Where is James most likely to go in a midseason trade? Reporters and salary experts agree: Knicks

October 17th Recently, Yahoo Sports reporter Kevin O 'Connor and ESPN salary expert Bobby Marks talked about the whereabouts of Lakers forward James on the former's podcast "The Kevin O 'Connor Show".

O 'Connor: "If LeBron applies to leave the team, where is his most likely next destination?"

Marks: "If it is a trade between two teams, you will always think of the Knicks. They do have a matching contract, whether it is Towns' maximum salary contract or OG (Ah) Nunobi) or Bridges' contract."

O 'Connor: "I think I would also say the Knicks, definitely. I would say the Knicks are the most likely No. 1 team, and the rest are the other teams, both in terms of salary balance and lineup suitability. Makes sense. And it's also very meaningful to LeBron, that's Madison Garden Arena, he always said it was his favorite venue. If he leads them to a championship they haven't had in decades, he'll be a savior. So that was attractive to him as well. Can you imagine? LeBron James traded to Knicks mid-season? That would paralyze the entire social media. "

Bobby: "I'm telling you, that would be great for media material. "

O 'Connor: "If Shams dropped that bomb, the sensation could be greater than last year's Doncic trade. "
