As off-court questions and speculation swirls about LeBron James' future, he prepares for an unprecedented 23rd NBA season while remaining one of the best players in the league. Pete and Darius shift their focus away from any potential drama off the court to his play on it to discuss why this season could be unique for James as his role playing next to Luka Dončić evolves, how James' own ability to be a shapeshifter and do everything on the court will matter more this season, how they envision him playing offensively, and what his defensive ask can and should be next year for the Lakers.  Support Pete here : Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lakerfilmroom Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/lakerfilmroom Pete’s YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LakerFilmRoom Pete’s Playback: https://www.playback.tv/lakerfilmroom For Feedback or Questions: lakerfilmroom@gmail.com To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
