Kendrick Perkins says Rich Paul was upset over LeBron James losing influence within the Lakers to Luka Doncic, signaling a major power shift.

If James gets moved, the Dallas Mavericks would likely be one of his top landing spots. When discussing the situation once again, Paul recently shared what he's looking for in the future. He later added that it’s up to the media to decide how to interpret his comments, and that his focus is on enjoying the summer for himself and James.

Paul argued that the coverage on LeBron James' retirement has gone beyond reasonable curiosity and turned into an unhealthy obsession.
