Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[cow]

Side observation about "what if he asks for a buyout?" -- DAL makes sense as a place he would wish to be if he's picking a place after a buyout, with Kyrie and AD already here. But sheesh, what would we do w yet another F??? No money, no minutes, no roster spot - yep, Lebron is on the way!!

You'd let him run the offense which is obviously the biggest weakness of the team until Kyrie comes back and our big team just gets bigger.  He still incredibly productive and would probably be even more so in this scenario since he wouldn't be required to play nearly the minutes as he does in LA.

I don't think it will happen as I don't see a buyout being a real possibility.  

Would I trade for him?  Possibly, but I don't think the Lakers would give up what I'd require to make the deal.  I'd also have to talk myself into being in the LeBron business for three years not to mention working that out with his camp and our salary cap.
