LeBron James arrived to the arena five hours early for Lakers massive Game 6.

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers have a chance to send the Memphis Grizzlies home on Friday night. The Lakers and the Grizzlies have been involved in a grueling opening-round series. However, James is more than ready for another chance to send the Grizzlies home early. According to those at the arena, the Lakers star arrived to the arena today five hours early. James has been seen getting shots up in preparation for the big game.

The series started with the teams splitting victories in Memphis. Then after some famous comments made by Dillon Brooks, the Lakers took the next three games. However, Game 5 was all Grizzlies from beginning to end. James was not happy with his performance in Game 5. Including his post-game comments where "The King" vowed to come back with a stronger performance in Game 6. Now the time has come for James to answer his own challenge. However, it seems like he doesn't need any more motivation.

LeBron James Ready For Crucial Game 6

A big topic of discussion today has been James' legacy with the Lakers. According to Stephen A. Smith, a loss tonight will end any championship run for James with the Lakers. Everyone knows the time is ticking for James to win another NBA title. However, the Lakers haven't looked like a team to go the distance all season. But anything can happen in this year's post-season. As the Miami Heat have already eliminated the top team in the Eastern Conference. A Lakers win tonight would eliminate the second-best team in the Western Conference.

Only two series remind in the first round. Lakers-Grizzlies and Warriors-Kings are the final first matchups looking for a second-round prize. The winner of those two matchups will meet in the second round. However, no one is positive about who will be the victor in each series. Do you think LeBron James will end the Grizzlies season tonight? If not tonight, can the Lakers win one more on the road in Memphis? Let us know what you think in the comment section.
