LeBron James alluded to issues going on behind the scenes and was asked to clarify that comment and he insisted it has nothing to do with the Los Angeles Lakers.

"It has nothing to do with our team," said James to Chris Haynes. "One thing about our team is we have zero lack of team chemistry and camaraderie. That's the one thing our team will always strive (for) and always be about. It's a little bit more intricate than that. I might tell you when the cameras ain't on. 

"It has nothing to do with the Lakers and our group. Our group is probably as close as ever because of the situation. Lake Show, Laker Nation, don't worry about that. It has nothing to do with the ballclub. 

In early August, James talked about how they were looking for a rhythm on offense and then alluded to the off the floor stuff. 

“It’s just some things that you can’t control that’s here, that I really don’t want to talk about, that’s off the floor,” said James.
