He should go to the front runner of his choice.

Randle, a good role player, remaining salary matching and a FRP for Bron. In the absence of a good role player (Hart, Divi, Hartenstein), another FRP. This is a fair deal for all parties. Knicks still with assets to continue to improve.

Lakers use Randle's salary and combine with their own picks to star chase while retaining depth.


Yeah. In a scenario where LeBron has told us he's leaving one way or the other, I'm totally cool with Randle plus some picks. Randle has his warts for sure, but I still like him. They probably do end up trying to use him as the salary to trade for a star that demands out, but in the interim I'd have fun watching a (not that good) AD, Randle, Reaves, Vando, Rui, etc. team.

The Cavs are a better storyline though, less of a mercenary move. Still good odds to come out of the East, with the Cavs giving up some combo of Strus + LeVert + Niang as salary and their first from this year to make it happen.

Golden State would be the biggest sellout move but could get him a ring and he could play with Curry. Wiggins+Paul gets the salary done, with CP3 getting some guaranteed cash before the Lakers cut him.
Lol why do you think anyone would want Randy?


They would take OG, Hart and Mcbride and you can keep your Randy, whom Lebron sign off on dropping him from the Lakers. Just be glad Pelinka will let you keep Brunson for the GOAT.

All of your lopsided suggestions can only be viewed as a joke...


No one is giving up all that for a 40 year old. This would be a sign and trade cause Bron has an opt out year. Lakers would ask for a picks and a couple pieces but they don't have the leverage to even think of asking for Hart or OG.

OKC! Young up and coming team, deep team with lots of youth. Great FO and great coach . Bight future. The Thunder could use an established with championship experience.

The Lakers are too old, declining. Also, possible that they mite fire and hire their 50th coach ever since Phil Jackson retired over a decade ago.

You think he will do a sign&trade and trade on a vet minimum? He's a business man taught by his trusted agent and last I check, your Knicks don't have the cap space otherwise they would never had gave up their top pick to the Pistons in Duren just to dump a role player on them to be able to sign Brunson the max Lol

And the Lakers has NO interest in taking your Randy back since they originally cut him to avoid this....

This never gets old since it's still relevant due to his IQ

So I guess LeBron is not a big enough star so they have to use him to trade for your Randy to use for star chasing another one?

Lol now I am positive posters on here don't think for even a second before making suggestions

Why are these the only 3 options? Where is Golden State? Dallas? Philly? Miami?

Would be crazy if he went to the Cavs for a 3rd time. Probably stays with the Lakers.

99.9% chance he's staying and retiring as a Laker.

Philly if not LA. Maxey can help Joely & LeBrony coast through the regular season and they can lose in round 1 together next season! ;-)
