My expectations for the deadline:
I expect Eric Gordon to be traded. I’d be disappointed in the Rockets if he’s not.
I want Christian Wood to be traded, but I don’t expect it.
Theis, Nwaba or Augustin for expirings/2nds would be a bonus.
John Wall would take a LeBron miracle. – 10:22 PM

On Q from @Bill Oram, LeBron talks about the trade deadline: “I’ve said this every year: If there’s an opportunity to get better, then you explore those options. … As great as the Rams were, they had and opportunity to get an elite guy like Odell, and they went out and got him.” pic.twitter.com/tOssL745IM – 5:14 PM

LeBron felt like the Brooklyn game he played with Davis and Westbrook was “a small dosage of what we could possibly see” with the Lakers. Two days later, he woke up and his left knee “was a wreck, a total wreck.” He called it “very frustrating” and for the end of the road trip. pic.twitter.com/dQzNY5NBwj – 5:05 PM

More on this storyline
According to Oakley, one of the most important things that remain on LeBron’s checklist before he hangs it up would be to win another championship. Oakley isn’t completely confident that James will be able to achieve this with the Lakers and this is exactly why the 58-year-old believes that LeBron is going to part ways with the team sooner rather than later: “You know LeBron, his legacy right now is he definitely wants to win a championship before he retires,” Oaklay claimed on SiriusXM NBA Radio. “He might leave LA to get it. I don’t know if it will be Cleveland, could be somewhere else. He left twice. He’ll leave again.” -via Clutch Points / February 2, 2022 Former NBA All-Star Charles Oakley recently offered his thoughts on what the future may hold for Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James. Oakley’s take is a harsh one for Lakers fans. He thinks James wants to win another title before he retires and may leave the Lakers to do it. -via Lakers Daily / February 1, 2022 SiriusXM NBA Radio: “He left twice… he’ll leave again.” @CharlesOakley34 tells @TheFrankIsola & @Scalabrine his thoughts on LeBron’s future -via Twitter @SiriusXMNBA / February 1, 2022
