The Lakers lost to the Suns last night, as the Suns dominated the game from start to finish for the most part. The Sun ended the series in six and eliminated the defending champions in the first round. Anthony Davis played five minutes before going down again and Devin Booker couldn’t be stopped, scoring 47 and shooting 80% from three. For just the first time in his career, Lebron has been eliminated in the first round. Of course, after every Lebron loss, the Lebron haters came out loud and proud. Understandable, Lebron is starting to show his age for the first time and his team massively underperformed.

But if you think this hurts Lebron’s legacy, shut the hell up. Lebron went for a cool 29/9/7 with two steals and two blocks but of course, it is somehow his fault. This is the first time since 2010 that Lebron lost a playoff series that wasn’t the NBA finals. Hell, from what I heard from Jordan Fans, it’s better to lose before the finals. Lebron also happened to set another record last night.

This man is in year 18 and is 36, still putting up amazing numbers. Without Anthony Davis, Lebron was once again forced to do it all. This isn’t Cleveland or Miami Lebron, he can’t do it all like he used to. I saw one person say Steph Curry was better all-time, get the hell out of here. Lebron got the 2007 Cavs to the finals at age 22 with the second-best player being a washed-up Big Z. Curry didn’t even make the playoffs this year, levels to this people. Lebron is already ahead of Jordan in the stats, so call me crazy but losing to a two-seed in the playoffs in year 18 isn’t going to affect his legacy. He is already a top-two basketball player ever and if you don’t think that, then please stop talking basketball. I understand if you don’t like Lebron, he is as cringe as can be. But Lebron is also a top-two player ever if not the greatest ever.
