Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James and former Laker Kyle Kuzma are both sitting at home during the 2022 NBA Playoffs, with the Lakers going through one of the most disappointing seasons in history and Kuzma's Washington Wizards failing to reach the postseason after Bradley Beal's injury. However, this doesn't mean they're tuning out of the playoffs. In fact, they're watching very closely and offering up plenty of thoughts on the action already.

Who would like to see a playoff broadcast with LeBron and Kuz firing off their takes? It would probably be quite entertaining to watch, especially if LeBron was drinking some of his favorite wine or his Lobos tequila. James is a basketball genius, so it would be quite informative as well, and there would be a good rapport with Kuzma given they won a championship together with the Lakers.

For now, though, we'll have to just take what we can get with these Twitter takes. It certainly makes watching these playoffs more fun. We already saw some great games in the play-in tournament and the first weekend of the playoffs, and things will only get more intense as we get closer to the NBA Finals.
