Description

After the Lakers were eliminated Monday in Game 4 against the Nuggets, LeBron James finished his press conference with a somewhat cryptic message. "We'll see. We'll see what happens going forward. I don't know. I don't know. I've got a lot to think about to be honest," James said. "Just for me personally going forward with the game of basketball. I've got a lot to think about."Obviously that sounds like a guy who is considering retirement, and Monday he certainly played like a guy who might walk away. 48 minutes, 40 points, 15-25 shooting. He left everything on the floor, no question.In our big show, we tried not to speculate until a little there was a little more reporting. Well...Both Dave McMenamin and Chris Haynes report that LeBron really does seem to be considering retirement. First, from McMenamin, this exchange:"LeBron James to ESPN on his thought process going into the offseason:Q: When you say you got to think about stuff, what thread should we be pulling on that?A: "If I want to continue to play."Q: As in next year?A: "Yeah."Q: You would walk away?A: "I got to think about it."Then Haynes reports that "Lakers star LeBron James is uncertain if he'll be with the team when the 2023-24 NBA season starts in the fall, and retirement is under consideration, league sources tell Bleacher Report, TNT.LeBron has a lot to weigh, sources say."So... is this a real game changer? What happens if LeBron calls it quits? Is it just a shot across the bow?HOSTS: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.
