The tweet captures LeBron James’ pragmatic response, stating,

“LeBron on the Lakers failed free agency attempts: “It takes two to tango… That’s part of the business. I’ve been in this business long enough to know that sometimes it happens, sometimes it don’t… So we don’t sit here and lie about or cry about it. We move on and Klay’s a great player. Obviously DeMar’s a great player. Valanciunas was one of those guys who ended up going to Washington, was someone that was in talks with us, but we move on to see how we continue to get better.”'”
