LeBron James constructs another straw man to make his case for NBA MVP
When you’re an athlete at the highest level, you find motivation wherever you can.
In the case of LeBron James, that means finding slights that don’t exist.
The Los Angeles Lakers superstar talked with reporters from the NBA bubble on Monday about the looming NBA reboot and the league’s MVP race. He believes that he’s made a strong case for the award.
Lakers’ LeBron James: “As far as the MVP race, I showed what I’m capable of doing... There was a lot of conversation about, ‘LeBron can do those things in the East but if he ever came to the West what can he do?’ I heard all of that.” pic.twitter.com/yU70L3FmIz
