How? Spurs have no cap room and Lebron would have to take a massive discount if they somehow deal Gasol/Mills. Pop isn’t even in Cali I bet. Lebron told him weeks ago it wasn’t happening I bet.

People were saying that Wagner had to be included in trades whether it was for the Spurs or for Lonzo Ball + Wanger for whatever... yeah Lakers aren't trading .

The Spurs would easily dump contacts if it means getting LeBron

Lakers FO over value there players

Can we just trade Kawhi for Kasper Schmeichel and call it a day?

[pad300]

Understand the game theory trade offs. If Lebron is willing to go to PHI

1) PHI (current) < BOS (Current) < PHI (current) + Lebron

BOS must make a move or be locked into 2nd in the east for the forseeable future. PHI may need to get KL to get Lebron. Both teams will put packages on the table.

2) PHI (+Lebron + KL - Fulz - filler ) >>> BOS (Current)

BOS must top a package of Fulz + filler (picks,saric, covington, prospects). Boston must put at least Brown + SAC pick + MEM pick on the table

3) BOS (+ KL - Brown) ?=? PHI (+ Lebron)

However, this circles back to 2 if PHI gets KL. PHI might be comfortable with this, thinking Lebron is top trump.

but

4) PHI ( +KL + Lebron - Simmons - Filler + SAS roleplayers + SAS 2019 pick ) >> BOS Current.

PHI can top any offer from BOS by putting up Simmons. (Except maybe a godfather offer: Tatum + Brown + SAC pick + MEM pick?)

5) BOS (+ KL - Brown - Tatum) ?=? PHI (+ Lebron )

Does Ainge believe 5) or does he believe BOS (+ KL - Brown - Tatum) < PHI (+ Lebron )


Who blinks first?

Let's be honest Spurs were never in the running. Spurs are only about basketball and family. Lebron is about trying to become Tony Stark.

Who the wants Moe Wagner?

51?

I see him doing it. He's gonna be the leader of a young, long, athletic team, in the biggest possible market for him. The media marketing gurus already setting it up. He's going to be the new face of LA and push his business and political aspirations out of the stratosphere. Normal fans will eat it up and Lebron will have successfully navigated into the biggest business, entrepreneur, and philanthropist role after basketball he could possibly be in. Not everything revolves around basketball. He's thinking of the possible billions he can make at LA. Not to mention true bball fans see LA players actually have potential. Spurstalk posters are sometimes very irrational.Also to note that the media was pushing stronger than ever to promote Lebron's legacy as the GOAT more than any previous year by a wide margin. Strategy was probably to set up a move to LA with no pressure of winning anymore. ESPN has been promoting it. I think it's a done deal.

Brons got swept with experienced Cavs whose been there 4 times. Do you think he can do better with inexperienced 2-3 yrs players without Kawhi. Re LA as business site, MJ is a mogul billionaire but I don’t remember him a Laker. Bron can do the same in Philly while picking up 2-3 rings on top. imo

51?

Not sure we can count that. Jabari doesn’t have an original thought tbh.

It's amazing how ESPN and other reporters misread this entire situation.

I know, you're right but even if it's 1%

i hope pop be able to turn around this f situation

LeBron doesn't need to go to LA to be in the spotlight.
