LABron James Discussion: 21st Season - Setting New Standards

for a professional athlete to NOT workout for 10 days .... I'm sure that's hard. It's such a part of who they are. Has to mess with them mentally when they are feeling fine, and then they are isolated on top of that.

And there is only so much film you can watch. I would have loved for him to have taken the opportunity to look at team issues on film and to see how he could return and make everyone better. He wasn't gone long, but sounds like he spend more time being frustrated than making the most of the opportunity away.

 

The actual Covid particulates are smaller than any mask people are wearing. It can go right through. You would have to be wearing a Hazmat style full head covering mask with the filtration cylinders on the sides to filter it out. Just the facts and science- not the narrative.

 

don't want to talk covid in this thread. feel free to PM me if you want to discuss the topic

 

all mental. If he has time to think about it, his balls shrink.

If he just does it, his physical tools take over before his mental game can sabotage him

too harsh?



Lebron, please stick to spot of shooting and layups. Otherwise it's off to the G League for you.

Very interesting stats. Obviously he needs the ball to be a good distributor, but if he truly turns the ball over to Russ for that, this shows where his strengths are lying currently. On the move cutting and catch and shoot basically.

 

yeah, passes the eye test. It’s how we lose leads.

Lebron needs to play more, sitting out games doesn't help you get into a groove.

 

Guys see him (and AD to a lesser extent) taking plays off and follow the lead. It’s pretty clear; and Russ alone can’t solve it with his own determination. If all three play hard, the soldiers will get in line.

No more of these goofy possession punting shots

 

Someone should get LeBron and AD in a room off the record, just for a constructive reminder about championship mindset and what works .... had have them listen to and be reminded of their written words as well in AD's first season here when it won us a championship ..... about everyone on the team was going to hold each other accountable including them and AD holding LeBron accountable, on defense. It's pretty simple really. They aren't saying those things now in non scripted first responses so maybe they have forgotten those verbal and competitive commitments. Hard to believe but how do LeBron and AD as well take plays off if they remember to do that.

 

I can't say he threw Vogel under the bus in anyway there.

 

They took plays off in the Championship year. They just won a lot of games in the process. James was notorious for coasting during the regular season in Cleveland. Especially early in the season.
