How many teams have the ecosystem for LeBron, a roster with good enough pieces to talk the Lakers into and a remaining cast that LeBron could compete with post-trade? Anyway, color me intrigued by the prospect of a LeBron trade — even if it is super unlikely.

The Lakers beat the Heat in Game 6 of the Finals on 11 Oct., 2020. The team’s two cornerstones, Anthony Davis and LeBron James, remain, but the rest of the rotation has been turned over completely. Hindsight is 20/20, of course, but the Lakers arrived at a fork in the road and chose the wrong path.

Kevin Durant wanted no part of James Harden on the day their partnership in Brooklyn ended.

Charles Barkley, LeBron James, and the NBA on TNT crew could not help but jab Kevin Durant over skipping James Harden in the All-Star draft.

By Alex KennedyThe Los Angeles Lakers seem to understand that they can’t compete for a championship as currently constructed. “It tells me we ain’t on their level,” James told reporters. James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook have only played 18 games together this season, and the Lakers are 10-8 in those games. He is earning $9,500,000 this season, followed by $10,260,000 next year and a player option worth $11,020,000 in 2023-24. It remains to be seen if the Lakers can pull off a significant trade with these assets.

NBA star says educating underprivileged children about new digital technologies can help ensure they're not left behind.

For a change, though, James is joined in the league’s top class by two first-time All-Stars: Ja Morant of the Memphis Grizzlies and Andrew Wiggins of the Golden State Warriors. Along with Morant and Wiggins, James will be joined by the league’s reigning MVP in Nikola Jokic, as well as Wiggins’ teammate, Stephen Curry. The Warriors have been one of the league’s top teams so far this season, and Wiggins has played a key role. Wiggins benefited greatly from the fan votes, as Green and Gobert had more media votes and player votes than him. Edging out Towns probably gives Wiggins special satisfaction considering the Timberwolves traded Wiggins to the Warriors in exchange for D’Angelo Russell in 2020.

Austin Reaves looked confused, and perhaps frustrated, as he tried to follow LeBron James' instructions during Tuesday's win over the Nets.

When LeBron James gets his sixth point on Tuesday during the Los Angeles Lakers' game at Brooklyn, it'll put him up to 36,387 in his career.

The last helper was a lob that Claxton caught with two hands while soaring over James, who had just helped Los Angeles erase a 20-point deficit. Claxton posterized the 17-time All-Star, then made a free throw for a three-point play and a 118-115 lead.
