    yeah, though wood smacked him at the end of the dallas game, and it was tatum in boston. i don't know why the refs swallow their whistles on lebron in crunch time this year. it almost seems purposeful at this point.

    Did he suddenly fall out of it for one game? Or was what you think you spotted a usual bit of in game energy conservation for a 38 year old player with over 23 season’s actual total of games wear on him? That would have to be a general state of his condition at this point of the season noticed by like no one? Honestly asking for clarification?

    I think 43 minutes is a good sign

    weird to see, but really not too surprising since he doesn't drive to the hoop as much as he used to and instead settles for jumpers

    Yeah maybe he was disinterested at times and/or he has spent too much energy lately ... If I'm the only one who noticed it , it's not a pb for him

    I don't know ... seems like he still drives a heck of a lot even now, just doesn't attempt to dunk nearly as much. I'm always impressed with his super fine touch (usually) at speed and from all the crazy angles he gets there, on his layups.

    Also his left hand finish is really money. I was shocked to see him miss one of those last night, that’s how automatic that finish has become to me.

    Yes, and the fine spin and english from both hands depending where he is in relation to the hoop. Really excellent. The anti-Russ in that regard (Usually). Which is a shame because what Russ lacks in touch with his hands he counters with his great explosiveness to still get there and get the shots up off any foot, either hand, at any point in his stride. That's the remaining most superstar part of his game, along with his still great passing when there's not too much mustard, or a brain fart or just a rocket that's 5 feet over the recipient's head. Had one of those last night at least that I recall.

    :rock: :eek:

    Idk..Lebron has 445 shot attempts in the paint with 290 3 pt attempts

    Luka has 368 shot attempts in the paint and 361 3 pt attempts.

    Yet Lebron has 255 FTA attempts, and Luka has 515? James gets fouled a lot on his jumpers too. That s*** is out of whack.

    No, something's definitely wrong here. The numbers are completely out of whack.
