Rich Paul on how long LeBron James has left in his playing career: I think body-wise, five years
Rich Paul on how long LeBron James has left in his playing career: I think body-wise, five years. Understanding how to play the game mind-wise? Forever. Mind-wise as it pertains to frustration, to endure just like missing time with his family, with his wife… They’ve been unbelievable, they’ve been an unbelievable support system. At some point it’s gotta be about them. I think, from that perspective, maybe two to three years, from that perspective.

Exclusive: Kyrie Irving made it clear he’s very happy in Dallas. But when asked about reuniting with LeBron James last season, he didn’t hold back.
“It’s hard to think of the what-ifs, the allure, the thoughts of it. Yeah, it was fun to think about it.”

Jalen Brunson just became the 5th player in NBA playoff history, joining Westbrook, LeBron, Kareem & Giannis, to average a 40 point double-double over any 4 game stretch.
Truly historic tear he’s been on this past week. – 11:51 PM

More on this storyline
The day after James made that comment, Irving was dealt to the Mavericks in a blockbuster deal, a situation that’s seemingly working out for the 32-year-old guard this season, but not so much for the 39-year-old face of the league, who has been unable to claw his way back to the Finals in four years. “I know I can speak for myself that I’m grateful someone took a chance on me,” Irving told FOX Sports. “Dallas welcomed me with open arms. For me, it wasn’t time to think about the ‘what ifs.’ It was time for me to put my best foot forward. That’s what I did. It’s hard to think of the ‘what ifs,’ the allure, the thoughts of it.” -via FoxSports.com / May 3, 2024
Kyrie Irving had just routed the LA Clippers by 30 points. His Dallas Mavericks were one win away from the Western Conference semifinals. But the question made him momentarily ponder an alternate reality. Did he seriously consider reuniting with LeBron James in this very building last season? “Everything was considered,” Irving told FOX Sports after Game 5 on Wednesday in Los Angeles, flashing a smile. James is currently watching the playoffs from his couch after his Los Angeles Lakers were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets in their first-round playoff series Monday. Surely, he could have used Irving’s help. “He’s a great friend of mine, a great brother of mine,” Irving told FOX Sports. “We obviously played together [in Cleveland]. Everybody knows our history. But there were so many different factors in between. When it comes to business decisions, you have to ask the GMs, the presidents why certain things didn’t work out.” -via FoxSports.com / May 3, 2024
