    I can’t imagine who Or what they’d trade. But as an over the cap team drafting players is a good Way to add talent.

    This is what I referred to in my article about trading EG for a lottery pick.

    It can be used as ammo for lebron, or clears cap space. We can take that lottery pick and use it to have them take Ryno.

    This pairs well with the report Cp3 would take take less money to bring in lebron.

    Yes there a few teams from Philly at 10, possibly one of the clippers picks, the nuggets.

    There are a few teams who are not completely tanking that could utilize EG. he also has 2 years on a reasonable contract

    True. But the Rockets could use Eric Gordon.

    The absolute beat case scenario for a mid 1st for EGO I could realistically see is Milwaukee at 17.

    The Lakers will always have an advantage over other teams because they are located in the media center and because they are the most popular team brand in the league. However, there should be limits to this. When you have players under contract not playing and then sabotaging their own value to force a trade to the Lakers, that is going too far.

    Also, sometimes what appears to be a great signing doesn't turn out that way. Look at Dwight Howard with the Rockets and Chris Bosh with the Heat. Everyone was devastated when Bosh went to Miami at the last moment, but the truth is it worked out better for the Rockets not getting Bosh.

    Right, but if you want LeBron, EG is 99.99% going to be on his way to Cleveland in the form of the actual player or the pick we trade him for tomorrow.

    Leonard is the perfect fit for this team but it’s a shame he is hell bent on Lakers
