING TO THE KING COMING TO PHILLY AND COMPLETING THE PROCESS.
Update : 12:30PM July 1st… It keeps getting better.
Among the Sixers' planned top selling points to LeBron James' agent Rich Paul today: Philly believes it still has a real chance to win the Kawhi Leonard trade sweepstakes, league sources say

Update : 1:30PM July 1st… Keep them coming.
On the Sixers and a potential trade for Kawhi Leonard, it’s worth noting that there are several people with Philadelphia who feel confident that Leonard would strongly consider re-signing there next summer if they traded for him.

Update : 5:00PM July 1st… Interesting……..
Sources: #76ers and guard Jerryd Bayless are strongly considering a buyout. Bayless, 29, is owed $9M next season from Philly and has a host of potential suitors looking to add a veteran combo man. Potentially useful cap for 76ers to offer #LeBron the max ($35.6M) next year.
