“Come on, LeBron James. You’re obviously gassed”: Skip Bayless, Magic Johnson, and Twitter React to Lakers’ ‘Shock and Awe’ Win Over Bucks 

LeBron James passed Magic Johnson for sixth on the all-time assist leaderboard but he was still elated with his performance tonight! The Lakers had a huge win vs the Bucks. Are they legitimate? Even Skip Bayless was tweeting out praises!

Has the world turned upside down? Well, it doesn’t look like it. But the Lakers are back to winning ways! And this time, their opponents were perhaps among the best teams in the league. A seal of approval for LA?

Not just yet, but the signs are pretty good. And what a game it was too! From electric dunks to assertive blocks. This game had it all. Hold your breath, because this is going to be long.

Skip Bayless, Magic Johnson, Kendrick Perkins, and others climb aboard the Lakers train

When the Lakers win the world rejoices. No? Okay, maybe only media analysts and former legends. The chatter on Twitter is booming by the minute.

And it all started with Skip Bayless buzzing about with a rather double-edged tweet. He knew the Lakers could collapse and even then he tweeted out something positive. Was he a “Negative Nancy” all along? To his chagrin, the Lakers did win despite a couple of lead changes.

Of course, LeBron looked hardly “gassed” despite it being obvious to Skip. And he went on to record 11 assists tonight.

Magic Johnson who had just moved down to no. 7 on the all-time assist leaderboard was elated about the win. Of course, he is a lifelong Laker fan.

Kendrick Perkins also chimed in. And he made fairly important points today. Most impressive win indeed.

And a little anime reference for you.

Are LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers legit?

So, the Lakers’ win was on merit. They were not handed a win. And the passing on display tonight was simply elite.

They have also picked up crucial form heading into the winter. To start off a long road trip with such an emphatic win speaks volumes.

LeBron looks to have father time in his clutches. For now.

And Anthony Davis is playing like he is among the best in the league.

Despite the Lakers’ huge win, we have to tip our hats to Giannis Antetokounmpo, who put in a monstrous performance.
