Now there is a very real concern the Los Angeles Lakers and LeBron might miss the NBA Playoffs this season by falling out of contention for the play-in spot.

That concern grew on Tuesday when LeBron James and the Lakers fell to Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks. Luka went off for 25 points while LeBron led all scorers with 26 points. After the game, James was asked about his confidence in the wake of another loss. LeBron said he ‘felt like poop’ which isn’t something anyone expected to hear come out of his mouth.

LeBron James Saying He ‘Feels Like Poop’ Right Now

“Until you bury me 12-feet under, I got a chance. That’s my confidence. At the end of the day, we gotta come in and win ball games and play better.

As long as we got more games to play, we still have a chance. I hate losing. I feel like poop right now. But tomorrow’s a new day, and I’m going to be prepared for the Clippers on Thursday.”

LeBron: "Until you bury me 12-feet under, I got a chance. That’s my confidence … as long as we got more games to play, we still have a chance … I hate losing … I feel like poop right now. But tomorrow’s a new day, and I’m going to be prepared for the Clippers on Thursday.”

Did anyone out there have ‘LeBron James said POOP in a press conference’ on their 2022 BINGO card? Didn’t think so. Nobody saw that quote coming.

We just need a light 4 game streak to build off. Even if it doesn't affect the season. Just give the fans something to cheer for.

That's why I love LeBron. That made me feel a lot better about this season, just because of the doom and gloom surrounding it. They have to somehow get rid of Russ, though. He's sabotaging the Lakers' chances every night.

LeBron James did add this at the end of his comments. It’s clearly an indication that he wants fans to know he hasn’t quit on the team but it’s almost shocking that we’ve already reached that point where his commitment could be questioned.
