Watch: LeBron James Sends Message With Emphatic 2-Handed Dunk Over Brook Lopez

The Los Angeles Lakers played the Milwaukee Bucks at Staples Center, and it was a potential NBA Finals preview. It was a really great game, and LeBron did his thing as usual. The king of basketball helped his Lakers defeat the best team in the Eastern Conference. In one moment, LeBron pulled out an incredible two-handed dunk over Brook Lopez and it was brilliant.

This was LeBron’s way of delivering a bold message. Brook Lopez sure got it.

Both the Lakers and Bucks have yet to unleash their full potential. Players save their best for last. If LeBron and his teammates meet the Bucks in the finals, we’d witness the best raw power.

LeBron had a dunk for the win

The teams traded shots on their way to a 48-48 halftime tie. However, the Lakers took over the control and had a 39-28 advantage in the third quarter. Then, they pushed the lead up to 11. The Bucks got in the game in the fourth quarter and cut the deficit down to four. This wasn’t enough for the team to shut down King James and his teammates.

Although Giannis Antetokounmpo is the MVP favorite at this point, LeBron dominated the game with his 37 points, seven assists, and eight rebounds.

Lakers superstar Anthony Davis wasn’t far behind. He finished the game with 30 points and scored 10 of these in the fourth quarter. LeBron needed some help from Davis and the rest of the guys, and he got it.

Giannis wasn’t as efficient as he used to be. He scored 32 points on 10-of-21 shooting. Giannis made only one of his six 3-point attempts, and that is pretty far from the 5-of-8 battle in the first game between the teams.

The superstar didn’t get enough help from his teammates. Donte DiVincenzo scored 17 points for the non-Giannis Bucks. Khris Middleton was 5-of-19 from the field. If Milwaukee plans to defeat the Lakers in June, they will have to work on the supporting pieces. Both teams will have plenty of time to prepare for the potential rematch. Was this win enough for NBA fans to change their mind regarding the NBA MVP?
