Thanks for your pov.
I was thinking they both might say yes ... the rationale being to perhaps better satisfy a bit different window for each
Lebron right now is slightly better imo, but possibly a shorter timeline (and might even be ready to bolt LA now, and LA gets something rather than nothing from the parting of the ways, and GS might be one of the few places who would appeal to LBJ, welcome him, have a trade match, and be a fit) ... GS wants that immediate upgrade (even if it means they sacrifice the potential for longer) ....
whereas maybe LA would prefer the potentially longer timeline of Butler with Luka, perhaps another 4-5 years while also knowing Butler contract ends by summer of 2027 if needed
