Anonymous executive: James misses the Cavaliers chance to finish the game easily

On July 19, according to Hoops Wire, an anonymous NBA executive believes that James missed the perfect opportunity to end his career perfectly. He bluntly stated that James should have given up the Lakers' $50 million contract and returned to his hometown of Cleveland to form a strong lineup with Mitchell, Garland, Mobley and others.

"I won't persuade people to refuse 50 million, but James is a billionaire and has a good off-court income," the executive said. "If I were a member of his team, I would recommend giving up the Lakers' option to join the Cavaliers. This is a wise choice." In his opinion, the Cavaliers' existing team and James are enough to "easily reach the finals" and write the third legend for James' career in the Cavaliers' jersey.

40-year-old James has played for the Lakers since 2018. It seems that he is likely to stay in the team for a lifetime, but not everyone recognizes that the Lakers are the best choice to increase their chances of winning the championship. "Think about how terrible it would be in Cleveland? James partnered with Mitchell, Mobley, Allen and Garland to enter the finals easily, and the ending in his hometown would be a fairy tale ending," the executive said bluntly, "I think he made a mistake."
