Blake Griffin explains why he chose Brooklyn over the Lakers
–
LeBron James with us is a perfect union. We want him to stay as long as he wants. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar played until 42 years old. The last time LeBron said he didn’t see himself playing until he was 46… So he can remain a today’s Laker at his 46, however he wants.
We are very happy to have him in Los Angeles. He knows basketball very well, he has a real competitive spirit. We’ve had a lot of fun since he’s been part of this team and in the end only one thing is missing: the supporters in the stands.
If LeBron wants to extend ten years with the Lakers, he has the blessing of management! The King will undoubtedly not make it that far, but he knows he will always have a home in the league. But there is no guarantee that he will want to retire in the Purple and Gold jersey… He could well join his son Bronny if he ever lands in the league.
As long as LeBron James is in good shape, the Lakers will be in the race for the title… We can understand Jeanie Buss’s desire to see him continue in his franchise!
