This is different, at least right now. Him signing with the Lakers as their roster is now has zero shot of even getting to another finals. Houston, Philly, or Boston were the only teams he could have joined via trade or signing that would have had a better shot at beating the Warriors then the Cavs.
When Chris Paul stayed in Houston and Paul George in OKC, and since LeBron opted out his only choice would have been Philly if he was chasing rings.

Going to L.A. with their current roster seems more like his retirement tour while he focuses on other things than basketball.
