Many wonder what could keep Lebron James in maintaining the high demands of competing in the NBA at the level he is performing. The routines this man will require at 39 years old involve great sacrifices, but the option of obtaining a championship ring seems remote due to the incompetence of Los Angeles Lakers.
The voices criticizing the management of Los Angeles Lakers have become increasingly numerous and intense since they brought in Lebron James. The title achieved during the pandemic season is meager and does not reflect the impressive level of play of one of the greatest players in history. Now, at 39 years old and having fulfilled the dream of playing alongside his son, Bronny, it seems difficult for him to find motivations to stay in a team with no real chance of success.
No matter how well Anthony Davis competes or how eager JJ Redick is to fit the pieces together as best as possible, the truth is that Los Angeles Lakers do not have the necessary elements to compete for the championship. This is what Shams Charania denounces in Hoopshype, mentioning that the only thing that could make Lebron James stay in the competition for another season is playing with his son, Bryce. Nonetheless, the most likely scenario is that this could be his last season in the NBA.
