Former Golden State Warriors big man Marreese Speights took a shot at Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James for getting extensive praise for winning a championship after so many losses in the NBA Finals.
Later, Los Angeles Clippers star Montrezl Harrell responded to the drama with a mysterious message.
It’s no secret that the Lakers and Clippers were anticipated to clash in the postseason.
Instead, the Clippers got humiliated by the Denver Nuggets in the second round of the playoffs. The Nuggets overcame the Clippers’ 3-1 lead to take the series and advance to the Western Conference Finals.
However, the Lakers demolished the Nuggets in five games.
James, 35, became the first player in NBA history to win a Finals MVP with three different franchises. He averaged 29.8 points, 11.8 rebounds and 8.5 assists per contest in the 2020 NBA Finals.
Hopefully, the Clippers and Lakers can resume their rivalry next season.
