I can't stand this douche, but even I have to admit that is impressive at his age.

Do you ever use the word "gonna", or do you always make sure to say going to?

Tatum dropped 54 and it wasn't threadworthy. We don't need a thread on any RS performance.

LeBron (LeGM) screwed LeBron (the player).

For all those saying "x dropped 50 on y night and no one cared"

- Lakers versus Warrior (Lebron v Curry) is basically the number 1 matchup of any season. Obviously people will talk more about it.
- a 37 year old dropping 56 points is almost unheard of - Obviously people will talk more about it.
- This comes one day after the "stat padding" thread - Obviously people will talk more about it in order to rebuttal those going hard in the other thread.
- The same people saying this are the same people who will nitpick at Lebron more than anyone else in the league, yet when people try to celebrate him, you can't help yourself. Do you not see the irony.

For those saying "Lebron played no Defense" & therefore suggest his performance isn't that impressive.

Can someone please give some evidence for this? I am not arguing his Defense is Elite anymore.

Outside of you posting a couple of examples of him resting (reality check a lot of your fav players do this) is there any statistical evidence?

Happy to be proven wrong, but I imagine the data will show him a little above average at worse, and for the Offensive Load he carries, that is more than adequate at 37, or at any age.

If someone wants to say the word, that's no big deal to each his own. But to type it online makes little sense due to both words having the same amount of letters. It's not a shortcut nor an abbreviation to type it out.

lebron is probably the worst defensive player in the planet he is expected to score at least 40.
theres no slack for him bc he constructed all this team and coach as well. while im impressed by 56, he needs to be consistent.
Doncic will be goat. Lauri will be his sidekick.

Curry got 2016 flashbacks.

Im seriously curious. How is that stat padding exactly? Please explain it to me because i cant for the life of me figure it out.

Do you have a well thought out explanation or is it just the usual Lebron baton so far up your ass that profile pic isn't actually of Samuel L Jackson but is in fact a live picture of you slowly losing bits of your soul watching Lebron play?

You could literally not even run back on defense all night, score 56 at age 37 no less, and it would still be impressive. If you can find ways to hate on this type of performance something really wrong with you.

I agree. My post was tongue in cheek :)
My eyes glaze over when reading alternative stat (not advanced stat) narratives that go many paragraphs long. If you can not make your point in 2 paragraphs it may not be a great point. :D

Considering the man’s age it might be a top 3 of all time regular season performance
