LeBron James Wants to Give 'Blueprint' to Joel Embiid, Help Complete 'The Process' with 76ers

Thirteen years after the Philadelphia 76ers entered their "Trust the Process" era, LeBron James is focused on helping the franchise fulfill their ultimate goal by winning an NBA championship.

On the latest Mind the Game episode released Friday (starts at 15:45 mark), James explained he wants to give the "blueprint" of what it takes to win at the highest level to Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey in order to help the Sixers complete "the process" this season.

Later in the episode (starts at 20:45 mark), James said Embiid's presence and a desire to help him win influenced his decision to sign with Philadelphia:

"He's done everything in our league. And the only thing he has not done — that's win a championship. And I want to try to help him get that first one. He's been the MVP of our league, has a gold medal, All-Stars, signature shoes, bunch of money, beautiful family. He has everything. He has the city on his back. It's been the process, you know, for what 10 years, 12 years or however long he's been there. But, I mean, I think it's time now that we even dig even deeper into the process, and I hope that I can be kind of that final little piece that can help him get over the hump and maybe just see it a little bit differently than he's seen it in his career, as far as the day-to-day process, the day-to-day what it takes to get there."
