#3 Philadelphia 76ers
Long-term, James knows that his best chance to win is still in the Eastern Conference. While the 76ers are showing some signs of immaturity this year, their talent is undeniable. James would join Joel Embiid, Dario Saric, Markelle Fultz, Robert Covington, and his protege, Ben Simmons. Because the 76ers used a loophole for Convington's extension, he has an extremely affordable contract for the next four years, after this current season.

Simmons has potential to be a bonafide superstar, also he and James share the same agent - Rich Paul. Not only would James still be able to compete in a weaker conference for years to come, but there would legitimately be other options to take the load off of him.
