Rich Paul, LeBron James' agent and business partner, revealed that James and the Los Angeles Lakers haven't discussed a trade despite his uncertain future with the team.

LeBron is the master of offseason passive-aggressive statements to get his team to spend. This is more of the same.

Lebron James’ agent, Rich Paul, might have caught the entire league off guard. On Sunday, Paul told ESPN’s Shams Charania that James is taking his $52.6 million player option with the Lakers. However, he and his agent made it clear that they expect the Lakers to build a competitive roster, or he might look elsewhere.
