LAL/OKC/ATL/NOP - Bron to OKC

[kds92]

Crazy trade idea that's unrealistic so this can be locked. The premise is that LeBron requests a trade in order to pursue a title this year and plans to opt out in FA. This assumes that he doesn't choose a specific destination (although he likely would in reality).
I honestly have no idea what LeBron's value is, so apologies if this is way off. Think OKC could be a good fit for him.

LAL In: Ingram, Bertans
LAL Out: LeBron, 2029 1st
Lakers bring back Ingram. They look to flip Bertans + JHS + SRPs/swap for a defensive guard (maybe Bruce Brown).

OKC In: LeBron
OKC Out: Giddey, Dort, Bertans, Poku, 2024 HOU 1st, 2025 PHI 1st
Thunder go all in for a title this year. They may be giving up too much, but I'm unsure of Bron's or Giddey's value.

ATL In: Giddey, Dort, Poku, 2024 HOU 1st, 2025 PHI 1st, 2029 LAL 1st
ATL Out: Murray, Okongwu
Hawks reset with a defensive wing, take a chance on Giddey, and get 3 FRPs. Maybe they'll try for KAT this summer.

NOP In: Murray, Okongwu
NOP Out: Ingram
Pelicans get their PG and center upgrades who are locked into good deals. They do this because they don't want to pay Ingram.

Not sure the Pels want to dump Ingram. Not sure Murray and CJ fit well as both are better on ball. Not sure that OKC wants to lose both Dort and Giddey at the same time. Dort’s shooting has been good and his defense is important to what OKC does. Also I wonder if ATL doesn’t cut the Lakers out and take Ingram to play with Trae and Jalen Johnson. It is an interesting idea, but I just don’t see it.
