James has successfully helped the Lakers win a championship after joining the team. However, fans also understand that James is always a player who has changed teams four times, and he does not have the loyalty attribute of Kobe, so the sense of belonging to him in the Lakers is not that strong.
In recent seasons, the Lakers' record has also shown a significant decline, and the outside world's expectations for whether James can lead the Lakers to win another championship are not high. James himself also understands that his peak is no longer there, and it is unlikely that he will rely on himself to win the championship in the Lakers next. The Lakers' attitude towards James is also quite sensitive because they are unwilling to continue to believe in James.
Currently, Lakers reporter Buha wrote about the Lakers' handling of James and Davis and future development plans. This time, it is highly unlikely that James will continue to stay with the Lakers. Because the Lakers want to retain some existing players and assets for future rebuilding. Therefore, they cannot meet James' plan to strengthen the team and compete for the championship. Davis is also secretly competing, and he naturally knows that he is the future of the Lakers.
Once James retires, he will carry the team alone, so he does not want to overuse future assets. The awkward thing about James now is that he is different from players like Kobe who are one city in the Lakers. As a player who travels east and west, his retirement tour in the Lakers is likely to be directly cancelled.
