After a failed season with the Lakers, we imagine that LeBron James will want changes within the roster. New players on the bench? A new leader? We know the ideal scenario of the King, who dreams of playing with a star. Unfortunately for him, that’s not likely to happen.
Forfeited for a few games, LeBron James could not help the Lakers save their season. A very difficult campaign for the native of Akron, who is currently losing everything. The summer should do him good, in order to return to 100%, but above all to take his revenge on the Western conference. Playable ? Everything will depend on the offseason and the decisions to come in Los Angeles.
We imagine that if he had the choice, the King would very much like to bring change to the Lakers roster. Unsurprisingly, Russell Westbrook is not the best possible fit at the point guard, while the bench has too often been irregular. Betting on so many veterans? Not a good decision from Rob Pelinka, who will have to roll up his sleeves quickly.
LeBron James dreams of playing with a superstar
Regardless of the Lakers’ results, business continues for LeBron, who recently filmed an episode of his show The Shop, which aired on Uninterrupted. The opportunity to discuss a lot of topics, including the player with whom he dreams of playing in the current NBA. Many can already guess who it is…
Steph Curry, for sure. It is with him that I want to play in the current NBA. (…) I love everything about this guy. You better start defending him the moment he gets out of his car. As soon as he arrives at the room, you have to start stopping him. Or even as soon as he gets out of bed (laughs).
Lots of respect for both men over the years, so this answer from LeBron won’t shock anyone. But is it feasible? We can think that this association will remain in the realm of fantasy. The King has already reiterated that he wants to end his career at the Lakers, or spend a final season elsewhere to play with his son, Bronny.
For Curry? No departure from Golden State is imaginable. The leader is too attached to his team, and don’t count on the Dubs to part with him one day. We have to believe that the two stars will have to hope to meet at the All-Star Game every year to play together, and maybe it’s better that way.
LeBron James and Steph Curry on the same team? A dream for many fans, but seeing their clashes remains a real pleasure. Whatever happens, we are seeing respect, and it’s still nice to see in the current NBA.
