1.LeBron James made sure the Lakers did not lose!

This was a trap game for the Lakers and everyone short of JaVale McGee, Lonzo Ball (more on him in a minute!) and LeBron James, who, for the most part, kept the ship steady until the Cleveland Cavaliers found a way to lose the game at the end.

The Los Angeles Lakers as a whole are going to have to realize that they will probably get the best shot from every team in the NBA as long as LeBron James is on the team. Cleveland played one of their best games of the season, only turning the ball over three times in the whole contest. It looked like the Cavs had a chance with a Jordan Clarkson explosion that put them up by nine.

After that, LeBron James put an end to the suspense, picking up the pace of the game and leading the Lakers to victory. He missed a few free throws down the stretch but, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope knocked down his free throws to seal the victory.

This was a great day for LeBron James from beginning to end…
