The thought of retiring has entered LeBron James’ mind, at least he wants us all to think it has.
Following the Los Angeles Lakers being swept by the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals on Monday night, James was asked what his plans are for next year. While most were expecting him to give a generic answer about getting to the NBA Finals, that isn’t the route he took.
“We’ll see, we’ll see what happens going forward,” James said. “I don’t know. I don’t know. I’ve got a lot to think about, to be honest. I’ve got a lot to think about, to be honest.

While Jokic and the Nuggets were soaking in their first NBA Finals berth, the Lakers were left to contemplate something no one could see coming.
Lakers star LeBron James, having just completed his 20th season in the NBA, told ESPN he will contemplate retirement this offseason: “I got to think about it.
LOS ANGELES – They kept coming, these Denver Nuggets. When LeBron James made shots, when Anthony Davis blocked them, when every Tristan Thompson-sized button Darvin Ham pushed seemed destined to extend this series to a fifth game.
Pack it in, finish things off in Colorado?
Nah. The only thing the Nuggets wanted to take home was a trophy.
Denver is Finals-bound, completing a sweep of the Los Angeles Lakers with a 113–111 win on Monday. The Nuggets trailed by six at the end of the first quarter, 15 at the half and LeBron James was cooking.
With every win over the Lakers, the Nuggets’ confidence grew. Denver and Nikola Jokic are on a roll, and it may be too late to stop them.
The Nuggets, behind another playoff triple-double from Nikola Jokic, are in the NBA Finals for the first time.
Following the Lakers’ season-ending 113–111 loss to the Nuggets in Monday night’s Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals, LeBron James strode to the postgame media session to answer questions about their defeat, playoff run and the season as a whole. It was his response to the final question, though, that was the most open to interpretation.
James was asked how he would evaluate the season on a personal level, and his lengthy and wide-ranging response touched on a lot of topics and emotions.
It took a long time—47 seasons in all since the ABA-NBA merger—but the Nuggets are finally headed to the NBA Finals.
Denver rallied past the Lakers to win Game 4 of the Western Conference finals by a score of 113–111 Monday evening, surviving a tremendous 40-point effort from Los Angeles forward LeBron James. The win gave the Nuggets their first conference title in a season where they finished with the West’s best record for the first time.
With their season on the line and trailing by two in the game’s final seconds, the Lakers predictably entrusted their fate to LeBron James. The Nuggets, however, had no intention of letting Los Angeles extend the series.
On the game’s final possession, James received the inbounds pass and made a beeline for the hoop with four seconds remaining. He was met by a host of defenders at the rim, with Denver locking down when it needed to the most to deny the four-time champion and secure the franchise’s first appearance in the NBA Finals.
