The LeBron James All-NBA (2nd) and Luka Doncic - 24-25 Thread

[IG2]

LeBron 1-10 from 3 since returning. Looks pretty toothless out there scoring wise.

Make that 1-12

This is the most toothless he has ever been offensively. 40 year old coming off an injury....

And now AR rolled that same ankle....

We are getting hit at a bad time with these injuries rn

Don't like the approach of LeBron and Luka late in this game. Austin is the one actually playing with some urgency offensively.

Austin f'n Reaves. What a winner.

LeBron going iso for 2 straight possessions was criminal lol. He just has no game right now. Can't drive, can't finish and can't shoot. Worst he has ever been in 22 years. Thankfully he's been busting ass defensively these last 2 games.

[Fadeaway_J]

LeBron just punted this game into the sun. Wow.

[jalengreen]

Can only laugh at what I just witnessed

[IG2]

They lucked into last night's win. Otherwise it would've been B2B choke jobs.

If this is what LeBron's going to look like playoffs will merely be a formality. They're not getting out of the first round.

The turnover was bad, but helping off Williams in the corner when you needed to avoid giving up a three was even more egregious. Just awful.

6th Bull on the court that whole 4th qtr

[jalengreen]

Not at all surprising that he's been cooked since coming back from the groin injury. Shouldn't be a shock to anybody when the guy's 40 lol.

It sucks that the injury derailed that run but I'm confident he'll get back to his previous form in time for the playoffs.

Wtf was Lebron doing there?

Luka did his best last night to lose us the game and now Lebron tonight

And then AR bailed us out and they let Giddey get a straight line drive shot, what are we doing

JJ is likely seething rn

Lebron always looks a bit off coming back from injuries, get it together, its basically April

None of what happened at the end had anything to do with coming back from an injury. Neither did him giving up an open three to Vuc a few minutes earlier because he was stuck in the backcourt complaining. His approach last night was far better even though he still looked very rusty.

Playoffs start in 2.5 weeks. He's gonna need a miraculous recovery to go back to playing at an all nba level.

This season looks done

Actually, 3 for his last 27.

Comically streaky shooting for what's been a really disjointed season offensively.

Lol I'm not stressing over two bad plays at the end. It happens. I care far more about how he's looked throughout the games, which is a step down from pre-injury - neither of these games end up in the clutch if he plays at the level he was at previously.

Anyone remember 2023? That’s what you’re getting

3 weeks from now. If they avoid the play in maybe it would help. I'm not optimistic tho

[Mos_Heat]

Those were hilarious 48 hours from the guy

[dcstanley]

I would like to see Lebron in a suped-up Draymond role focusing most of his energy on defense and finishing while Luka/Austin handle the bulk of the initiating responsibilities.
