LeBron James And The Lakers Are Ready To Face Off Against The Denver Nuggets In The Western Conference Finals
LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers started the season 2-10. Since then, the Lakers have come a long way as they gear up for playing Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals.
Considering the Lakers were the seventh seed in the West, they are the massive underdogs vs. the Nuggets, who finished as the first seed. Ahead of the thrilling matchup, James had a message for his teammates.
“As hard as were thought level two was, it’s gonna be even harder in this round. That doesn’t take away anything from Golden State because I know, I’ve had my battle switch that franchise, so I know how hard it is. But as you continue to go up and up into the numbers, level three is just a difficult challenge. Both teams are one step away from having an opportunity to play for what they started in the beginning of the year, and that’s the Larry O’Brien trophy. So it becomes very challenging.”
LeBron James will be heading to the 12th Conference Finals of his NBA career. Despite that, James never makes the mistake of underestimating his opponents. That’s one of the biggest reasons why he has a 10-1 record in the Conference Finals.
Will LeBron be able to carry the Lakers past the Nuggets to the NBA Finals? We will find out in a matter of a few games.
