Although the Los Angeles Lakers have endured a dismal season, fans would witness pure greatness from LeBron James. In a closely fought contest against the Golden State Warriors, LeBron dropped 56 points and gave the Lakers a much-needed win. Although the win didn’t improve their standing in the West, it gave fans hope in the ability of LeBron James to carry the Lakers. Even at 37, they still believe that having LeBron on their squad gives them the best chance to win.
Although LeBron put on a show in LA, some believed that there were external factors that contributed to LeBron’s performance. One such person with that perspective is Skip Bayless. He regarded LeBron’s success as a result of the series of flops that the Warriors have undergone because of poor performances from Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson.

“Steph Curry is in the worst three-point shooting slump of his career, and he has plummeted to his worst three-point shooting percentage of his entire storied career,” said Bayless.
Thereafter, he called Klay Thompson a ‘disaster’ for being ineffective for the Warriors and also for walking into the tunnel prior to the end of the first half. He then added the following about both Warriors’ stars.
“He (Klay Thompson) was just a liability as was Steph in the 4th quarter when he was 1 of 4 from three,” added Bayless.
