LeBron James Deletes Tweet Predicting He Wouldn’t Miss Playoffs For Rest Of His Career

The Los Angeles Lakers have never achieved the level of success they did in the 2019–20 NBA season when they won the title. In the playoffs for the 2020–21 season, they were defeated by the Phoenix Suns in the opening round, and they were unable to even make the play-in round for the 2021–22 season. Star LeBron James tweeted this past April, “I can/will not miss the playoffs for my career! “, in reference to the 2021–22 campaign. This hurts so bad.

Well, that tweet was recently deleted.

LeBron James Deletes Tweet Predicting He Wouldn’t Miss Playoffs For Rest Of His Career

As their team is currently ranked in the bottom part of the Western Conference, a trend of Lake Show basketball in recent years, Lakers supporters are aware of this season’s shot.

LeBron James, the team’s MVP, seems to be aware of this depressing fact as well.

Tuesday saw LeBron James become a trending topic when an old tweet from his Twitter account was removed in which he promised the Lakers a playoff appearance this year.

From their match against the Phoenix Suns on December 19 until their game against the Dallas Mavericks on Christmas Day, the Lakers are currently on a four-game losing skid. Before they play the Orlando Magic on December 27, they have a 13-20 record for the year.

Given his performance and the injuries to James and Anthony Davis, Los Angeles went all-in on their trade for Russell Westbrook last season, but it didn’t turn out as expected.

The Lakers are once again suffering with injuries this season, particularly Davis. Davis was forced to leave the team’s game against the Denver Nuggets on December 16 due to a right foot injury. Then it was found that Davis’ right foot stress injury will keep him out indefinitely.

Prior to their matchup against the Orlando Magic on December 27, the Lakers had dropped four of their previous five games since suffering the injury.

LeBron James is averaging 27.8 points, 8.1 rebounds, 6.6 assists, and 1.1 steals through 25 games this season while shooting 49.6 percent from the field and 30.6 percent from outside the arc.

Even with their losing record heading into the new year, the Lakers still have time to make things right.
