On March 6, Beijing time, the Lakers beat the Warriors by 8 points today, so that they not only ended the 4-game losing streak, but also retained the ninth position in the West, and the Warriors suffered 4 consecutive losses, and the ranking fell from the former second place in the West to the third place in the West. In this game, James once again interpreted the nature of the superstar, the whole game, he played 38 minutes, 19 of 31, slashed 56 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, ushered in a number of milestones, and created a number of NBA records, it turns out that even at the end of his career, the 37-year-old James is still the most inexplicable point on the field.
James has been questioned a lot since entering the league, during this time, due to the Lakers' poor record, James has also become the leader of the empty cutting group many times, and the doubts about him are overwhelming. James's video of brushing points in the last quarter is also constantly circulating on social media, in addition, the topic of James's garbage time brushing has also caused widespread controversy, some fans said that in order to get 40,000 points, he can say that he can do everything he can, whether it is garbage time or not, he will not miss it, Jordan and Kobe Bryant can not do this.
Recently, Bill Simmons also publicly satirized James, saying that LeBron is unlikely to be truce, because he has to surpass Carl Malone in scoring and get 40,000 points, which is an important weight for him to compete with Jordan for the first man in history after retiring. Perhaps sensing the voices of the outside world, James was very unhappy about this, and after yesterday said that people did not list him as the best scorer in history, after today's game, he gave a public interview to break the doubt.
James said in an interview that players like him can easily score points no matter what era in history, because his style of play is suitable for any era in the NBA. The most important point is that James stressed that he doesn't care about these 56 points at all, and what he hopes most is that the Lakers can stand up and beat the Warriors. After all, the Warriors have been James' nightmare for years and his biggest obstacle on the way to winning the championship, and without the Warriors, James's career could have won two more championships.
It is only a matter of time before James surpasses Carl Malone in scoring, and next season, if nothing else, James's career total score exceeds 40,000 points, which is also a foregone conclusion. Those 56 points are really nothing to James, James's personal ability is there, he wants to score, like a probe. However, James can cut down the 56 + 10 + 3 data at the age of 37, it is indeed superior, this feat has never been seen before, I am afraid that it is difficult to come after, congratulations to James, one step closer to 40,000 points.
