The next segment is brought to you by Tommy John, where comfort is the new power move. And the Lakers pulled a power move on LeBron. On March 31st, the Lakers defeated the Cavaliers to secure LeBron James his record-breaking 1,220-night win. It was the same night Luka passed 15,000 points. Rui passed 5,000 points. J.J. Redick reached 100 wins. According to Dave McMenamin, Lakers GM Rob Pelinka gave the game ball to Redick over anybody else. And LeBron felt Pelinka's priority was yet another example of the Lakers taking him for granted. On other notes, He has had a great relationship with J.J. Redick. One thing, the Lakers got right. The Lakers' approach and how they show interest in retaining him and their plan for any discount will be a factor.
LeBron James, here's LeBron James before Cleveland and with LeBron. Seven years before he got there, there was 219 and 223, a 40% win rate. The seven years with him, they won 63% of their games. LeBron James, Miami, before he arrived, there was 149 and 179, a 45% win rate. His four years there, there was 224 and 88, a 72% win rate. Cleveland, when he returned... They were 97-215.
