why would you give up an already superstar for a maybe superstar? i personally think james will be the next kobe but i know i wouldnt trade a superstar for him. it would be just flat out dumb. if you already have an all star why trade for a maybe all star. it is too big of a risk. what if lebron gets a career ending injury before he becomes great? then you would have traded a all star for nobody. it is just too big of a risk
