On February 14, according to the latest news from the American media, before the last transfer trade deadline, the Warriors had taken the initiative to offer the Lakers to trade James, and Dream Green played an important role in it, but was rejected by the Lakers female owner Jeanie Buss.
In the previous game between the Lakers and the Celtics, James and Thick Eyebrows were absent due to injury, and the Lakers beat the Celtics by a big margin. A reporter reported that James is the Lakers' top trade target,
After the loss in Atlanta, James put an hourglass emoji on his X account, which may be one of the reasons for this current confusion. However, James' agent, Rich Paul, later came forward to clarify, saying that James never requested a trade, and the Lakers did not have any idea of trading James.
But within 24 hours of the trade deadline, the Warriors tried to convince the Lakers and James to consider a trade to pair him with longtime rival Curry, but it didn't work out, according to the latest revelations from ESPN's Woj.
It is reported that under the "instigation" of Warriors star Dream Green, Warriors owner Joe Lacob took the initiative to contact Lakers female owner Jeanie Buss to ask if James' public expression of frustration was explained as the start of the trade.
According to sources, Jeanie Buss replied to Lacob that the Lakers have no intention of trading James, but he needs to understand James' mental state from Rich Paul. Ultimately, on the eve of the trade deadline, Rich Paul told Warriors owner Lacob and Warriors general manager Dunleavy Jr. that James had no interest in a trade and that he wanted to stay with the Lakers. In fact, when Dunleavy Jr. contacted Pelinka, the general manager of the Lakers, he got the same answer.
It is reported that earlier on Wednesday, Dream Green sent a text message to his agent, Rich Paul, asking him to help convince James to join the Warriors, but it ended up being an 11-hour futile effort.
In this regard, netizens have said, "One dares to talk, one dares to report"
"The boss of the Warriors wants to make money, the top 2 athletes in traffic must not make crazy money"
"What do you make Curry fans and James fans think"
"If it succeeds, how will these two camps meet in the future?"
"If nothing else, just 40,000 points of ticket revenue that day made a lot of money"
"Green: That's right, after all, both of them are my fathers"
"James' business value may be greater than Curry's. ”
"The key is that the Warriors currently don't have the thighs that James wants to hug, the two old men Lao Zhan have no confidence at all, and the thick eyebrows are still young and only on the verge of the play-offs, because Lao Zhan knows that he is almost 40, and he will be dragging his feet there."
