On March 23, Beijing time, when James averaged 30 points per game at the age of 37, leading the scoring list was naturally a very shocking thing. Now legendary smiling assassin Isaiah Thomas revealed James' offensive mentality this season, he believes that James is the first time in his career to put scoring first, rather than focusing on grabbing rebounds and sending assists, naturally also believes that James wants to hit the record of the oldest leading scorer.
This season's scoring list:
1. James 30.0 points
2. Embiid 29.8 points
3. Alphabet brother 29.7 points
4. Trae Young 28.2 points
5. Doncic 27.9 points
(Durant 29.6 points, not enough appearances)
In the first 18 seasons of James's career, he has only won the scoring king once, no doubt not that James can't get the scoring king, but he has not paid so much attention to the honor of the scoring king in the past, and prefers to lead his teammates to score.
This season, James is not optimistic about the prospects of the Lakers in the case of the Lakers' performance struggle, and James's goal is undoubtedly to increase the number of points and attack the first place in the historical scoring list.
Smiling Assassin Isaiah Thomas said, "This may be the first time in James' career that he has played with an 'offensive scoring first' mentality. In the past, James would usually play more of an offensive initiator role in the game, with a balanced output in all aspects. But now it's the first time I've seen James put offense first, like saying, 'I'm going to be the first to try to score before I do anything else.'" ”
James has often ignored him when he mentions the greatest scorer in history, so James has also proved his scoring ability, he has twice bombed 50+ points, and the total score of the regular season has surpassed the postman Malone to rise to the second place in history.
"People want to see 25-year-old James play like this, with a 'score first' mentality, but he never really showed us his full scoring pattern. Now that James is 37 years old, he shows people a 'score first' mentality. That's what James can do now, and can you imagine when he was younger, if he were going to play like he did now? Scoring first, not wanting to assist, not wanting to grab rebounds, just wanting to keep scoring, this is what we see as James now. ”
It is worth mentioning that if James wins the scoring crown honor this season, he will set the record for the oldest leading scorer in NBA history, surpassing the record of 35 held by Jordan at the age of 37.
