Will he? He is tagging along, Philly had already a killer team by adding a few players and jalen Brown. Chasing rings it is

Don’t worry JB will shoot in the 20s from the 3 and take 20
a game. Great regular season now so much when it matters.

Jumping teams to get championship. Never will be like Mike or Kobe. 76ers are the most loaded team and he just joins them
@rhowshad
July 24, 2026 at 7:18 pm
He’s better than Kobe. Kobe is better skilled and got a deeper bag than him but he didn’t impact the game like him. Yall forget some of them down Lakers years when he was by himself. Jordan over Bron, but I can’t put Kobe over him. And that’s coming from someone from Philly who knew Kobe personally

You know what would be really funny? Lakers vs philly nba finals next year lol. That be funny crazy. Also Stephen A no, without lebron I thought of them as a force to be wreckin with once pick up Brown. Now? They about to waste two years
@PieterHanszoonBruin1973

Jordan joint one of the worst teams when he joined Washington in 2001. Lebron joins one of the best teams in joining Phily in 2026. One is a competitor, the other a ring chaser.

Who cares? They both can hoop and they both are better than you. So there’s that

The price for courtside tickets for a PRESEASON game is already up to $2000. This is going to be amusing.

Will an old washed up 42 year-old fourth option tagalong who doesn’t play D bring a championship to Philly?
Too funny😂

It’s not a question of will, but can he bring a chip to Philly.

Even if he ends up winning another 2 chips at philly, Jordan’s 6X > LeBron’s 6X.

SAS always have a high expectations from the King. C’mon if that 41years old win another ring so what. Philly is not LeBron’s team he’s there to help to win not be the center of attention. The guy just accepted an 8M-2Y contract.

@MatthewGeiser-h1e7t

I think Maxey, Embiid, and Brown will be bringing Philly a title this year with LeBron on the roster getting most of the credit for it even though he’s currently the fourth best player on their roster at this point in his career
