LeBron James seemed at peace with losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves in the NBA playoffs after shockingly falling in five games.
After their blockbuster acquisition of Luka Donu010diu0107 in February, the Lakers went into the postseason with high expectations. Unfortunately, their title hopes crashed out of the opening round after running into Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves.
Speaking on the "Mind The Game" podcast with co-host Steve Nash, the Lakers star insisted that the early elimination came down to being matched against a better team.
"It's the matchups, and we ran into a damn good matchup," said James.
