It crossed my mind that the Lakers may blow it up here in a few days if they can't get a superstar to pair with Bron and AD. They risk LeBron leaving for nothing, if they don't. With all of these "Heatles" era ties now in Utah, and with LeBron giving a shoutout to Fizdale, Stephen A Smith dropping Utah as a destination to ship LeBron to it has crossed my mind that what if... Just what if LeBron could be heading to Utah.
With the Gobert trade, The Lakers now have a pitch to other teams on AD to get a lump sum of draft picks in return for him. Westbrook can be their tank commander (lol!). I'm sure it has crossed Rob Pelinka and Jeanie Buss' mind that hey, we are running out of time, and if we don't do something quick while LeBron is ageing by the day, and Anthony Davis could lose all of his value the next time he steps on the court that we need to load up on some sort of draft capital before we find ourselves digging a DEEP hole that we can't get out of.
AD gets traded home to Chicago for a package similar to Rudy's (the Vuc trade with Patrick Williams, Coby White, Lonzo Ball, picks etc)
Or to Toronto
I also think LeBron has dealt with enough drama in LA, and wants no business of teaming with Kyrie after he did a snake move the last time they teamed up together.
Sign and trade for Ayton
Trade for LeBron
If KD goes to Phoenix next season would be one of the most exciting and most competitive NBA seasons ever
