The marquee matchup on Thursday night in the NBA is between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors. The Lakers are currently the 3rd seed in the West following consecutive losses for Denver, while the Warriors are the 5th seed, but are only 0.5 games ahead of the 8th seed.
Considering the circumstances, it is as massive as a regular season game can get. On top of that, all the stars on both sides are set to play, making it an electrifying watch for fans of the game. And based on what he shared on social media, LeBron James is as ready as someone can get for this game.
The King posted on Instagram presumably on his way to the arena, singing along to a song called H.I.M. by Eladio Carrion, with the caption, “I’m. H.I.M.”
The message couldn’t be any clearer and it will be one that Warriors fans will hate to see. LeBron James hasn’t had a statistically massive game since he returned from injury and this would be the ideal matchup for him to go off in.

The Lakers are 3-3 in 6 games since LeBron made his return. The superstar has averaged 18.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 7.0 assists in those games, well below his averages. Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves have carried the scoring load, but that could change now.
The acquistion of Luka has breathed new life into the tail end of LeBron’s career. With the West as competitive as it is, the Lakers and James have an excellent chance of making it all the way to the NBA Finals. A statement win against the Warriors would be an incredible momentum boost, and it seems like the King is ready for the moment.
VIDEO: Some Dude Just Dropped The Cold Hard Truth On Why All Of These NFL Prospects Are “Dating White Women”
Unless this is your first day in America, then you know race relations in this country dominate just everything, and that includes NBA and NFL drafts
During the most recent NFL Draft in Detroit, social media was buzzing as athletes showed up to the red carpet event with their girlfriends and family. Many of the incoming NFL rookies were African-American and were spotted with white women, which has become the usual theme for years.
The same thing happens with the NBA Draft.
This year, the discourse on the NFL Draft and NBA Draft has gotten even louder as African-American women openly pondered why so many of the players never have a partner that is the same race as them.
One guy on TikTok decided to answer that question by revealing that the vast majority of his division-1 friends in college or headed to the league are dating or married to white women and explained why.
He stated that some of them had told him that their white girlfriend looked up to Taylor Swift while their girlfriend looked up to Megan The Stallion. He then states the guy asks how many white women he has seen doing the Megan Thee Stallion challenge as opposed to Black women.
He then dove into another story of a friend who relayed that his Black girlfriend started to request money from him as soon as she found out about his NIL money. She wanted her hair and nails done. He then added that the Black women would be upset if they went to places like Chipotle, and she demanded steak houses.
