I could see if lebron was playing terrible but he’s the only one playing phenomenal there’s only a few players that can fully decide to be traded where they wanna go and it’s him

He was statpadding putting up empty numbers and playing the worst defense in this league.

Please trade lebron so we don’t have to watch 50 national TV’s games of the Lakers next year lol

This isn’t an insult to LeGM. It’s a blessing in disguise for LeBrown to escape from the LA Cuckoos Nest. 🐦 🪺

SAS is right, get LeBron to a good contending team and as far away from AD and Westbrook as possible.

As much as disagree with JWill constantly, I agree that it is humiliating to trade Lebron. I’m not saying that Stephen A.’s idea is baseless. He makes sense. But trading Lebron would be humiliating.

I think it’s because he’s an elite superstar and when you trade superstars, you usually dont get equal value in return.
So when superstars are traded, it’s usually because they’re unhappy and their presence in the team becomes problematic.
Lakers could trade Lebron for a lot of assets but they wont get anything close to what Lebron brings to the team/franchise.

Lebrons leaving anyway. If I was a Lakers fan I’d want a draft haul and a good young player to build around more than an unlikely chip next year.

And you won’t get that… because why would a team ever give up those things when Lebron is on the last year of his contract.

Disclaimer: I am as big a Lebron fan as they get.
Why when it comes to everybody else getting traded ‘Its a business decision’ but when it comes to Lebron we hear so many sentimental reasons why the Lakers shouldn’t do it?
I agree with Molly, moving him might put him in a better situation that might actually help his legacy for example him running with those young guns out in Cleveland and helping them to develop. The losing situation in LA is hurting his legacy more than anything else.

Wow!!! ESPN talking about LeBron and the Lakers even though they’re not in the playoffs?? What a surprise.

Fkin Jay Bronsexual that’s a stupid comparison. Jordan made Chicago what it is today and Kobe gave his all in LA for 20 years. Emotional little teenage boy should just stick to his LeBron sucking off segment
