Dan Gilbert refuses to facilitate a Lebron opt in a trade or a Sign and trade. Limits LBJs options to teams with cap space. He may then be set on joining the Sixers if they can add another superstar to their core.

Philly trade: Fultz, Saric, Picks 10 & 26, Bayless (Expiring/make salarys work), '20 1st top 3 protected
Spurs trade: Leonard

Lebron signs with Philly 1+PO @ Max
Redick signs for full no tax payer MLE (I think around 8m)
Sign a stretch 4 to Vet min: Frye, Ilyasova, Melo (if brought out)

PG: Simmons, McConnell
SG: Covington, Redick
SF: Leonard, Anderson
PF: Lebron, Melo
C: Embiid, Holmes

I can't see the Spurs getting a much better offer for Leonard ATM.
LBJ get shooters and playmakers to help him ease into his post prime career. Philly completes the process.

IMO this teams floor is a G7 loss to Boston in the ECF if they are hit with an injury or two. Ceiling is a Ring

I think there needs to be one less pick in this trade. I'm debating between switching 26th pick to a second rounder. They could use a second or two to upgrade the 26th into a mid first round pick then to give them a cheap bench contributor.
