    He's looking tired out there: maybe wearing down a bit.

    Good for the team to step up in Lebron's worse game in awhile

    I mean the Grizz entire D plan was to give Bron hell. They're the most efficient team on D in the entire league. It was Brooks and then a swarm. Not sure what more he could've or should've done.

    He did look tired, and that’s understandable, Memphis has so many athletes to throw at you, it’s wild. But even in a meh game he still put up 23/8/6.

    Lakers do not have any room to sit or give concession losses. Lebron has two days off to rest for Portland. He should play.

    Doing this in year 20 is crazy. I didn’t notice it in game either, but I read he played the entire 4th without a break too.

    He's definitely raised the bar for an aging great. I think he has a lot more left in the tank.

    LeBron whenever the hell he finally gets to about 75-80% of his powers now on offense at only 20-24 minutes a game will still be a good player.

    Lebron is still playing like a top 15 player.

    Remember when we were young and acted like we were Kobe on the playgrounds ?

    Dillon Brooks actually does the same thing on NBA courts.

    Worst shots selection in NBA history

    yeah, he's a weird guy. plays hard all the time, but is irrationally confident and not always smart. sort of prime stephen jackson-ish.
