This season, the Lakers are far from completing their goals and expectations, the integration of Wei Shao has always been a difficult problem to solve, the injury hidden dangers of the thick eyebrow brother are endless, the high-profile big three have a false name, and only the 37-year-old man is struggling to support. There is not much time left for James to make history, set new records, and add glory.
In the current situation, the Lakers want to continue to compete for the championship this season, which seems to be an unattainable goal. With the thick eyebrow brother retiring, the strength of the Lakers' overall lineup has deteriorated, and some gossip has begun to spread. For example, will James usher in the fourth decision of his career?
A few days ago, James was interviewed by the US media The Athletic, and he was asked why he chose to leave the Cavaliers in 2018. James replied, "Life is about constant change." You'll have a mission and you'll have more goals to set. Do you know? When I won in Cleveland, I didn't think I was going anywhere anymore. Because then I felt complete. Later, I realized that I still wanted to get more and wanted to reach another level. I want to reach another level, so I still have unfinished goals. ”
Subsequently, the bold reporter asked whether it was possible to stage a decision four, joining the Cavaliers for the third time in his career. James left himself a flight of steps, and he said the door had never been closed. 'I'm not saying I'm going to come back and play, I don't know, I don't know what the future holds, I don't even know when I'm going to be a free agent.
James's remarks undoubtedly caused uneasiness in the Lakers management. Lakers information media SSR retweeted James's interview, bluntly saying, "One of James's feet has stepped out of the Lakers." ”
Another Lakers reporter, Harrison Faigen, also commented, "James's Lakers era is coming to an end." Now, it's just a question of 'when', not 'whether'. ”
Apparently, the Lakers media was somewhat disappointed and desperate that James might leave. The rumors that have been mentioned this season, the Cavaliers' good record and future are more proof that James has the motivation to leave the Lakers. Indeed, all kinds of news show that James's past behavior and media remarks are indeed imaginative.
However, Jason Lloyd, an interview reporter for The Athletic, said that the Cavaliers are currently struggling to free up James' salary space, and they may not be willing to break up the current roster and free up $40 million to exchange for James's glory for a year or two.
Finally, James also hinted very clearly at the whole league. "I will spend my last season with my son. Where brownies are, I will be. As long as I can play with my son for a year, I am willing to do anything. Money is not the point in this matter. "Receiving such a hint, maybe there will be many teams in the league that will be willing to sign brownies for the sake of box office and influence."
Although James is still in good shape, we have to admit that the era of the championship competition that belongs to him is coming to an end. No matter what his choice is in the end, James' game is watched and cherished.
