The Sixers compete for LeBron James on The Bachelor
By Dan Volpone
Week 4
Once again, the first date is a one-on-one. LeBron takes San Antonio to the library, where each player checks out a non-fiction book of their choice. After, LeBron and the Spurs find a court nearby and practice their layups. This is such an exciting day, Kawhi Leonard shares. LeBron gives San Antonio a rose.
The next date is a group date. Half of the teams compete to see who can come up with the best cryptic tweet about free agency, with bonus points for using the Arthur’s fist meme. Social media guru Joel “The Journey” Embiid puts the Sixers on his back, and LeBron gives Philly the group date rose.
The final group date with the rest of the teams is a Trainwreck watch party. Teams watch the movie and compliment Lebron’s acting. You’re almost as funny as Bill Hader and way funnier than Amy Schumer, Brandon Ingram tells him. LeBron gives the group date rose to the Lakers for owning Hollywood.
During the cocktail party, things get crazy when the Celtics’ ex-star Isaiah Thomas shows up and begs them to take him back. But the Celtics refuse and decide to stay on the show. Later, when Jason Smith continues to be a problem, Carmelo Anthony tells him Don’t do that. I’m not the one.
At the rose ceremony, Lebron says goodbye to Milwaukee and Minnesota.
Remaining teams: Boston, Cleveland, Golden State, Houston, LA Lakers, Miami, New Orleans, New York, Oklahoma City, Philadelphia, San Antonio, Toronto, Washington
