Count Anthony Davis among the Lakers players who have yet to forget about last season’s savage barb from the Nuggets following their NBA championship parade in June.
After sweeping L.A. during the Western Conference finals, Denver went on to topple the Heat in six games for the NBA finals. The Nuggets went on to hold a raucous championship celebration three days after Game 6, where team broadcaster Vic Lombardi introduced coach Mike Malone as the “Lakers’ daddy“ to a hot crowd roaring in approval.
While many laughed off the viral moment, Davis, still feeling the sting of the West finals, said Monday during the Lakers' media day that neither he nor LeBron James have moved past the jab and plan to use it as fuel for this coming campaign.
