LeBron James sat out because he won't miss the Finals banner unveiling - Shannon | NBA | UNDISPUTED

The Los Angeles Lakers were able to get a thrilling 101-99 overtime win over the New York Knicks last night but without LeBron James. The 36-year-old forward sat out once again despite previous reports saying that he had his spring back from a stiff ankle. The reigning champs now have three regular season games against the Houston Rockets, Indiana Pacers, and New Orleans Pelicans before postseason play. Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe discuss what LeBron sitting out another game meant.
