    LeBron gets paid max dollars. He's gonna have to play 32-35 minutes on average for us to dominate games. That's just the reality of it when you're making 1/3rd of the team's salary cap.

    So...

    a 49% mark from mid-range has him registering the highest effective field goal percentage on shots from outside the paint (50.4%) of his career.

    This dude seems to be indestructible. And he seems to be changing and adapting his game too.

    I wouldn't give James a statue unless he goes into HOF as a Laker

    Another triple double, bullying his way to the hoop, awesome dunk, overall excellent game after the early careless turnovers.

    Well...in today’s NBA, it’s easier to get inflated stats. It’s really no big deal tbh...but he’s still my favorite player.

    This man is playing too many minutes...35 mpg for a 35 year old is insane and kind of dumb.

    Vogel needs to have him play no more than 30 minutes, particularly against these scrub teams. I rather lose a few and have him fresh than run him to the ground like D'Antoni did with Kobe by letting him play 48 mpg on that late playoff push that let to a torn achilles.

    the only team Westbrook has not done it to is OKC. He failed in the 1st meeting.

    well, that kobe usage was next-level stuff, though. wasn't he playing over 40mpg for that stretch of 10-15 games or so?
