It’s time for another LeBron James temperature check.  While his future remains up in the air, his circumstances have changed .  He has embraced being the Lakers’ third option . The Big Three has figured things out. And the team is a contender.  It begs a question:  If he returns for another season, is he more likely to play for the Lakers now? While no one knows the answer except James, one thing is obvious. There’s a different feeling in the locker room now than there has been all season.
