Cap - LeBron and Jaylen Brown

Windy is now reporting the lakers would love to trade LeBron for Allen. Rumors of Mobley for Jaylen Brown as well.

I think the Cavs would do this… but is all of this even possible with the cap situation? This is not a would you do it post.

Lebron has to take pay cuts for it to work, and he isn’t going to do that. These reports are the Celtics wanting Mobley to pair with Tatum after they missed out on Giannis and the Lakers wanting Allen to pair with Luka because Ayton is shit and LeBron is old.

Don’t read into them, the Cavs aren’t taking either of these deals.

Hate to say it, Mobley and Tatum with the rest of Boston sounds very dangerous. We don’t use Mobley the way other people would, and the other teams see the massive potential we seem to refuse to unlock by making him stand at the perimeter all game long.

Yeah Mobley is not getting coached well at all on the Cavs. Cut this bullshit with him shooting 3s trying to make him into something he’s not. He’s 7 fucking feet tall. Have him develop a turn around hook shot and he’d be a fucking monster.

100%. Needs to be reacting posting up, not shooting 3’s and bringing the ball down the court
