Was last night another instance of Lebron activating "playoff mode" ala 2019?

If you recall, Lebron activated playoff mode on February 20, 2019 leading LAbron nation in to a sense of false hope that he was about to lead his team to a post season run. However, after he activated this mode the Laker's record was 6-10 in the games he played in and he missed the playoffs entirely while also giving us this gem..

Was Lebron getting eliminated in the first round with his awful 29 point performance on 26 shots (while also giving us another embarrassing example of his terrible defense - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_L_Xm_fSs0&ab_channel=BLAIRBOYZ) another instance of him activating playoff mode? Did he activate it and not declare it publicly? He even gave us another all-time quote.

He needed Anthony Davis to take the lead that is why. That's why they won last year but also because they didn't face a top 1 or 2 seed either.

They would've faced a top 2 seed if Kawhi didn't choke
