LeBron James has played on several teams throughout the years.
He even played on the same team twice. Might his time in Los Angeles already be coming to an end? ESPN’s Brian Windhorst had a telling critique of LeBron’s trajectory. As Windhorst explained, from Cleveland to Miami to Los Angeles, LeBron has always worn his teams out, and he consistently leaves them without any draft picks or assets.
Simply put Windhorst thinks LeBron is a team builder, but ultimately a team destroyer.
“LeBron’s career operates in four-year increments. He wears his team out. I call it organizational fatigue,” Windhorst said. “It happened the first time in Cleveland. They ran out of draft picks, they had a bunch of guys in their mid-30s. Shaq close to the finish line, Antawn Jamison. He goes to Miami, four years, great run, they run out of draft picks. In his last game, three guys retired after the game. He goes to Cleveland, four years, great run. They run out of draft picks. They got old guys. Here we are in L.A., fourth year. The oldest team we’ve seen in NBA history, they’re out of draft picks, they’re exhausted.”
If anyone knows about LeBron, it’s Brian Windhorst. The dude literally made a career out of following LeBron.
This definitely is not the narrative LeBron wants to hear.
