Skip: James is dissatisfied with the Lakers not giving him a new contract. This surprised and confused me

Recently, Skip talked about James in his podcast "The Skip Bayless Show".

He said: "At present, there is an article on ESPN about LeBron James and his future with the Lakers. It is very fascinating and in some ways. If you haven't read it, be sure to check it out because this article is very well written and has many interesting details, some of which I didn't know before. The authors of the article are Ramona Shelburn and Brian Wendhorst, both of whom are very respected journalists I have worked with at ESPN in the past, and I have great respect for them."

"My biggest gain is that there is a situation I really didn't know at all before: LeBron James and his team - Ritchie Paul, Maverick Carter, and especially LeBron himself, are very dissatisfied with the Lakers because the team did not provide him with a copy before he decided to execute the player options. One to two years contract extension. "

"I was shocked and confused by this because I didn't understand it at all. I mean, LeBron James is almost 41 years old and will soon enter his 23rd season in the NBA. The Lakers did not offer him an extra year or two contract, and I was not surprised at all, even if it was just a year, because he was signing one year now. He often hints that maybe this is the last season, maybe not; maybe it's time to consider retirement, maybe not. Just repeat, play with the media and play with the Lakers. Just like Aaron Rodgers' last years with the Packers, the Packers eventually said, 'You know? The trouble you bring is more valuable than you, goodbye.' And James' choice is to 'Meet the Lakers again next year'.' Famous reporter: The Lakers will not provide James with contract after the new season
