With LeBron James opting out to re-sign with the Los Angeles Lakers, the superstar is considering opening up a pathway for the team to obtain the full midlevel exception for the right targets, league sources tell @NBAonTNT, @BleacherReport.

    He will only do it if the Lakers find a player that he finds worthy of taking a paycut for imo.

    Considering? Sorry LeBron but if you wanna win a chip with your son, you’re gonna have to. No ifs, ands, or buts about it

  3. NotVexingPi3

    If he takes a pay cut, Rob has no excuses lol

  4. Vegasguy3124

    Gimme my upvotes back. Yā€™all said he wouldnā€™t opt out. I said he will

  5. PretendDubs

    If Lebron is willing to do what it takes to improve the team. The Front Office has to do the same

  6. Theoneandonlylog

    Unless they make a big trade he’d have to take a huge discount to open up the mle

    Also Rob as been pretty bad at mle singings. I wonder who would be worth it for LeBron

  7. Klay, DeRozan, Jonas which one you picking??

    Also think there will be a trade involving DLO that targets another player

  8. Hot_Pie1464

    Rob better deliver. Bron is willing to do his part

  9. Odd-Direction9452

    I see Klay and Derozan as the top targets with the Full MLE. Or that money is split between Chris Paul and Jonas.

    Whoa, with the opt ins, heā€™s gonna have to take a significant pay cut.

    I think I read that if DLo didnā€™t opt in, he would have only had to take a $4 mil cut per year

    Edit: LeBron would have to take a $16 mil a year pay cut to get the full MLE.

    Who is realistically even out there that would help a lot? Free agency isnā€™t what it used to be.

  12. nickjames1984

    I don’t care what they say about you Bron! If you do this you’re fine by me!

  13. CabbageStockExchange

    I hope he does. I doubted he would but if he does I wonder who we can convince

  14. Unless we are getting Klay or someone Lebron respect he not going do it

  15. mattdingus2002

    Most people mentioning a guard, why not get a defensive center? Someone like a Clint capela?

  16. goatnxtinline

    Can we take a step back for a second? Not once did I think we would ever get LeBron James for a major part of his career being in the east for a majority of it. Wild how things work out.

  17. bagustin8

    They must have a guy lined up already. He ainā€™t taking a pay cut for anyone, gotta move the needle.

  18. Wise_Ad_112

    I said this yesterday and ppl were like ā€œin what world would Lebron take a pay cutā€ lol

  19. HeaterWylin

    How do we feel if itā€™s possible? Both picks, Austin, Knecht, jhs and what ever other contract to match to get Lauri.

  20. ParticularUnlucky139

    This is why drafting Bronny was worth it. Bron willing to take a payout to improve roster in free agency

  21. OkBeginning1407

    I think heā€™s ok with the pay since heā€™s taking bronnyā€™s salary

  22. randomly_responds

    He really wants Jr to become a champ the first year in the nba
