Le Decision: Part IV · July 2026

Our long national nightmare is over:
Sixers Bound!

LeBron chooses Philadelphia, a city that hasn't seen an NBA title in 43 years and would boo him for bringing it up. The Process is in Year 13 of its five-year plan, Embiid's knees are listed as day-to-day through 2031, and the pitch deck was reportedly just the word LEGACY in a font Joel picked himself. But that's exactly why it's perfect: there is no higher degree-of-difficulty championship left on Earth, and LeBron collects degree-of-difficulty championships the way he collects Bordeaux. Also Jaylen Brown plays here now, which nobody — including Jaylen Brown — has fully processed. Philadelphia will love him unconditionally, for up to eleven consecutive days at a time.
