Beijing time on March 12, in an NBA regular season game that ended today, the Lakers defeated the Wizards 122-109 at home, ending a 2-game losing streak, this game Lakers star LeBron James once again ushered in the outbreak, the whole game played 35 minutes, 25 shots 18, including 9 three-pointers 6 of 6, free throws 8 of 8, got 50 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block, this is James this season again against the Warriors after scoring 56 points, once again bombed 50+ points, but also in the past 6 days and 3 games, The second time it hit 50+ points.
At the same time, in the last three games, James can average 43 points, 10.3 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 blocks per game, shooting 56% from the field and 89% from the free throws. There is no doubt that James has turned on the continuous rampage mode, and his performance has also been praised by teammates and coaches.
Speaking about the performance of teammate Ms, Wei Shao said: "When you find the form, you will play the state, there is not much you can say or explain. Tucker said: "I just saw him hit the shot and I knew I had to feed him. It's inspiring to see such a performance. Lakers head coach Vogel also said: "He's really good at basketball, that LeBron James, this league has never seen a player like him at this stage of his career, doing what he does." ”
Obviously, James's recent performance is not exaggerated, the Lakers' poor record this season can not hide James's greatness, but at the same time, we must also note one thing, that is, this style of play is actually not what James really wants, all along, James prefers to use the organization to lead teammates to win the game, he likes to pass the ball to let teammates into rhythm, but in the recent games, James's assists are very small.
So far this season, James can only average 6.3 assists per game, which is his new low in the past 8 seasons, it is worth mentioning that James is currently only 2 assists away from reaching the career 10,000 assists milestone, if it is not this season's teammates are really not very strong, James may have become the first player in NBA history to achieve 10,000 rebounds and 10,000 assists at the same time, of course, if it is not surprising, the next game he can achieve this achievement.
For most of the season, James' passes have not been able to translate into points, and the poor offensive form of his teammates has forced James, especially in recent games, to choose to score on his own. After this game, his average points per game have come to the first place in the league, and this season even hopes to become a scoring king, you know that James was the one who took the assist king, he has been in transition since 2020, but in the end he was forced to become a singles king this season.
Of course, on the one hand, this also proves that James is indeed not a player who likes to brush data, and many fans this season are mocking James for always brushing points in the game garbage time, but in fact, looking at James's recent performance, you know that if he really wants to brush points, his career will not be only 1 scoring king so far, and the cumulative score of his career may have already surpassed Malone.
NBA reporter Sam Quinn thrust james after the game: "If LeBron can become a leading scorer at the age of 37, he can probably do it in any year of his career, as long as he wants." James actually said that if he wanted to, he could compete for the top scorer every year, but his style of play was never like this, unless he had to, he really rarely attacked like this in the game like recently.
