LeBron James has taken a shot at the Memphis Grizzlies through a cryptic Instagram post.

After eliminating the Grizzlies in six games in the 2023 playoffs, James used his social media platform to celebrate the victory in a unique way.

Despite trash talk from Dillon Brooks, James played great basketball in the series and led his team to four big victories.

His rebounding average of 11.2 is the second-highest playoff average of his career. The Memphis Grizzlies talked a lot during the series against the LA Lakers, yet couldn't back it up.

Despite having a home-court advantage in the first round, the Grizzlies couldn't win more than two games. The Lakers had a lot more experience, which turned out to be one of the deciding factors.

LeBron and his squad moved on to the second round and will face the winner of the series between the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors.

James' Instagram post came shortly after the Lakers took care of business and eliminated the Grizzlies. He didn't want to talk about Memphis during the series because he knew that anything could happen.

The Grizzlies managed to reach the Western Conference semifinals last season, but couldn't replicate their success this year.

Memphis has a great young roster, but they couldn't overcome the Lakers' experience. The Lakers have now moved one step closer to their goal of winning the championship.

LeBron James' Instagram post rubs salt into the Grizzlies' wound, but he refused to respond to Dillon Brooks' provocative comments during the series.

Instead, he let his game talk, which turned out to be the right thing to do. James played like a true champion and led his team to victory.

Photo: Khabib Nurmagomedov / Instagram Khabib Nurmagomedov , one of the greatest fighters in UFC history, has faced many tough opponents. But when it comes to punching power, he says no one hit harder than Justin Gaethje . The two fought at UFC 254 on October 24, 2020. It was Khabib’s last fight before retiring. During the bout, Gaethje landed heavy punches and kicks that Khabib admitted were painful. “He hit like a truck,” Khabib said on Mike Tyson ’s Hotboxin' podcast. “His left hook, right hook, uppercut—they all hurt.

He explained he chose the move out of respect for Gaethje’s parents, who were watching. “I didn’t want to break his arm in front of his parents,” Khabib said. “So I put him to sleep instead. That’s better.” D...
