Completely hypothetical discussion here, because it likely has no chance of happening.

With the advent of Paul Pierce opting out of his contract, freeing up what would be a $20M salary, what if the Celtics put their name into the Lebron sweepstakes?

Makes sense. Boston will forever want to be in contention for championships. When the big 3 leave Boston, Rondo will desperately need support. Lebron would fit perfectly into the Pierce role of leading scorer and team leader. Lebron makes the Celtics even stronger than they are today, which continues to put Boston in NBA championship series.

Lebron gets to play in tradition rich organization, be surrounded by superstars for both the "now" and the "future". He would get the money that he deserves for being the marque player in the league and can add his name to the other greats that have played in the best franchise in NBA history.

Could you imagine lebron taking passes from rondo 2 foot above the rim , WAIT! This would require me to cheer for one of the Leagues money players
