But even though Anthony Davis has created a buzz with his MVP-caliber play, what has become clear to him is even more exciting. With him playing his best, and with James defying Father Time, capable of rattling off four straight triple-double performances, as he did last month, the Lakers could be competitive. They recently won six games in a row. Perhaps there’s a chance they could even contend for another championship, after winning their first title in 10 years in the the NBA Bubble in Orlando in 2020. “Right now we’re in control of our own destiny since we’re sitting in the [sixth] seed, so we’ve just got to continue to do what we do,” Davis told FOX Sports.”[LeBron and I] definitely want to win another championship. I want to win another championship. I want a parade. I want to experience that. I know [LeBron] wants to. I know some guys on our team want to win their first one. We’re all competitive and we’re all playing for each other and just trying to play the right way for one common goal.”
