Cole Flips the Table: Warriors Were Never Built for James

Warriors head coach Cole made it clear that the team never adjusted its roster to attract James, and the idea was never even considered internally. Regarding rumors of Curry and James teaming up, Cole deemed it unrealistic. He admitted he never felt James would come to the Warriors, noting that related discussions largely originated from outside the organization. Now that James has joined Philadelphia, Cole said some fans are relieved they never acquired him and view him as an opponent. While he understands the fans' stance, Cole, as a coach, maintains a welcoming attitude toward James.
