NBA enters decisive straight

LeBron James made Lakers history in the NBA by eliminating the Warriors in the Western Conference Semifinals; know the mark reached by the ‘King’ and details of the next phase

LeBron James left its mark with the Los Angeles Lakers in the playoffs of NBA. In addition to the team having eliminated the Golden State Warriors in Game 6, the ‘King’ achieved a great feat among the many already conquered in his path in the sport: he became the fourth player with the most rebounds in playoffs in the history of the league (2,509).

Ahead of the four-time champion, there are only (from 1st to 3rd place): Bill Russell (4.104), Wilt Chamberlain (3,913) and Tim Duncan (2,859). In addition, LeBron became the athlete who won the most playoff series in the entire history of the NBA, with 41 in total. The current season is the 20th played by the veteran in his career.

Thus, the final of the Western Conference is already defined: the Lakers will face the denver nuggets in Nikola Jokic (which eliminated the phoenix suns in six matches). The first game of the series between the teams is scheduled for next Tuesday, the 16th. Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers still decide, through Game 7, who will duel with the miami heat.
