This is very realistic...
Right now they have 8 guys on the books (not counting player options or qualifying offers) for a total of $77,907,985.
The first thing they need to happen is Green and Gay to decline their player options. Which could be pretty easy. Green 10M and Gay 8.82M
Then they need to trade Mills (11.57) and Gasol (16.8M) taking back not much salary at all, preferably none. If they can do this they now have a cap of $49,536,556.
You sign Lebron at $35M and give a qualifying offer to Anderson (3,227,556). Their cap is now at 87,764,112.
Now you have Green and Gay being the only question marks, you can only sign one with their original player options but knowing Green I say he would take less. If he took around $5 or both Gay and Green took $3M less then they would be under the cap.
The hardest part in this whole thing is trading the Gasol and Mills salaries imo
