Some observers feel that playing with a young Los Angeles Lakers team will test the patience of LeBron James, who has led teams to eight straight NBA Finals. LeBron seems to suggest that he has plenty of a patience left.
LeBron’s Lakers are 2-5 and have a long way to go to turn things around this season, and he knows it. He was asked after the team’s 124-120 loss at Minnesota on Monday night what it would look like when his patience runs out. He said you don’t want to be around him when that happens.

Even if James can blow up in a big way when his patience runs out, the point seems to be that he has a lot more patience than others. He knows from his experiences in Miami and Cleveland how tough it is to begin a season with new personnel and get on the same page. He also knows how far away from competing with the top teams in the West the Lakers are.
Once he starts sending out the social media memes and subtweets though, you know his patience is wearing.
