LeBron James again dumps young players, gets his guy
Somewhere Andrew Wiggins is chucking a bad shot, and smiling.
Just as he did in Cleveland, LeBron James has traded in the future for the present. Patience, as he’s admitted, is not his thing. This time, he did give his new young teammates a season, and it was a brutal one. This time his role in the departure of said young players was more direct, since his agent Rich Paul engineered Anthony Davis’ exit from New Orleans. But just as was the case when the Cavaliers dumped Wiggins for veteran Kevin Love upon James’ arrival, the Chosen One has chosen to go for the now rather than the later.
And who can blame him.
He’s bionic, but he’s now 34, and we saw him start to break down just a bit last season, even if his numbers were exceptionally strong.
Here are the details of this deal, and the devil is in those, since two of the three first round picks shouldn’t be very high.

It’s not forever, however, even if you’d assume Davis would want to stay.
Anthony Davis, who could sign extension with the Lakers this offseason, will play out the 2019-20 season and enter free agency next year, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Why didn’t Boston get him?
Well, you knew this was coming.
Danny Ainge is the king of close calls, and somewhat questionable refusals.
The Boston Celtics refused to make Jayson Tatum available in trade talks with New Orleans, league sources say, putting the Lakers in prime position to strike the deal that teams Anthony Davis with LeBron James

Now James must deliver. The Warriors are reeling, the Rockets have holes (and may move Chris Paul) and there doesn’t seem to be another clear power in the West.
James went to Los Angeles for reasons beyond basketball.
Now maybe, with arguably the best sidekick he’s ever had (different than Dwyane Wade, with less duplication) he can get back to it.
And it means that Miami is still the only place where he wasn’t engineering personnel moves. At least not so many of them.
