LeBron James Reveals His Mentality Heading Into Next Season

LeBron is ready to get revenge.

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers had themselves a difficult postseason in 2021 as they were dealing with numerous injuries and underperforming depth. Heading into next year, the Lakers are hoping to be fully healthy and with Russell Westbrook on the roster, there is no doubt that they are setting themselves up to be a powerhouse again.

There are some massive expectations for this Lakers team, and if they want to go out and get that title, they will have to defeat the Brooklyn Nets, Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix Suns, Milwaukee Bucks, and a whole host of other contenders that are starting to gain momentum.
