LeBron being traded after being the first pick?
Is LeBron James the only 1st pick ever that if offered a top 5 player in the NBA, the Cleveland Cavaliers wouldn't have even entertained the Idea?
With Wiggins future as a Cav in Limbo, I wonder if LeBron was the only player where that would never be considered.
First Picks back to Magic Johnson

2013-Anthony Bennett
2012-Anthony Davis
2011-Kyrie Irving
2010-John Wall
2009-Blake Griffin

Pretty sure Anthony Davis was considered untouchable when he was drafted.

Rookie LeBron was only brought in to be Ricky Davis' sidekick anyway, definitely tradeable.

James, Duncan, Joe smith, Shaq, Coleman, Robinson, Ewing, Hakeem. None of them would have been traded for a top 5 player.

Proves idiots wrong
Re: LeBron being traded after being the first pick?
Magic, Ewing, the Admiral, Coleman, Shaq, Duncan and Lebron were keepers no matter whom were offered. I believe the likes of Olajuwon, Daugherty and Webber would have been moved for a top 10~15 player.
