## Resource

Jason teams with Steve Kim, Dre Baldwin, and Jay Skapinac pondering what the future holds for LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Oklahoma City Thunder swept L.A., ending the season for the Lakers. Should the Lakers attempt to re-sign LeBron, or does LeBron want to stay? Also, are the deflated ticket prices for the game last night an indication that Lakers fans have washed their hands of the Chosen One? Steve and Dre offer their takes on LSU head coach Lane Kiffin’s controversial comments in a magazine article about deciding factors in departing Ole Miss. Shemeka Michelle joins, analyzing the New York Post photo of Dianni Russini and her husband kissing while holding their youngsters. Finishing strong, Jason and Steve break down Skip Bayless’ obvious plea to ESPN to be brought back to "First Take." ​​Today's Sponsors: PreBorn PreBorn has helped rescue more than 400,000 babies, and every single day, they continue that work by offering mothers something powerful and life-changing: an ultrasound.
