Here comes the second decision! Is James 52% likely to retire? American reporter revealed important information: He signed a big contract

Decision 2 is here! James is predicted to be retired by 52%? Meiji followed up and exposed important information, and he signed a big contract with Amazon.

"Decision Two" is coming

As the new season's preseason is in full swing, the Lakers' forward core James suddenly posted a big news on social media, writing: "Decision Two, October 7, 12 noon East China. (0:00 on October 8)"

It is obvious that James's post hinted that he would announce an important decision at that time.

Judging from the details of the preheating video released by James, the shirt James wore when he announced this time that he seemed to be exactly the same as the shirt he wore when he announced that he had "decision to join the Heat".

Plus James did not reach an early contract renewal with the Lakers during the offseason, and he returned to his free-standing contract at the end of the season for the first time in his career. He also became the first person in NBA history at the age of 41 and 23 seasons.

After James' social media showed the warm-up of "Decision Two", the outside world generally linked it to the retired tour and the last dance.

52% may retire

Due to James' huge influence and traffic, after he released the "Decision 2" warm-up, this news quickly topped the hot search list of China and the United States, and also became a hot topic in the basketball circle.

For this reason, ProphetX, the top US sports forecasting market, also released the forecast probability, pointing out that James "decided two" 52% of the possibility of announcing his retirement.

Lakers team reporter Daniel Starkand and Trevor Lane also analyzed James's dynamic on the "Lakers Nation", believing that James would be the right time to announce his retirement at this time, and there is hope to receive tribute like Kobe.

Trevor Lane admitted that he thought James would not retire quietly like Duncan, and he would most likely accept a farewell tribute in every stadium like Kobe.

Faced with such news, not only caused an uproar in social media, but also a number of active NBA players appeared in the comment section.

James Lakers teammate Vanderbilt asked directly: "What does this mean?"

Morant first replied: "NO", and then replied: "They said you are lying."

The US Records revealed important news

When the outside world generally speculated that James "decided two" was likely to announce his retirement, Brett Siegel, a reporter from the US media "ClutchPoints", gave a completely different view, believing that James was just trying to market his own program.

At the same time, an important message was revealed. James signed a big contract with Amazon not long ago to make an advance plan for his transformation after retirement. Prime membership day will start tomorrow, which is by no means accidental.

Lakers team reporter Daniel Starkand also tends to cooperate in business, because this routine is very common in the sports industry.

And this is not the first time James and his team have released a preheated video. He believes that James' "Decision Two" this time is just a psychological game for promotion.

At the same time, he pointed out that James had posted similar videos as early as July, and the next Amazon membership day is the second date of James' warm-up decision, which is all too coincidental.

It is worth mentioning that on the same day when James warmed up "Decision Two", the podcast official of "Stay Brain" released a poster, announcing the official return of the third season, and the hosts are still James and Nash.

Lakers team reporter Arash Markazi also publicly stated that he believes that James' "decision 2" is definitely not announcing his retirement.

But the new season is expected to be James' last season. Kobe announced his retirement season on November 30, 2015, so James can wait until November 8 to announce it again at the latest.

Whatever the final "decision two" is, James' public warm-up behavior once again demonstrated his huge influence.

According to ticketing website TickPick, after James released the news, the price of tickets for the Lakers' last home game against the Jazz in just a few hours has soared from the original $85 to $445, and there is still a continued upward momentum.
