Plenty of teams should have picked Bronny for the purpose of swapping him to the Lakers for a couple of their next available unprotected 1st round picks. You don't draft Bronny to get LeBron, you draft Bronny to get LeBron to pressure Laker management to cough up the assets to get Bronny.

People, who know more than I, say LeBron's agent would cause their client players to blacklist any team who dared such a move. Have one of those players on your team, maybe they don't resign when their contract is up.

If my team wanted a player higher in the draft order than they had a pick available, they'd have to trade up in the draft. The Lakers? No, they don't have to do that.


Anyone suggesting an NBA team should draft a player without the intent of actually rostering that player.... probably shouldn't be talking about what NBA teams should or shouldn't do.

Y’all come to a basketball site to talk ball when you dont even watch the full game. Know how I know? Cause if you did you would see that LeBron gets carried and then gets the credit. Dude takes plays off on the court and yall talking about he’s leading USA to gold? This sport is cooked cause of you dumb fans lol


wow you're very smart that you know better than fans, the coaches, execs, etc hopefully someone discovers you soon so you can make millions instead of being a bum lol
