LeBron James Has Been Eliminated In The First Round For The First Time In His Career
Despite the current state of the lakers, there weren't many fans betting against LeBron James in Game 6.
You see, throughout history, James had never lost in the first round, and set a precedent for coming back and leading his team to victory through overwhelming odds.
But, as it would turn out, there is a first time for everything. And after a rather subpar performance in Game 6, James is officially out in Round 1 for the first time ever,
At 36-years-old, and facing against a very good team without his co-star, it's understandable that this would break James' 14-0 record in the first round.
In the past, James was always good enough and healthy enough to advance his squad past round 1. He has led plenty of mediocre teams to the Finals before.
2021 presented a number of challenges, many of them unique, and it seems it was all just too much for the King and his Lakers to handle.
The big question now is, where do they go from here? We can expect many changes to come this offseason, as Rob Pelinka re-tools the roster. But whether or not it will be enough to put them back on top remains to be seen.
