In the Los Angeles Clippers’ match against the Cleveland Cavaliers LeBron James was once again the difference and dominated the 118:113 Cavs victory with 39 points and 14 rebounds. Afterwards, Clippers coach Doc Rivers was amazed.
ESPN asked Rivers what the difference is between the 23-year-old James and the 33-year-old James, and he replied,”I see no difference apart from the fact that he’s become wiser”.
“Most of the players at this age are smart enough to see everything. But they are usually too old to make much of this knowledge. Kevin McHale once said,’ If I had my current knowledge and the body I had when I was 22 years old, I would have become the best player of all time’ LeBron has the knowledge and is still one of the two or three best athletes in the league. He combines both.”
James is currently in his 15th birthday. NBA season and leads the league in minutes (38.6). The four-time MVP averages 28.9 points, 7.8 rebounds and 8.6 assists,”He can beat you up with his brain or his power,”said Rivers,”It’s scary to prepare for him while studying video.”
