What a horrible day for the NBA competition wise that he signed with a west coast team.

As for East coast teams they are happy Lebron is gone unless he signed with them.

Celtics and 76ers probably have the best chance next year to make the finals out of the East. The Raptors won't get over the hump come playoff time unless they add some more talent.

Lebron will be retire a Laker and hopefully get no more championships.

In the East LBJ was almost a lock to make the finals with any team he chose but the Lakers will have to add someone else otherwise they won't get past the Warriors and maybe not Houston with their lineup currently. They do get the bump to #3 or #4 in the West immediately from signing Lebron obv.

If anything by this move Lebron won't pad his nba finals losing record since if he gets there with the Lakers they are nearly locks to beat the team from the east.
