Before the NBA was shut down due to the coronavirus outbreak, LeBron James, in his second season with the team, had the Los Angeles Lakers in a good position to make a serious run at the franchise's 17th NBA title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bringing an NBA championship back to LA would only further LeBron James' legacy, a legacy that already includes three NBA titles, two with the Miami Heat and one with the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Lakers haven't won a title since Kobe Bryant<\/a> led LA to back-to-back crowns in 2009 and 2010. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following Kobe's tragic death on January 26, LeBron James spoke on how he wanted to continue Bryant's legacy with the Lakers. That didn't sit well with former NBA star Stephon Marbury, who recently called out James in a podcast interview. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

LeBron James and Stephon Marbury were teammates on Team USA in 2004<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
