I asked myself, if LeBron were to be traded, who could be the best fit for him? I realized it might be the Thunder with all their youth and flexibility. Whatever the Lakers would ask for, good young players or picks, the Thunder could offer it. The Lakers now would put themselves in a situation where they have flexibility moving forward and structure a post LeBron era.
