So complete hypothetical… who would you be willing to give up for LeBron James?
Let’s get weird
Wild guess… he’s traded to minnesota for KAT
Come home Lebron
I don’t miss that side of the LeBron media circus that follows him.
Why NSFW?
Although he doesn’t have a no trade clause, he does have a 15% kicker added to his salary if he is traded.
No
Nothing.
Just take Bronny with the last pick of the first round and get LeBrons twilight years for cheap.
i ain’t gonna lie a don/lebron/mobley/allen core would put us on level with the celtics.
DG and LeVert for LBJ?
Uhhhhh, done. DONE. Yes please. We’d be instant favorites to make the ECF at minimum.
No, I don’t want the choice back! The Cavs are a battering ram right now. I want a championship without him.
The number of people here that believe this concern me.
we need to give up this dream, its not worth gutting our team
anyone from CLE and really a die-hard cavs fan want bron back? be real and honest haha want some inisght here
I already threw $5 on cavs to win it all. If we got bron I’d actually have a chance to get it back lol
Keep Allen, Garland and Mitchell. Trade Mobley and whatever filler/picks needed. Or Keep Mobley and Mitchell and trade Allen and Garland.
Guy has 7000 followers on Twitter and people still believe he’s got some massive scoop
Who’s Pringle Lord
I think people are seeing it wrong. What if hes returning to Miami? Cavs are made to compete for titles for years not 1 season.
If Spida signs, I’m all for it. It gives us a realistic 2-3 year window to get a title. But if it’s essentially just a rental for the rest of the year, hell no. You can’t give up someone like Garland or Mobley without a longterm commitment.

As crazy as it sounds. I don’t think any team would trade for Lebron.
Who is this guy? Not trying to discredit him, I’ve just never heard his name
I’m sorry but who tf is David Pingalore
The Lakers have traded Lebron to the Lakers and also picked up Buddy Hield, Danilo Gallinari, and 3 2nds in the deal.
Maybe if they buy him out
It’s such bullshit that he’s a FA this summer and the media isn’t saying a WORD about it. The Cavs never failed LeBron as bad as the Lakers have and yet instead of ESPN/NBA Twitter constantly saying he needs to leave they are instead silent or coming up with make believe bullshit trades to try to make the Lakers decent. He is absolutely “LeGone” and all this other trade rumor bullshit about OKC or Golden State or Miami is a joke – the fact major media outlets aren’t talking about how perfect he’d be back on the Cavs is a fuckin shame.
This ain’t happening. Just in terms of optics, the Lakers would get crucified by their fans.
Obviously this hypothetical and the only realistic package the Cavs could offer for Lebron would be DG + a role player. It would just hurt A LOT to see DG go. Especially coming from a fairly new Cavs fan too…….
I thought “LBJ and AD both out tonight” meant the lakers wanted to trade them both tonight lol
At the current timeline of the team, trading for LeBron is not ideal. A trade for him will 100% include atleast one of the young guys (Okoro, Garland, Mobley) and/or Spida. That’s not worth. A free agency signing though is the ideal one.
IDC if you get a chance at LeBron you take it. We would have a higher percentage chance to win especially in the east than anything else we can do. It’s just facts lol
Lebron trade gets mentioned and people who haven’t watched the Cavs since he left are suddenly coming out of the woodwork to set up trades lol
Just funny how that works.
Isn’t this Bron’s last season with LA?
