Anthony Davis puts the league on alert with this statement about LeBron James

The Los Angeles Lakers have been dealing with injuries all season long, and the playoffs haven’t changed that. Anthony Davis seemed to injure his knee on a block early in the game, and then KCP had to leave the game with a quad contusion. Despite all of this, the Lakers seemed to have gained their stride back.

After the game today, Anthony Davis seemed to have put the rest of the league on notice. AD conveyed a message to the rest of the league on behalf of LeBron James. James claims that he can still notch it up another gear and elevate his game even higher.
