That would have been pretty interesting. Two of the best players of the last 20 years paired together for a potential title run

It would have been a perfect combo, but he's a franchise player, so no chance.

Are we really surprised that others in the league are inquiring about these players like Durantula, LeBronda, and the metrosexual Devin Booker?

Some of them come with their own economies.

I've always thought Lebon (LeBronda?) and Curry did not like each other, on a personal level.
Maybe I'm wrong but, I see conflict if they were on same team.

5 lebrons would beat 5 currys 145-77

He saw a potential opportunity- called and ask and got shot down.

I mean - he sees the writing on the wall - it’s now or never. Likewise - Lebron is a short term rental. He wants to play with Bronny - but short of that not much motivates him these days.

I doubt we see him in anything going forward aside from a Lakers jersey. Rumored he would come back to Cleveland - only way I see that is a 1 day deal to “retire” as a Cavalier. He has everything he wants in LA except the ability to win a ring right now. Shows what motivates him - and it isn’t championships.

Whoever wants Lebron must draft his son first to convince him to sign.

I think this is true. He'll try to get his son but whoever does get his son will get him.
