LABron James Discussion: Triple Triple Doubles

Unreal game from Lebron. Bully ball combined with the passing and mid range shots sealed the deal

 

A freaking wizard at the basket with his repertoire and touch. Yet can still sky and jam it down at 38.

 

Masterful game from LeBron.
Dude looked like he was 25 tonight.

 

guy's 38 with nearly 20 years in the NBA, countless playoff runs, and a couple olympic appearances and is still playing like a top 10 player most nights

incredible

 

Trusting his in between game makes him unstoppable . A lot of bad performances in the clutch cause he mainly "Hardenized" his game in these moments , I've been saying this for 5 seasons but the midrange game is the solution to the bad spacing

 

You’re spot on. I mean good space is wherever you can find space and hit the shot. That’s why I’ve never been down on Russ taking a midrange, if he can hit them it is good spacing.

I like Lebron at the midrange and I like him receiving the ball at the elbow. What are you gonna do with him there?

 

lebron handling out top instead of setting up in the middle of the defense is such a waste. so much more you can do from inside the defense, imo. especially a passer like him.

 

this season...
Lakers with AD: 11-11
Lakers without AD: 11-14

 

still my favorite player

 

I think you have it backwards

 

He's going to need a maintenance day sooner or later.

I'd say sit him against SAS.

He played 36 last game. Averaging 36? It isn't terrible, but we need to be careful.

 

Might even be better to sit him against the Clippers since that appears to be an auto loss regardless if he plays or doesn't play. The Spurs game should be approached as a must win. They have Poetll back and I can just see him killing us on the boards. If James misses that game I wouldn't be surprised if it's a loss.

 

2nd half:
20/8/4 on 7-11 FG w/ 2 blocks and 0 turnovers
+31

 

Not bad for an old man

 

just looked up how many playoff games he's played

266 games. most in NBA history and 3+ seasons worth of games

so he's basically played close to 24 seasons and is still able to do this

 

It's unbelievable what he has been doing. Shocking really.

I get baffled how easy he gets to the paint this year. Coaching deserves a ton of credit but his ability to still outrun or outpower anyone is unreal.

It's absolutely the season it's pleasing me the most to watch him as a Laker.
Maybe it has something to do with being fired as a GM.

 

Magic Johnson used to lead the league in turnovers. It's not a stat you can look at in a vacuum.
