LeBron declines player option (entering free agency)

[SharoneWright]

Indy doesn't need or want 3 2nd rounders.

We trade Indy #31 for #36 and #50. Indy moves up to grab the first pick on night number 2.

We likely get who we wanted at #36 anyway and then take Bronny at 50, right before the Lakers would have taken him at 55.

Then we leverage the heck out of the Lakers (might piss off Klutch, but watchagonna do)

[Dennis 37]

This is great news. Now, when we draft Bronny and offer him up in trade for the next two unprotected picks the Lakers are able to trade, LeBron has leverage to ensure Lakers make the trade.

If Lakers balk, we tell LeBron to find a team that will agree to our deal, and he can sign there for whatever ever cap space they have.

Philadelphia about to pick Brony James with the #16 pick

bring him home

Lol our best Free agent signing was Hedo....Turned out to be a disaster but at that time he signed here he was legit...There is no way we get LBJ even as a 40 year old man...Hes going back to LA even if we drafted Bronny at 19...Lol

[TorontoBarneys]

He really should go to a different team and have another shot at a chip. He's just wasting away on the Lakers until retirement. He should have another year or two left in the tank, possibly 3 if he scales down his role.

Pretty sure he is looking where Bronny lands, and will sign there. He has his Rings, he has his money. He probably wants to fulfill a dream and play with his Son.

[pilkoids]

Lakers probably have a trade lined up for a 20's pick and relayed that info with proof to LeBron

[Merit]

Back to Miami to play with Butler would be kinda awesome. But in all likelihood he just re-signs in LA. He's always maintained his flexiibility.

As long as Riley is there, Lebron ain’t ever gonna consider Miami lol

Can you remind me of the Riley/Lebron issue?
