名记者爆料 LeBron James 与 Lakers 总教练 Luke Walton 疑似将帅不合

目前暂居 NBA 西区第七名的 Los Angeles Lakers，在本季有了「联盟第一人」LeBron James 的加盟后速跃成为关注量最高的球队，可惜开季表现的跌跌撞撞，团队磨合仍需时间等待。而近日根据 ESPN 名记者 Brian Windhorst 透露经常在进攻期间，忽略总教练 Luke Walton 呼叫的战术，就算 LeBron James 有看到，仍会照著自己的想法打球，但对 Luke Walton 来说也无可奈何。

The scouts also have noticed that when James is running the point, he rarely looks toward the bench to receive play calls from coach Luke Walton. Even when he has seen them, the scouts say, he ignores them and runs the play he prefers. Walton has adjusted, and now when James is running the show, Walton will typically just let him call the game. This probably shouldn’t be considered a slight—it’s just James being James.

过去不少媒体就有讨论 Luke Walton 与 LeBron James 能否契合，因为两人其实仅差 5 岁，甚至同属 2003 梯次的球员，而有鉴于 LeBron James 所待的球队总会传出将帅不合的传闻，不少人也将两人的合作关系视为一大球队能否成功的关键。
