And BTW, the Cavs did a bad job building around Lebron. Their only homegrown player that they got that was really any good bolted to Utah because the owner was shady and they hired a coach that had no interest in holding Lebron accountable for anything (their "offense" was Lebron doing whatever he wanted, didn't challenge him to grow his skillset beyond what he came in with, and let him be a mediocre defender). The best player that Lebron played with while he was there was, what, Mo Williams? Shaq was WAYYY over-the-hill and a bad fit, and Jamison was also over-the-hill and too little too late. And what did he get them besides years of undeserved success that no one else in that draft could've dreamed of? Well, exactly that, but nothing more, because they didn't deserve it.
Players will stay if they think their best chance to win is where they're at. If the Jazz are so miraculously fortunate to have the first pick of the draft next year, their job is first to draft BPA and second to field a team that is impossible to walk from. If worrying about if that player will leave in 7 years affects their decision, then they don't deserve to be in the NBA.
