ESPN (DR) / TNT (DR)
The Lakers suffered a very heavy defeat last night against Denver, led by an absolutely unstoppable Nikola Jokic in attack.
However, it’s hard to be really confident about them when you see their difficulties in winning against the teams at the top of the table.
Unfortunately, it didn’t stop there for them as the Californians took a real beating tonight against the Nuggets (127-102).
Not necessarily successful in this match, LeBron (17 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists at 7/17 shooting) could not do anything against the carnage signed Denver and more particularly Nikola Jokic .
LeBron mocked after being dominated by Niko Jokic
As a result, the Chosen One has been the subject of much mockery on social media, with one post on X drawing particular attention to it:
@NBAMemes : LeBron spends $1.5 million a year on his body, all to be one win and thirteen losses away from a big guy like Nikola Jokic 🤔
As we know, the Joker doesn’t have the most athletic body in the league.
On the other hand, that doesn’t stop him from rolling around the league for months, he who has won three MVP titles in four years.
Of course, this speech did not please some Internet users who are fans of the Laker and who immediately came to his defense:
@eatmorebrocklee : Jokic won’t be able to play in 20 years
@algorithmsayshi : Lol it’s to maintain your body after your NBA career. Once you hit puberty you’ll understand.
Nikola Jokic will likely be the face of the league in the first few years following LeBron James’ retirement, whether we like it or not. Their on-court confrontations illustrate that perfectly…
