LeBron James is seemingly still picking up the pieces a day after his Los Angeles Lakers missed out on Kyrie Irving. After fans roasted the all-time great’s team for losing a shot at the talented guard while James himself tweeted three cryptic words in a seeming reaction, he interviewed with ESPN’s Michael Wilbon.
Now, I won’t begrudge anyone for speaking their mind, especially someone with a massive platform like James. But why did he feel the need to have an immediate public conversation about his Lakers — currently 13th in the Western Conference standings — not trading for a great player?
