Anthony Davis's Revenge!

So we all know how the Lakers are in the playoffs, and the Grizzlies were at one point until they got beat. The Lakers have had a good season, and came and beat the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies have had their shine, their moments. Now it was time for the Lakers to shine.
The Memphis Grizzlies have had a good season so far, and Ja Morant has gotten hurt through his games, but he has stayed strong through the whole thing. If you know Jaren Jackson Junior he dunked on Anthony Davis before the playoffs. Ja Morant has also dunked on people before the playoffs, and he also finally dunked on Lebron in the playoffs. Jaren Jackson Jr dunked on Anthony Davis before the playoffs, and he got pretty famous for it too because people could never dunk on Anthony Davis because of how tall he was.

Jaren Jackson Junior is a 23 year old standing at 6’10, and plays power forward/center. He also plays for the Memphis Grizzlies. Anthony Davis is a 30 year old standing at 6 '10. He plays power forward/center too. He also plays for the Los Angeles Lakers. Both teams have had a really good season. They have had amazing dunks, threes, and good moves. It might sound like Anthony Davis could get dunked on pretty easily since he is the same height or little high or low, but he is a good post player so he rarely gets dunked on by other players.
A few weeks ago the Lakers and the Grizzlies faced each other in the playoffs. In the 3rd quarter game 6 Anthony Davis was thrown a lob in the air, and came down onto Jaren Jackson Junior. The crowd was cheering mostly for Lebron James, but when Anthony Davis caught the lob and slammed it down into the hoop, the crowd went wild. They were jumping up and down, jumping onto each other, and screaming. Even the Lakers bench went crazy for Anthony.

They have all had a good season, but now it's time for the Lakers to move on to the next playoff which are the Warriors. That is going to be a crazy one because when they were both young they were kind of enemies, and would get in eachothers faces. Do you think the Lakers are going to win against the Warriors? We will have to see what will happen next in the playoffs with the Lakers.
