Today, the famous journalist Shams Charania is a guest on the podcast "The Pat McAfee Show".

Talking about Lakers forward James missing the start of the season due to injury, Shams said: "At the same time, he sits there and observes his team. I think going back to the day when LeBron exercised the player option, Rich Paul told me that LeBron James just wanted a realistic opportunity to compete for the championship. We will see how this team looks to perform. Seeing the performance of this team, I can only repeat A new interpretation of Rich Paul's statement to me on June 30. The message they conveyed is almost a request for help, that is, we hope that this team can have a strong lineup so that we can have a chance to win the championship. Then we will wait and see. I won't panic based on one game, I believe that the Lakers fans are panic, but let's watch how this team performs in the next few weeks."
