Almost 39 and he’s somehow having his most efficient season ever. Looks way more explosive than he did in the playoffs and has good lift on his jumpshot again. Dude might fuck around and still dominate into his 40s.

A non-negligible factor as to why nuggets won - an injured bron
If we’re adding an “injury” asterisk for the Nuggets ring then the Bucks 2021 ring might as well not even exist lol
You could do this for every single championship if you wanted to
“Non-negligible” is the operative term, doesn’t seem like they are saying put an asterisk on it.
That and starting point guard averaged 6. People aren’t ready to admit he’d have 2 more lakers rings if he wasn’t injured.
I’m a Lebron Stan and idk if we can say they’d have a guaranteed 2 more lol. I think the nuggets series was way closer than it ended up looking, but still.
A non inured Bron could have maybeeee maybeee push it to six. But Denver would have ended in 5 regardless on average.
Bron’s averaging good numbers vs lottery teams but that average goes out of the window vs a contender like Denver or Milwakee.1
I think that Nuggets team beats us anyway. But with a healthy Bron foot we’re at least stealing a game or two.
A healthy Bron obviously changes the equation, but I think you’re right. That Nuggets team just looked on a different level all throughout the playoffs
Jokic even on his worst playoffs nights was still putting up monster numbers.
no lol
Seeing a lot of flack for the free throws. He’s honestly probably just tired. The guy looks looks exhausted every game he plays and it’s harder to shoot free throws when you’re breathing heavily
The wonders of bull shark semen
the real freak of nature

LeBron healthy in the playoff has a shot every year Made it to WCF on one leg w Westbrook
The Jordan debate is dumb as shit at this point. Never made it past the first round without Pippen, no where near the longevity, worse at every aspect of basketball besides scoring and even that’s debatable.
It’s a GOAT discussion. Why should I care how MJ or Lebron did their first couple years? Or how long they played all star level basketball for? We are talking about the greatest ever.
MJ at his peak was better than any iteration of Lebron. More MVPs, more finals MVPs, more rings. He dominated in a way Lebron never did.
Lebron v the Mavs killed the discussion
Jordan’s the goat
Bron never won a finals without an all star teammate so I don’t see your argument
Yeah the injury in the playoffs really held him back. He’s still a really amazing player.
68% FT? Talk about LeBum
^/s
27/7/7. Dread it. Run from it.
Steroids.
I he improved his FT shooting to the point of averaging 50/40/90 in 21st season, the GOAT debate might be closed.
Unfortunately, it’ll be a miracle if he even gets it up to 80%
LeEfficientAtEverythingButFreeThrows :(
You think the difference between being the greatest or not is determined by his free throw %? Lmfao
Will that mess up the 27-7-7 career average?
His average isn’t 27-7-7. It’s 27-8-7 now
His rebounding average has unfortunately gone up
He looks way more explosive after 5 games than after 85 games 🤔
The fact he has to do this shit while AD is on the roster is insane
He’s officially entered his 386th prime 🤓
