LeBron scored two points against Westbrook, equalized for the Lakers at 115 and eliminated Russell’s offensive foul. In other words, he ate the Wizarding Star alive, but not all of it would be happiness. James entered the free throw line and the worst karma of the NBA reappeared.
With 9.8 seconds left in the game between the Lakers and the Wizards, LeBron went on the free throw line to put Los Angeles ahead, but missed the shot and the ball barely touched the ring. As if that weren’t enough, in overtime, the clutch story would repeat itself.
