Skip: James pretends not to care about the contract year but feels sore inside, like he is not recognized as a GOAT

Recently, Skip talked about the current situation that James will face a "contract year" in the new season in his channel "The Skip Bayless Show".

He said: "I thought LeBron might consider retirement, but no, he did not surrender to the Lakers in the media on Monday. LeBron refused directly. He just said he was not sure how many years he would play, but he emphasized, 'No contract will bother me at all'. He said that. It will not bother me at all. Because he could never surrender to the Lakers and let them get any satisfaction because he knew he was injured for it."

"But he was deeply stinging in his heart. Believe me, this incident was almost as troubling as Jordan was recognized as undisputed GOAT. That incident stinged to LeBron almost as severe as this, or, I should say, a little more serious than this. It really hurts him deeply."
