Will Love and James reunite?

Per ESPN's Dave McMenamin, from the moment James declared his move to Philadelphia, Love's agent, Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports Management, has been in contact with the 76ers.

Love and James played together for four seasons in Cleveland, making four straight NBA Finals appearances and capturing the 2016 title. Since James left Cleveland, the two have stayed in close touch, even vacationing in Europe earlier this summer with some of their 2016 championship teammates.

The reporter noted that Love is intrigued by the idea of joining Philadelphia to partner with James and chase another championship. However, making it happen could be more complicated.

The 76ers are currently only $1.83 million below the first luxury tax apron and already have 14 players on standard contracts. This means they don't have enough room to sign Love to a veteran's minimum before the season starts, unless they make other roster adjustments, such as cutting a player.

Philadelphia could free up space by waiving Javonte Warren, whose $2.58 million salary is only partially guaranteed. However, reports indicate the 76ers are fond of Warren and would prefer to keep the 24-year-old forward.

Love will turn 38 in September. Last season, he played 37 games for the Jazz, averaging 6.7 points and 5.8 rebounds per game, with a 37.3% three-point percentage.

The reporter added that Love also maintains a close relationship with Jazz head coach Will Hardy, and he is regarded as a valuable veteran leader in the Jazz locker room.

Jazz reporter Jared Koch stated that the interest from the Philadelphia 76ers only complicates Love's potential return to Utah. The Jazz currently have 15 players on standard contracts and no easy path to signing him, though Mo Bamba's contract is only partially guaranteed.

Therefore, a reunion with James is not imminent. But after four Finals trips, one championship, and countless historical moments in Cleveland, Love clearly wouldn't mind trying again.

We would welcome Love in Philadelphia. Besides Love, James has attracted many players with gas left in the tank to follow him over the years. For example, this year he brought KCP to the 76ers.

Going further back, there were players like Carmelo Anthony, JR Smith, Marcus Morris, and Isaiah Thomas from the Lakers era, as well as Channing Frye, James Jones, and Dwyane Wade from the Cavaliers 2.0 era.

James has changed teams four times in his career. The previous three times, he won championships. Now with his fourth team change, can he bring home another title?

Have you noticed a pattern? James has always changed teams after fulfilling his current contract with his previous team. He has never requested a trade mid-season, never left mid-way because the team was struggling.

Yahoo Sports reporter Damien Peters commented: "LeBron James has played the most seasons in NBA history. But in those 23 years, he has never asked for a trade. He has fulfilled every contract, honored every obligation. Nobody has tied the label of 'loyalty' to him, but if you keep every contract you sign, how do you measure that?"

That's a wake-up call. How many players complain to management during a season, wanting to leave? But after being traded, they receive far less criticism than James does for leaving after fulfilling his contract.

James has done everything he could for every former team. The mockery is too much, only because James is so great that he attracts jealousy. Who can blame him for being terrifyingly good?
