Warriors not done pursuing LeBron James?
LeBron James trade rumors have been quickly shot down by the Los Angeles Lakers this season, but the Golden State Warriors have not yet given up hope of pairing James with their superstar point guard. In fact, even after being denied by both LeBron and Lakers GM Rob Pelinka this deadline, there is a sense that they will keep trying well into the summer to make the scenario a reality. “You can’t blame the Warriors for trying, and I’ll tell you this,” said ESPN’s Zach Lowe,” I don’t think the Warriors are done trying because like Steph [Curry] said, why not pick up the phone and keep on trying?”

The NBA relies on its stars more than any other sport & has leaned upon LeBron, KD & Steph for nearly a decade, still waiting for the next crop of American stars to replace them. “If they can figure it out, good luck. You got to remove them off the throne” wapo.st/3OKV29J – 10:31 AM

LeBron James, Kevin Durant & Stephen Curry each visited the East Coast in early February, so I asked these late 30-somethings how they’ve handled the responsibility of NBA superstardom for so long & continue to stubbornly go extra rounds with Father Time. wapo.st/3OKV29J – 7:15 AM

Warriors lead the Jazz 84-71 at the half.
Coincidentally, that was the final score of a game exactly 19 years and 1 month ago in this building, when the Cavs beat the Jazz 84-71. LeBron had 27 points, the Jazz’s leading scorers, Carlos Boozer and Gordan Giricek, had 12. – 10:08 PM

“Soak in every season that LeBron James has left. When James retires, we will long for the highlights he delivered nightly.”

LeBron James: !!!! Super happy and proud @RealAClifton . So 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 -via Twitter @KingJames / February 16, 2024
However, James’ agent Rich Paul set the record straight about where LeBron is with the organization, via Stephen A. Smith Show: “No, he’s committed to the Lakers,” Paul said. “Jeanie has been an incredible partner for him and us and I think it’s important for that to be understood and to be respected. Obviously, there’s ups and downs and emotions throughout the course of a season, but ultimately LeBron’s committed to the Lakers.” -via Lakers Nation / February 15, 2024
After a tough loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, Curry was asked about the reports on Wednesday suggesting that the Warriors tried to make a move for LeBron at the trade deadline. While grinning through his answer, Steph pointed out that he was surprised to see this type of information get out. “It’s always a surprise when stuff like that gets out because I am assuming every team is making calls that if every fan or fan base or media group would know about it, it would maybe normalize the conversation that happens in the front office,” Curry said, via Warriors on NBCS. “Especially around the trade deadline when you’re exploring around the league who’s available and who’s not. Obviously, a guy like Bron, you would probably call just to see. I don’t know what the depths of those conversations were, but that was a nice little surprise this morning, for sure.” -via Clutch Points / February 15, 2024
