The Lakers Have Reportedly Not Discussed Any Trades Or A Buyout Regarding LeBron James, Which Means The King Is Spending His 23rd Year In Purple And Gold
Listen, the best part about today's news is that all the haters (of which there are many) are going to be unable to sleep knowing that LeBron is staying a Laker. Luka's in the best shape of his life, the Lakers finally got a center, and Bronny is looking like his father's prime in the Summer League. Get Bradley Beal and this team is destined for a parade:
I can smell the tears of Portnoy and Gaz from their million dollar mansions in Nantucket from here. The truth of the matter is that LeBron wants to be a Laker, and any team, from the Celtics down to the measly Wizards would give an arm and a leg for LeBron to play for their franchise. When you have the last few years of the best player in the history of the sport, you want those eyes and you get the added bonus that he still plays like an All-NBA player going into his 23rd season.
I think I'd legitimately put my life on the line that the Lakers wouldn't get rid of him, because it doesn't make any sense. He wants to be in the bright lights of LA, and bring another championship to the franchise to finally put an end to any MJ/LeBron comparisons that the detractors and losers could have. Rich Paul, one of the greatest minds of our generation hit it on the nail:
You need LeBron, he's in your dreams, your nightmares, and the daily discussion at your office water cooler. Look at these dorks on the Internet:
I haven't locked in too much to this nonsense, but from what I understand this all stems from an anonymous Twitter account showing an iMessage conversation with "A DeeGee" telling you to "stay locked in":

If you're going to try and convince me that A DeeGee has a source that Shams wouldn't, and this isn't just a silly attempt at engagement bait between a couple college kids fucking around over iMessage to stir the pot, then I've got some ice to sell you as Portnoy would say:
Some things never change.
