i believe he used all these back stabbing excuses , mainly as an alibi, and an excuse to exit the Lakers before he ultimately got exposed for poor leadership and his sorry decision making caught up with him.
I think there is 50/50 chance Lebron is traded.
Gonna be hard to join Lebron , if he an't home . He is unpredictable, like Kyrie . I doubt Kyrie feels like Lebron is destined to remain another 3 years in LA.
he still wants the Lakers for the main reason he went there , to get the LA Hollywood money ....any other city he d would have already checked out of that hotel had they not bowed to his every whimper.
It is a tit for tat power struggle between Lebron and Buss , pushing each other to see who might give in first .....she hopes Lebron will quit and ask to be traded ( he loses face and money) , Lebron hopes she will trade him and make her a villain in the media and fans eyes. I think its a dare you between the two.
I think Lebron wants out as much as J Buss wants him gone , either wants to be the villian in any way.
