LeBron James Reveals ‘Locked in’ Mentality After Loss in Game 3 vs Heat

LeBron James has reveals his locked in mentality ahead of Game 4 against the Miami Heat. The Los Angeles Lakers are looking very good going into game 4. It is obvious that they are the most talented team on the court. However, that does not mean they are unbeatable. Anthony Davis and LeBron has been doing their best to keep the Lakers in the game. So far, it has worked pretty well. But can it continue?

Well, from the sounds of it, yes. LeBron might be starting to use his inner-Kobe Bryant in order to ensure a victory from the Lakers. He has talked about a regret that he has had about Kobe. As well all know, Kobe passed away in a helicopter crash back in January. Take a look at what LeBron said.

“Of course, you think there’s going to be time for us to get together and I understand that there are regrets in life, but I definitely wish I had that moment with him,” James told Yahoo Sports. “I do remember when I decided to come here, he sent me a text right away and said, ‘Welcome, brother. Welcome to the family.’ That was a special moment because at the time, Laker faithful wasn’t [fully in on me]. A lot of people were saying, ‘Well, we might not want LeBron at this point in his career,’ and, ‘Is he right? Is he going to get us back [to the Finals]?’ So to hear from him and get his stamp of approval, it meant a lot. I don’t ever question myself, but when it’s coming from Kobe, it definitely meant a lot.”

But it sounds like LeBron is still ready to fight for a title. He recently came out with his mentality going into game 4 against the Heat.

“Until the series is completed, I kind of stay on edge, stay locked in on the job at hand,” James said Monday after having some time to think about their loss in game 3. “Obviously, no one wants to ever lose. You hate that feeling, especially when you know you didn’t play your best, and I definitely wasn’t at my best [Sunday] night from an individual standpoint. So I take that responsibility, and I take that with a lot of passion and understanding of how I can be much better in the following game.”

James definitely knows what it takes to be successful. What do you think about what he had to say?
