Today, Lakers' reporter Anthony Irvin posted a post to analyze James' future in the Lakers, believing that there are three major reasons that James will not leave the Lakers. The following are some of the contents.

When Ritchie Paul made a statement to ESPN about James' choice to execute the last year of his contract, everything seemed a little unusual this summer. Many people think it's James preparing to leave the Lakers, but nothing substantial happened afterwards. According to sources close to both sides, James never made a deal or buyout to the Lakers throughout the summer.

Rober Pelinka did not make a clear statement when talking about James. He only mentioned James when asked specific questions and used some rather vague "if" to describe James' future.

First of all, James has great dreams for his business plan after retirement. If Lakers fans lose support for him and no longer support him like Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal, etc., it will affect his plans.

Another reality is that James has almost no better choice than the Lakers in basketball. Winning the championship with a buyout base salary signing will not be the best option, so this is not an option. As mentioned above, the Lakers will not accept any trades that are unfavorable to the team, so it is also impossible to send him to the championship contenders through an unbalanced trade.

Although the roster is still needed to improve to make the Lakers a top contender, it is hard to say they haven't had a successful summer. They also maintain the necessary flexibility to make improvements if necessary.

If you are worried about the situation after this season, can the Lakers show James their plan to partner Doncic with another superstar? If James had to cut his salary sharply to a team that might be closer to the championship, why didn’t he do it directly in Los Angeles and grab another ring with his son?

Of course, with Austin Reeves likely to receive a pay raise this summer, the Lakers will face some challenges in maintaining salary flexibility, but they intend to remain as flexible as possible to have the opportunity to sign letters or Jokic. If they can achieve this, why doesn't James want to be one of them?

The last factor is the limited response from James' statement in the league. Although some teams have reportedly asked, no one is willing to completely reorganize the roster in order to get James. Speculation about James' future became a good topic of talk during the Las Vegas Summer League, but never led to any substantial action.

So if no one is willing to pay everything to get James and provide a better chance to win the championship, isn't it the best choice for James to stay in Los Angeles with his family and hope that the Lakers find a way to give him this opportunity? Ultimately, both the Lakers and James realized that they both needed each other to achieve their respective goals. James is still an excellent choice to help the Lakers start the Doncic era, and the Lakers are still the best choice for James. Therefore, both sides need to make full use of the opportunities in front of them.
