Why the fuk would he pass up on $60+million to play the for the vet min
TBF this is one of the things Bron put out there.

LeBron James Says He'll Do 'Whatever It Takes' to Play in NBA with Son Bronny Before Retiring​

"It's not about the money at that point," the Los Angeles Lakers star said in an interview with The Athletic




Again we know Bron changes his mind :manny:

This was when they were asking him about the Lakers head coaching search
He said "Lebron's a free agent" so basically saying he's not involved in the search since he's not really a part of the team with his pending free agency :jbhmm:
But LeBron has a player option for next year
Guess we now know he's declining that :russ:
Chris Haynes tried to follow up cause Rich shouldn't have let that slip but Rich realized he fukked up and basically told them to move on

Odds are he stays with the Lakers..... but I've been saying since that weird trade rumor popped up about GS around the deadline that was something to keep our eyes on :francis:


Yeah he's probably staying but this is another negotiation tactic so they can get the coach and players they want. Lakers wont progress till they get rid of LeBron. Magic recruiting LeBron did more damage to the Lakers than Magic contracting HIV.

This was years ago and Lebron/Rich/Bronny have all said otherwise for awhile now. Lebron had cooled off on playing with Bronny for the past 2 years

Pretty sure this was said when Bronny was a Jr in high school

You'd rather these team owners have the power huh?
I rather the Lakers do the right then & put together a TEAM like Boston, New York, Minnesota, Denver, etc has done.

Making player transactions just to appease Bron's ego isn’t making them a championship contender.

...they can...? What is stopping them from moving on from LeBron if he exercises his player option?

None of these teams need to sign him if they don't want to. Do you think the thunder or mavs or even hawks will be clearing space for LeBron James? You'd rather LeBron be stuck in a 9 year contract still on the cavs or something?

I honestly don’t care what LeBron does, never been a fan. Lakers would be smart to tell him to :camby:
