    Zion is like the exact size of LeBron (just more chubby than muscular), besides I doubt LeBron would want to add another young player after this season. They'd for sure trade it like he did in the Wiggins draft.

    Yeah, I dont know. Do you think Lebron is a pass the torch type of guy? He hasnt really acted that way. I think if they got the 1st they would trade that for AD, at that point it would actually make some sense for NO too.

    Yeah, as stated above I think that is exactly what would happen.

    That would be a very LAL thing to do - trade Zion in favor of Wiggins, I mean Ingram.

    Why would they trade it away? Lebron didn’t even make the playoffs this year (yes it’s a wrap) plus he’ll be 35 next nba season. 35!! He has what ? 2 more good seasons left if that?

    The type of game Lebron has will drop off the map when age catches up. If anything I have no idea why lakers are being slaves to a 35 year old when he’s going to retire in a few years anyways

    Itd crack me up if they traded the #1 pick for Wiggins.

    I could see them hanging onto him and then trying to sign AD.

    The Rockets are peaking at the right time. They could still end up as the number 2 seed.

    He can't move laterally and teams are targeting him each second that he's on the floor.

    It doesn't help that everyone knows how easy it is to frustrate him, significantly slowing GSW's free flowing offense.

    LeBron James choice to play for the Lakers was clearly not a basketball decision. Not upset that the Lakers are struggling in the least but, I will admit to missing the greatness of "Playoffs LeBron".

    Yay ESPN lets let Lebron congradulate himself for 4th all time on the scoring list, while his team gets dismantled again. My goodness ESPN is obnoxious with the Lebron / LA thing...

    Does ESPN et al showing LBJ highlights 24/7 really bring them more revenue?

    you can try, but if it was me, I think I would choke somewhere around the 'a'
