EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — LeBron James realizes the size of the challenge he accepted when he joined the Los Angeles Lakers. After eight consecutive NBA Finals appearances, he knows his new team isn't a true contender with Golden State and the NBA's elite just yet. "My decision was based solely on my family and the Lakers," James said. There's going to be wins and losses, but what you control is how you prepare every day. "We've got a long way to go to get to Golden State," James said.
