LeBron James Fires Up Lakers Nation With Hype Message Before Game vs Clippers
NBA players have hit the basketball court for the first time since March 10. It’s time for real basketball, and the NBA bubble in Orlando is on fire. Players of 22 teams will try to win the championship this season and the Lakers vs Clippers game is probably the most anticipating game right now.
This is a rather important game for players on both teams, and Lakers superstar knows it really well. LeBron took to his Instagram account to share an amazing photo and from what we can see, he won’t leave the court without a title. His first opponent is the No. 2 seed in the West.
LeBron is ready for the Lakers vs Clippers challenge
Montrezl Harrell and Lou Williams won’t join the Clippers, and Patrick Beverley is listed as questionable. When it comes to the Lakers, pretty much everyone is playing. Anthony Davis got poked in the eye in the second scrimmage game, and the team will have to see if he feels well. Davis expects to play and that sort of gives everyone a ray of hope.
Kawhi Leonard and Paul George will confront LeBron and Davis. Analysts believe that the superstars won’t play big minutes in this game. LeBron had 15 minutes in the first scrimmage and 25 in the second. He was at the sideline for the third scrimmage game. The Lakers will have seven more seeding games, and Frank Vogel will probably play wise with LeBron’s minutes. Maybe he will keep him to the 25-minute mark. Maybe LeBron will go into the 30’s as he gets ready for the playoff opener next month? Kawhi played 30 minutes in the game against the Sacramento Kings and hit just 6 of 22 FG’s, and 3 of 13 3’s.
A lot of things are at stake right now, and both Vogel and Doc Rivers will have to be careful. It’s an important game but the biggest games won’t be played until September.
The Lakers own the top spot in the conference, and the Clippers come right after them. Who will leave the game as a winner? LeBron is ready to win. The same applies to his rival.
