LeBron James will aim to win a championship with the Lakers this season, but that’s not the only thing he’s looking for.

LeBron James has appeared in every NBA Finals for almost a decade, and he’ll be held to those same lofty expectations in his first season with the Los Angeles Lakers, who haven’t even seen the playoffs since the 2012-13 season. No pressure, right, LeBron?

James has already said that, like every season, his goal this year is to win a championship, but on Monday at Lakers media day, he clarified those comments, saying he won’t let a championship determine whether or not his first season in Los Angeles was a success.
