They’re a team that has had new life breathed into it.LeBron James is especially excited to have Chandler on the team.“He’s huge,” James told reporters after the game. “We had a spot that needed some reassurance Best Calvin Ridley Jersey , and for us to be able to get Tyson in the fashion that we got him and to be able to implement him right away — and the impact that he’s made in three games so far? It’s great.”That’s because Chandler bailed him out, againThe Lakers built a lead as big as 15 points and held it with 1:16 to go in the third quarter.
