A few days ago, Paul George expressed that he would like for LeBron James to be his mentor during the offseason. I’m sure LeBron loves knowing that so many guys are dying to work with him.
When this was relayed to LeBron, he seemed more than happy to oblige. LeBron’s hands are tied here. It’s not as if he can say, “nah, I’m good. I don’t want to work with him.” He kind of has to.
But again, this doesn’t look good for Paul George to have said this publicly. He would’ve been better served to reach out to LeBron privately.
“Pick [my brain] like Hannibal Lector?” James said jokingly. “You know me, I don’t mind it at all. I don’t mind giving guys [advice], whatever he wants to ask. Guys know I have an open door/phone policy.”
