The Los Angeles Lakers already had much to contemplate after the team's
Western Conference Finals sweep (4-0) to the Denver Nuggets, but LeBron James
hinting at retirement was an interesting curveball.
在西區總冠賽被金塊橫掃之後，湖人隊有很多事情得要好好想想，但是LBJ暗示他想退休
這想法是個有趣的話題。
Few around the league expect him to shut it down with two years left on his
contract at roughly $97.6 million, but James has the means to walk away from
the game if so motivated.
聯盟裡面沒有多少人預期他會在合約還有兩年，價值約9760萬鎂的狀況下就退休，但是
若是LBJ真的很想退休的話，他是有方式可以離開的。
"He'll suit up next year," one Western Conference executive said. "He just
changed the conversation. Now we're not talking about a sweep; we're talking
about LeBron and retirement. He loves to control the narrative."
一個西區高管說：「他明年會繼續打的啦~~他只是想改變話題而已，你看現在大家就沒
在討論他們被橫掃這件事，大家都在講LBJ跟他要不要退休了，他很愛帶風向。」
Other NBA sources suggested James was getting an early start on his leverage
campaign on the Lakers' front office, attempting to influence GM Rob Pelinka
to chase free agent Kyrie Irving, who is still expected by many to re-sign
with the Dallas Mavericks.
其他聯盟裡面的消息來源則是覺得LBJ嘗試在提高自己的優勢來施壓湖人制服組，企圖想
影響佩總，要他去搶KI，而KI目前許多人認為會跟小牛續簽。
Was it Machiavellian design, a man caught up in the moment's emotion or an
earnest possibility that James might retire?
到底這是個心理戰術，是因為當時的情緒導致的說法，還是LBJ真有可能要退休呢？
"Give it a week," another executive said. "Let's see if he's saying the same
thing."
另外一個高管說：「再過一個星期吧~~我們就來看他會不會講同樣的話。」
