LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers had quite a weekend, which started with a win on Friday night over the NBA-best Milwaukee Bucks and then was capped off with an equally big win over the Clippers on Sunday in what was technically an away game from the Lakers but felt very much like a home game.
If you watched the game, you saw how much it meant to LeBron to get the win on the Clippers’ floor, as he came up big in the final minutes and heard chants of “MVP! MVP! MVP!” before ending his day with 28 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds.
One person who wasn’t impressed with LeBron’s performance was Clippers guard Patrick Beverley, who said there are no challenges to stopping LeBron James.

The game film shows a different story, as the Clippers had a tough time keeping LeBron in check for most of the game, but especially when it mattered most. Beverley tried his best to annoy LeBron during the game but it didn’t work.
Fans had jokes about Beverley:
