Lakers News: Dodgers Use Infamous LeBron James Quote on Post-Win IG Post

West coast is the best coast.

After winning a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Dodgers put up a caption that Los Angeles Lakers fans have become all too familiar with on their Instagram post that highlighted the victory. 

In a hilarious callback to superstar LeBron James' own former Instagram post, the Dodgers referenced a saying that fans of purple and gold will also be laughing at. 

Circulating around social media among fans to describe any joyful situation, the meme has been documented across multiple mediums, not just basketball or even sports. 

We're sure that James appreciated the reference as the four-time MVP has spent his offseason around Dodgers Stadium. 

Watching a game on his own bobblehead night a few weeks ago, James looked on as the Dodgers won the game and superstar Mookie Betts cranked two home runs as he looked on. 

It was a great moment for the James family, especially after a summer clouded with uncertainty for James' son Bronny and his own medical condition. 

Though it was nice to see James saluting another LA sports superstar, James' focus surely remains on winning it all in year 21 on the court and not on the diamond. 

After an eventful summer with roster moves aplenty, the Lakers have their sites set on a top record in the league much like their LA baseball counterparts at Chavez Ravine. 

James and recently extended Anthony Davis will have a chance to go for a second ring together for the first time since 2020. 

Winning it all in the same year as the Dodgers would be quite the accomplishment once again.

While the Dodgers remain in the hunt for another World Series in just a few months, the Lakers will wait their turn for opening night against Denver in October as well.
