LeBron James' former rival makes bold suggestion to Lakers (Image: IMAGN)
LeBron James' former rival and former NBA champion, Paul Pierce, made a bold suggestion to "fix" the LA Lakers during the latest episode of Kevin Garnett's podcast "KG Certified." Pierce suggested that the team trade one of its stars, Anthony Davis, and bring back Bronny James from the G League and allow the father-son duo to take over.
"You trade AD, then you bring Bronny up for the rest of the season, and let them cook," Pierce said on Friday. "That's what you gotta do."
Pierce justified his take by suggesting that the Lakers don't stand a chance of having a deep run this season. He further said it'd be better to let LeBron James make the most of his final years in the league by playing with his son while the young guys of the team develop alongside Bron.
