Please explain how he formed a team from scratch? Like he did in LA trading half the team for AD lol?
When he arrived at the Lakers, they were low and down, and he didn't impose a thing.LeBron didnt pull a gun on Jeanie and forced her to do anything. The Lakers tanked several years for that. It was in the franchise's best interest to make the deal, precisely because LeBron is (were) that valuable to a team.
I remember there were rumors of a Davis trade to LA during the 2018/2019 season. James and Rich Paul knew James couldnt win with that team so they colluded with Davis while he was still under contract with the Pelicans. How do you think Ball, Ingram, Hart and the other players felt knowing they were on the trade block because James didnt think they were good enough?[/quote]
Who cares? They objectively weren't good enough, and havent really accomplished anything in the NBA at that point. League is busines and its their job to stay professional even when caught up in trade rumours
