LeBron James is likely to play against the New York Knicks tonight as he recovers from a sore right ankle. Los Angeles Lakers coach Frank Vogel said that LeBron was a full participant in practice yesterday, which seems to be a good indicator that his injury has recovered well after taking the past 4 games off. Before that, LeBron had missed 6 weeks due to the ankle sprain, and has already told reporters that his body will never get back to 100 percent for the rest of his career. Chris Broussard joins Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless to discuss why LeBron's return makes the Lakers the favorites in the Western Conference, but not in the NBA Finals.
