LOS ANGELES — The polite applause and the occasional piercing shout he heard at Staples Center on Monday night wasn't quite all that JaVale McGee wanted. He's won titles before, and he's been in parades, and he's partied with teammates and friends and celebrated like the world was ending – back before the world did actually end. The Lakers' title in 2020 barely had any of the gilding that makes winning one seem so sweet: "I feel like I've been deprived of all the good (expletive) that you get when you win a championship."
