NBA Insider Reveals Private LeBron James Thoughts on Lakers Rumors

Latest Lakers rumors involve LeBron James and Klay Thompson. One of LeBron’s teammates spoke about it privately, and ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith gave us some first-hand info.

NBA fans believe that the Los Angeles Lakers will land another great star in 2019, and Klay Thompson is one of the players to join the team next summer. But, how will LeBron James react to this?

Most of the speculation is based on Thompson’s future with the Golden State Warriors, because Kevin Durant will also hit free agency.

Thompson is the right player to turn the Lakers into contenders, and he is the perfect addition to King James. But, Smith talked to one of LeBron’s teammates, and the Lakers believes that Thompson is not the right fit for their squad. I had one of LeBron’s team-mates just text me saying ‘Klay wouldn’t work in L.A.’ Had another one of my boys try to dissect why that wouldn’t be the case,” Smith said.

“The belief is very, very clear. Klay Thompson moves without the ball, LeBron James is asking you to basically be a spot-up shooter because he’s the one dribbling the ball all the damn time. Let me commend the LeBron and the Lakers for this much. Thus far this season, if there is one thing I have seen vast improvement in with the Los Angeles Lakers is their movement of the basketball, making the extra pass,” he said.

“Watching them move the basketball to get shots was very impressive. Now, I think they missed too many of them because they lost but the movement of the basketball is something I appreciate because that’s not something you see enough of. I am saying to you if we have any questions about whether or not Klay would work with LeBron, is it because of LeBron rather than because of Klay?”

Well, he made a few good points here. Let’s wait until next summer, and see what happens with the Lakers.
