You really have to appreciate how in each section of his career, he's been approaching the game differently with his body getting older. That midrange is a beauty to see

[@giffengood]

He's improved it, but it's still

[@elhefe543]

[@S0SH1N]

Not in the beginning of his career. He evolved.

[@elhefe543]

@@S0SH1N i mean the beginning what the first time he was with the cavs? by the time he was with heat he was doing that all day

[@S0SH1N]

First five years, Lebron was shooting his 2 pointers below league average. He then vastly improved and has stayed above the league average the rest of his career. However, it was only until Miami that his 3 point percentage finally eclipsed and started to match the league average as 3 point shooting was more prevalent. His next stint with the cavs was when we started to see a more nuanced approach at the midrange, where his efficiency was still at a high level with a more balanced approach to jump shots in that area. Finally with the Lakers, we see perfect offense Lebron. Keeping his 3 point percentage alive with his waning athleticism putting a higher emphasis on his ability to make moves, not simply being an athletic beast. In every part of his career, he's improved drastically and the midrange ability wasn't as pronounced as it was with the second stint with the cavs.

Why isn’t this man in the MVP conversation? Leading his team in scoring in year 21 and carrying his team every night still is fucking insane. Literally everyone else is coming off the bench at his age and he’s not just starting but carrying the team still!

[@tiktokexposed898]

If the Lakers get a top 3-4 seed he'll definitely be in the MVP conversation

[@bryrashad]

Because the NBA’s criteria for MVP has always been lazy, flawed, and narrative driven. If the storyline isn’t about LeBron by the end of the season, the Lakers aren’t a top 4 seed, and LeBron doesn’t put up 30ppg again, he won’t win it, regardless of how efficient he is, and regardless of how sorry the Lakers are without him.

[@kalagalagchannel3044]

Agree 100% but nba is unfair lebron was the mvp during his cavs he put into his shoulder the cavs without kyrie and K love was injured but he still bring the cavs into the final ! They choose harden over lebron i hate nba at that time i swear after lebron retirement i will never watch nba anymore!

[@bronisthegoat8915]

It’s insane. I mean the lakers are literally -16.7 with him on the bench and +7 with him on the court all while this is his 21st season and AD I’d supposed to be the one carrying. There has never and will never be anyone more valuable to their team in nba history.

Love him or hate him at this point just appreciate The Great Lebron James while we still can.. He made us all Witnesses..

[@rize4957]

NBA is so broken, they don't have this MF in the MVP voting. Especially a 39 years old doing this? DOIN THIS?! AT AGE 39?!

[@SALSADURA1000]

It was such an honor to be at this game with my son. Today was my first time seeing Lebron James play in person. At the age of 38 going on 39, his greatnest is unmatched. AD had an outstanding game, but unfortunately he fouled out. Austin Reeves hitting a clutch 3-pointer towards the end of regulation was brilliant. As a result, it almost sealed the game. The rest of the Laker Quad had a decent game despite the poor performance from behind the arc. Overall, awesome game especially seeing it live. LAKER NATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!
