Commissioner Adam Silver admitted recently he does not know when or if the NBA season will return which means canceling the season is a possibility. If that happens then LeBron James lost his last chance to win a 4th NBA championship. The King will turn 36 years old in 2021 but his age is just one factor working against the Lakers superstar. In this video we break down why LeBron can't win another ring if the NBA season doesn't return. The Lakers were having a magical 2019/20 season. They were first in the West, their chemistry was on point and LeBron James was having an MVP-level season. The NBA suspended its season and early reports suggested it would definitely return. That would be a good thing for the Lakers. Anthony Davis has dealt with a shoulder issue and time off could only help LeBron but if it does not return it will be near impossible for James to have another title-winning opportunity like this one. The Lakeshow needs LeBron playing at an MVP level to be elite. They are +10.3 points per 100 possessions with him on the court and -1.4 without. That's the difference between the Milwaukee Bucks and Orlando Magic! If LeBron slips even a little bit it would be catastrophic for LA. A slight dip at age 36 is more than reasonable to assume - even if he doesn't fall off a cliff the Lakers could be in big trouble. If they want to improve the roster it will be extremely difficult. The 2020 NBA Free Agent class is average at best, the Lakers have zero cap space and a trade bringing back and elite player will be near impossible. The Lakers' trade package would include their extremely low first round pick and Kyle Kuzma. That will not bring back the caliber of player to push LA to a championship.
