With the first round of the playoffs in full force, the Los Angeles Lakers locked horns with the Phoenix Suns in Game 3. Both teams entered this match with a different mindset but the same purpose. While the Suns wanted to win this game to regain their lead, the Lakers, who knotted the series at 1-1 in Game 2, looked to maintain that momentum and win. And it seems like LeBron James is planning to have fun with it while doing it.

The first loss had every Lakers supporter worried, but their efficiency on both ends of the floor in Game 2 gave them a big sigh of relief. The Lakers were still alive and running for the championship.
