On media day, the 40-year-old made it clear that he\u2019s as invested in the Lakers<\/a> as he has ever been and hopes to help the team capture another championship.<\/p>\n \u201cThe thing that still pushes me is the fact that the love of the game is still high,\u201d James said, via The LA Times.<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cThe love of the process is even higher. So that\u2019s what continues to push me to play this game. I mean, it\u2019s really that simple. Me training and working on my body and trying to get my body as close to 100% as possible every year, it\u2019s something that\u2019s like \u2014- it\u2019s a beautiful thing for me. Just continue to challenge to see how well I can push myself to play the game at a high level, recover at a high level, be able to sleep better, mentally prepare, try to stay sharp throughout the course of a long season.<\/p>\n And just the roller coaster of an NBA<\/a> season, that\u2019s all like, gratifying to me, no matter the good, the bad, the ugly. I love that process. \u2026 So much that goes into it, more than just picking up a basketball and shooting at the rim.\u201d<\/p>\n There were murmurs that James was unhappy with the Lakers<\/a> for not offering him a contract extension this offseason. However, the veteran star was nothing but supportive of the franchise, the coaching staff and the roster on Monday.<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tSai Mohan<\/a> covers the NBA for Heavy.com.
