I heard a lot of people say before Lebron got out of high school that his upside might not be as great say as KG or Kobe coming out because he was already so big. The thought being those guys grew into their body frames and had more to gain from the increased weight. Well, Lebron's looks like he still picking up mass. How big is this kid gonna be? I mean I was watching him in the Olympics and he seemed like he would have easily overpowered most PF's out there.

I think even if Bron never touches weights again in his life, he might still gain 10-15 pounds over the next few years. Unless LeBron makes a special effort to diet and keep weight off, it seems like he will keep naturally increasing in size like you said. If he also keeps lifting weights on top of this, I have no clue how heavy he could get. If that is the case, he could hit 260 and beyond one day. James has a wide frame to support a ton of weight. So he doesn't have to worry right now. But if that weight keeps adding up, one day he might have to ask himself if it hinders his performance (now it clearly does not).

His combination of speed and strength is what makes him so unique, now long term I agree i'm not so sure all that weight is a good thing.

Even as a power player, he could still play effectively @ 230-235 or so.

he is 240 too big to be quick enough for shooting guard there fore he will mature into an small foward

He'll be a pretty quick small forward though.

One thing I didn't anticipate when LeBron was coming into the league was that he'd be such a physical presence with his strength... he's got a physical presence that many power forwards don't have. I didn't really expect that he'd be faster than everyone else end-to-end, either. LeBron was hyped but I think he was actually underrated as an athlete at that time. People were being conservative about it because he'd only played against High School kids at that point.
