In the summer of 2023, LeBron James will once again be a free agent. However, the major media have begun to make a frenzy for "Where James Goes Season Four", which is not, there have been many rumors recently that James is likely to return to Cleveland as a free agent.
However, the well-known American journalist Chalani revealed on the show that after communicating with James' agent, he was convinced that James would not leave Los Angeles. And if you know the back and forth of James' several transfers, you can understand why everyone knows james won't leave Los Angeles.
First of all, let's review the career of the old Zhan - since he was elected to the Cavaliers in 2003, James's Cavaliers 1.0 career has not found a suitable helper. In the second round of the 2010 playoffs, facing the powerful Big Three, James, who was plagued by torn elbow ligaments, was unable to support himself. The so-called strong reinforcement Jamison was even more swallowed alive by Garnett. The team also lost 2-4. Then came the decision, which shocked the world. James joined the warm South Coast for the championship and put on the Heat jersey.
In the heat's four years, James led the team to the finals four times, won the championship twice, and won the regular season and finals double MVP for two consecutive years. It looks infinitely beautiful. But after losing to the Spurs in the 14-year Finals, Old Zhan chose to return to Cleveland to fulfill the promise of the year.
The Cavaliers 2.0 period is not long or short, it is also four years. In these four years, James still led the team to reach the Finals consecutively, as if he were a ticket to the Finals. In the 2016 Finals, in a desperate situation of 1-3, the Golden State Warriors, the strongest team in history, won the first championship in team history. After losing to the Warriors in the 18-year Finals, James chose to join the Lakers and fight for the Purple and Gold Army so far.
James' first transfer wasn't hard to understand, as if no one blamed Durant for leaving the Thunder. The Cavaliers' poor idea of team building, the team's best year on paper was the 2009-10 season, but the so-called strong signings were only O'Neal in the penultimate year of his career and Antoine Jamison, who many people have lost track of who it is. Wasted LeBron's first peak. So his departure is not difficult to understand. It's just that the Heat's choice is too bad.
And his second transfer, the contradiction is the crazy squeeze of the Heat boss, the huge consumption of James in the Heat period, in order to make up for the team's lineup deformity, James had to increase weight to go inside the hand-to-hand combat. And the layoff of Mike Miller in 2014 for economic reasons made LeBron even more incomprehensible. It also prompted LeBron's second transfer.
The third transfer is still the team management's action can not meet LeBron. The Cavaliers lost Irving in 2017-18, and management was unable to quell the locker room farce brought by Thomas Jr. And he refused to use the draft picks of high picks to strengthen the lineup. So after leading the Cavaliers to the Finals for the fourth consecutive time, James is also considered to be benevolent.
The reason for choosing the Lakers, I believe that many fans of Lao Zhan can understand that one is to meet Lao Zhan's wish to play in a big city, and the other is to start returning to his family and have more time to spend with his wife and children. And if you think about it, if you were a super-rich, would you choose to live in Shanghai or Tieling? The former is Los Angeles, the latter is Cleveland. Coupled with the renewal of the contract with the Lakers, James can get more money and more exposure, which is also very helpful for his career after retiring. So think about it with your heels, and you know, good Los Angeles doesn't stay, back to Cleveland.
What's more, people want to face the tree and skin, how is it also a superstar of the top 3 level in history. I didn't believe that he would be so unproductive.
