LeBron James joining the Nuggets would be fun, but there’s no way Stephen A. Smith, Kendrick Perkins and ESPN will allow that to happen.

Kiz: At age 41, with four NBA chips on his resume and a net worth on the filthy-rich side of $1 billion, King James is still chasing attention. It feels a little desperate to me. He’ll never be as good at hoops as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Michael Jordan, but James is the unquestioned GOAT of managing his brand. So what would be best for the Bron brand at this point? I’d say it’s a sentimental journey back to the Cavaliers. Then there’s the choice behind Door No. 2: The ability to say you’re the only player in NBA history to win a ring with four different teams. The Nuggets could check that box. But there’s only one man with the power to shock Stephen A. silent by making a Bron move to Denver happen. He lives in Serbia. Nikola Jokic doesn’t need to beg James, or even sell him. But Joker could matter of factly tell the King: I’d be the best teammate you’ve ever had.

I think the Nuggets are a viable contender for James. Why? No. 1: A lego chance for another chip in Denver; No. 2: A two-hour flight from his home in Los Angeles; No. 3: Getting Jokic another ring would be a compelling story for his legacy, and No. 4: A longstanding relationship with team president Josh Kroenke.

Kiz: What does Bron really want? If his top priority is playing golf, then it’s got to be Miami. If he wants to feel the adoration of a long goodbye, then going home to Ohio is the logical choice. If he feels a strange urge to be constantly frustrated by Joel Embiid’s injuries, Bron might rather be in Philadelphia. If he wants to enjoy old-school rap in the locker room, then crank it up with graybeards Steph and Dray by the Bay. And if he wants to break the heart of Nuggets Nation? Join forces with the Ant Man in Minnesota, and remind Denver why it was so unwise to let Tim Connelly go to the Timberwolves.

I would love King James in Colorado. I’ll give it a 30 percent chance of happening. And I will add, Kiz, it would be great for your business.

– Joe, always be closing

Kiz: In terms of the media game, know who would benefit the most by having James in the Denver locker room? Jokic. Our lovable big guy is camera shy and publicity adverse. If Jokic never had to do another interview, it might add five years to his career. While the media horde chased LeBron, Joker could slip out the back door of Ball Arena.

And today’s parting shot is a firecracker loud enough to chase an old dog under his bed.

For the first time in ages, Kiz, I was able to get through your column and maintain a little joy and optimism. Thank you for supporting the U.S. men’s soccer team, and I strongly recommend you stay on your Prozac.
