On February 4, Beijing time, the 2021-22 NBA regular season continued. In recent times, Lakers star James has become the focus of media and fans. James has missed four consecutive games due to a knee injury and will most likely continue to miss today.
However, although he could not play, James's mood was still good. Earlier today, he again "bragged" on social media.
An account called LBJ History posted a highlight of James' 2005-06 season, writing: "James at the age of 21 was shocking. Sixteen years later, he still rules the alliance. Regular Season: 31.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists per game, the youngest player in NBA history to average 30+ points per game, playoffs: 30.8 points, 8.1 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game! James retweeted and wrote: "That kid from Akron, but only 21 years old? ”
However, although James is in a good mood, the situation of the Lakers is difficult to be optimistic about today. After beating the Trail Blazers yesterday, the Lakers have a record of only 25 wins and 27 losses, ranking 9th in the West, and 3.5 wins away from the Nuggets, who are 6th in the West, and it is very difficult to get a playoff spot directly.
For James himself, his injury is also worrying. At the same time, according to U.S. media statistics, if James wants to qualify for the top scorer at the end of the season, he must play 22 of the remaining 30 games of the season (that is, 70% attendance).
In the Lakers' next 30 games, they had four back-to-back battles. James currently averages 29.1 points per game, second in the league behind Durant (29.3).
