LeBron James opened up public negotiations for teammate Tristan Thompson’s impending restricted free agency Monday, telling reporters that he wants the big man to stick around Cleveland for a long time.

“Tristan should probably be a Cavalier for his whole career,” James said a day after Thompson had a game-saving block in regulation followed by a game-clinching offensive rebound and kickout to James for 3 in Cleveland’s 114-111 overtime win against Atlanta in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals. “There’s no reason why he shouldn’t.”
