Cleveland or PHX or OKC or Knicks would also be fun.

Luka and Lebron are the two biggest names in the NBA, but on paper its just a bad combination and the age gap doesn't make sense.

LAL get one or two young players to team up with Luka like Evan Mobley or Kel Ware.

Lebron get to team up with Wemby or Garland for one more season before calling it quits.


where lebron doesn't fit - okc, cavs, mil, bos, den, nyk,

Lebron for Mobley, Donovan Mitchell, Tristan Thompson

Losing Mobley will be a hard pill to swallow, but Allen, Lebron and Garland will be good enough to beat BOS in the east and get another Finals appearance for Lebron.

I doubt MIA is trading Ware for Lebron at this stage. And CLE is for DAMN sure not trading Mobley to watch DM, Garland and Lebron 3-man weave for 42 minutes a game... :lol:

Celtics for Jaylen Brown? Lakers can eat Brown's salary and he and Luka can play together for the next 6-8 years of their primes giving them a complimentary duo. Lebron gets to contend for another title and add to his resume becoming first player to win 4 rings at 4 different stops. Celtics overjoyed not having that anchor (salary) tied to their leg as Jaylen and his considerable mileage, ages and play gets worse.

Only if we can get the next best thing in basketball after Bron, which is Bronny, otherwise no deal :wink:

LeBron has a no trade clause, he ain't going anywhere.

No trade clause so, you really only trade him if he wants to be traded, and you can only trade him to the place he wants to be traded.

THis picture shows everything that is wrong with that bandwagon, and why no other superstar really wants to play next to (or, as shown here, behind) LeBron. :lol:

LeBron to GSW for Kuminga and contracts that will allow this trade. i can really see this happening now for the reason that this is wild too. LOL


thats the only scenario i can imagine right now. the lakers probably want a clean reset and lebron wants to play with curry, that is no secret. are the warriors ready to do this? i dont know.

i really dont see lebron wanting to play with luka and his style.
im bout dat action boss

Cleveland isn’t anywhere as near as dumb as Dallas. There’s still smart teams. You just have to find the dumb ones to exploit.

I assume Lebron would waive his NTC, he's not going to retire as Luka's sidekick.

Why on earth would the Spurs want LeBron James?
