I mean, I think that might be the first time ever he was in trade talks in his career. He&#8217;s kind of seen everything, so I don&#8217;t think that affected him, it didn&#8217;t affect our team. But it was definitely strange to hear in a sense of like, it was the first time he&#8217;s ever been talked about in a trade before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<div class=\"atom twitterEmbed\">\n<div class=\"twitterEmbed__container\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1846253120617435317&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fbleacherreport.com%2Farticles%2F10139538-video-lakers-anthony-davis-talks-strange-lebron-james-to-warriors-trade-rumors&amp;sessionId=de886acb874853492e2fba7653b1b851637c0e11&amp;siteScreenName=bleacherreport&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1846253120617435317\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">In February, shortly after the trade deadline, ESPN&#8217;s\u00a0Adrian Wojnarowski and Ramona Shelburne\u00a0reported that the Warriors proposed a trade for James that would bring him to Golden State, but James and the Lakers were not &#8220;willing to explore&#8221; the deal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">The blockbuster trade would have teamed up James and his longtime rival Stephen Curry, but he ultimately preferred to stick with Davis and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">For the first time, James and Curry played together as they led Team USA to a gold medal at the Paris Olympics. James spoke highly of playing with the star he has competed against for the last decade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;It was everything and more,&#8221; James said Monday, per the Associated Press&#8217;\u00a0Greg Beacham. &#8220;I was super excited to be able to finally team up with him in a win-or-die type atmosphere. That&#8217;s what it was, being a part of the Olympics. It was everything that I dreamed of and aspired to want, to be a part of that team, along with Steph. Great memories. Something that I&#8217;ll remember from my basketball career for the rest of my life, for sure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">Though he looks back at his time with Curry fondly, James admitted that he has &#8220;no idea&#8221; if he&#8217;ll ever team up with him again, per ESPN&#8217;s\u00a0Dave McMenamin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">For now, James will focus on the season ahead for himself, Davis and the Lakers. Los Angeles finished last season 47-35 and reached the playoffs via the play-in tournament, losing to the Denver Nuggets in the first round.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"intersectionObserverRefElement\">\n<p class=\"\">James, who will be 40 in December, is hoping to continue to add to his already historic resume with another title.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adam Pantozzi\/NBAE via Getty Images It&#8217;s not often LeBron James is in the middle of trade rumors, but the Los Angeles Lakers star found himself in that&#8230;
