  • The Los Angeles Lakers are on a hot streak and look to continue their success heading into the playoffs with a healthy LeBron James and Anthony Davis. This raises the question of if this season is a title or bust for the purple and gold. Nick Wright does not believe the Lakers roster is enough for a Finals or bust season, then dives into why they should aim to face the Denver Nuggets in Round 1 over the Western Conference Semifinals or Finals.

    There are only 4 titles or bust. Bucks, Celtics, Nuggets, Suns (based purely on how all in they went on that roster). Anyone else who even makes it to the conference finals is happy just to have made it there.

      LeBron James is 39 years old the idea they are not title or bust is weird
      Any team with LeBron is title or bust this year and every year until he stops playing at all star level and then it doesnt matter anymore

    100% right Nick. Lebron fresh is the best chance at beating the nuggets. But EVEN MORE THEN THAT, AD Being fresh is key. Nuggets will be fresh too, but nobody on that team is 40. I take Lebron any night, if he’s healthy and full of energy 🤷‍♂️

    Nick protecting his LeBronny poo 🥹 Didn’t he complain about this type of argument being used for Brock Purdy, giving all of the credit without ever assigning blame. Nick, I thought the Lakers were clearly better than OKC and Minnesota. You picked them to get the conference finals, so are a lot of media members. Sounds like people expect them there, sounds like it would be a bust if they didn’t get there by your own credentials
