LeBron James: Olympics Showed He Has 'A Lot In The Tank' 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Oct 1, 2024 5:30 am

LeBron James said playing in the Olympics over the summer proved that he still had "a lot in the tank" at Monday's media day.


James added that competing against Serbia and France in the semifinals and finals was like "two Game 7s back-to-back."


"It felt great to play meaningful basketball. To go out there at my age, the miles that I have, and to be able to play at the level I played at, it gave me even more of a sense of, 'OK, I do have a lot in the tank. A lot.'


"And I can help a big part of a team win the ultimate and whatever -- if it's gold, or if it's a Larry O'Brien Trophy, or whatever the case may be, I can still get it done," said James.


James also said that he felt "really good" both mentally and physically coming into the season.


James discussed being teammates with Bronny James, saying he was focused on being in the moment.


"I have not thought about what the future holds. Kind of just living in the moment. Especially with Bronny being here, too. I don't want to take this moment for granted," said James.
