LeBron James Reveals Which Team He Wants Lakers To Face In NBA Finals originally appeared on NESN . Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here . LeBron James has played numerous games against the Boston Celtics during his 23-year NBA career, including during the playoffs.
James has faced the Celtics in seven postseason series, winning five. James no longer plays in the Eastern Conference, however, so he hasn't played Boston in the playoffs in a while. His last postseason series against them was in 2018, and he's never faced them in the NBA Finals.
That could change this year, however. The Celtics are favored to win the East, while James' Los Angeles Lakers have a chance to win the West if Luka Doncic returns from his hamstring strain soon. If the Lakers do make the Finals, James wants to face Boston.
