What's happening with Los Angeles Lakers
teams.ie Editorial TeamThe Los Angeles Lakers are staging a remarkable playoff run with 41-year-old LeBron James defying Father Time to lead the charge, having already taken a commanding series lead over the Houston Rockets with dominant performances that include clutch overtime heroics and explosive scoring nights of 28-29 points. James has proven doubters wrong by shouldering the primary offensive load for Los Angeles rather than playing a supporting role, and the Lakers now prepare to complete a sweep in Houston on Sunday as they advance toward a Western Conference semi-final showdown with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran superstar's postseason resurgence has become the defining story of the Lakers' unexpected campaign, with James single-handedly keeping his team alive through injuries and proving he remains a force despite his age.
