The Kansas City Chiefs have delivered history as Patrick Mahomes wrapped it with finesse. With the triumph, the Chiefs secured back-to-back titles and clinched their third championship under Mahomes’ skill set. In a dazzling display, Mahomes led the Chiefs on a game-winning drive in overtime, culminating in a touchdown pass to Mecole Hardman to clinch the 2024 Super Bowl. With that, numerous narratives swirl around Mahomes and the ongoing GOAT conversation. However, a noteworthy parallel emerges involving LeBron James and putting the city of Angels in the winning light.

This is the second time the Chiefs won the Super Bowl over the San Francisco 49ers. The first one came in 2020, signifying Mahomes’ inaugural ring with the franchise. Interestingly, in that same year, the City of Los Angeles flourished in the sporting world, witnessing not only the Los Angeles Dodgers securing victory in the MLB season but also the Los Angeles Lakers triumphantly claiming the bubble championship.

In a season shortened by the impact of COVID-19 on both leagues, the Los Angeles Dodgers dominated with a 43–17 record, ultimately securing their first World Series Championship since 1988. Their triumphant journey led them to a 4-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays, marking their seventh overall title.

Similarly, the Los Angeles Lakers, with a playoff berth for the first time since the 2012–13 season, finished the regular season with a remarkable 52-19 record. Their path to glory culminated in a Finals showdown against the Miami Heat, where they emerged victorious with a 4-2 series win, claiming their first NBA championship in a decade. The victory secured the franchise’s 17th title overall, tying them with the Boston Celtics for the most in history.

Can LeBron James and the Lakers win it all this year?

As the NBA trade deadline becomes history, it signals a clear focus for teams moving forward. Even with the festive All-Star Game approaching, the competition is heating up, with several teams wanting the championship. However, the Los Angeles Lakers, at the moment, find themselves plummeting in the playoff race.

Struggling with inconsistency throughout this season, the Lakers are just managing to edge the playoff-qualifying teams. In contrast to the previous year, where the Lakers ignited post-deadline, making a deep playoff run, the hopes for a similar surge this season are dwindling, given their relatively untouched roster.

However, if they solely depend upon the two vets, their current chances of winning the chip are mathematically low.
