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.
在西区总冠赛被金块横扫之后，湖人队有很多事情得要好好想想，但是LBJ暗示他想退休
这想法是个有趣的话题。
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.
联盟里面没有多少人预期他会在合约还有两年，价值约9760万镁的状况下就退休，但是
若是LBJ真的很想退休的话，他是有方式可以离开的。
"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."
一个西区高管说：“他明年会继续打的啦~~他只是想改变话题而已，你看现在大家就没
在讨论他们被横扫这件事，大家都在讲LBJ跟他要不要退休了，他很爱带风向。”
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.
其他联盟里面的消息来源则是觉得LBJ尝试在提高自己的优势来施压湖人制服组，企图想
影响佩总，要他去抢KI，而KI目前许多人认为会跟小牛续签。
Was it Machiavellian design, a man caught up in the moment's emotion or an
earnest possibility that James might retire?
到底这是个心理战术，是因为当时的情绪导致的说法，还是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."
另外一个高管说：“再过一个星期吧~~我们就来看他会不会讲同样的话。”
