Live broadcast on February 7th, Lakers star James received an interview with Mei Ji Michael Wilbon today and talked about the Owen deal.
When asked if he was disappointed that he didn’t get Owen, James said: “I can’t say I’m not disappointed that I didn’t get such a talented player, and I have a good chemical reaction with him. I know we will have a good chemical reaction on the court, and he can help the team win the championship. In my opinion, Owen will help the Lakers win the championship.”
“But now my focus has shifted. I turned my attention back to where I should be, that is, to pay attention to the team itself and what we already have in the dressing room.”
