I have no idea if it is true, but found it so amazingly improbable I thought it was worth sharing.  Lebron who for his career averages 27.2 ppg, 7.5 rpg, and 7.3 apg has never had a game where he went for exactly 27/7/7.  If that is true, that is pretty remarkable.

Pfft. Barely able to perform to his own average. LeBust.

Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time.

But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.

Not surprised.  See how many he scores against the Pelicans.  That Thunder game pricing might go way up.

Looks like it's accurate:

Conspiracy theory, but I'm watching this Lakers-Pelicans game out of boredom, and Lebron seems to be intentionally hesitant. Like this guy isn't the same guy as last week who was jacking up 30 shots to try and score a bunch. Even in the previous game against IND he only took 18 shots.

Kind of feels like he's plotting it out so that he overtakes Kareem for the record against the Bucks later next week (who Kareem also formerly played for lol).

Davis is back and in form.  Lebron scales it back when AD is there as he wants AD to be the main guy with him picking his spots more.  Lebron really upped his attempts when Davis was out injured.

I thought Lebron would target the scoring record against the Bucks (Kareem’s old team as well, and a team that currently has Giannis).

But looks like he’s going for it tonight. Already has taken 6 shots in 7 minutes lol. 28 points away now

up to 18 now.  Still first half.  looks like he is pushing hard.  Davis looks timid.  May be the whole team is just letting him go.

Hope Lebron gets the record tonight, with the Lakers losing at home to the Thunder. Wouldn’t that be poetic.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Someone tweeted out the top 20 scorers from Lebron’s rookie season.  Different times, man. Some of the FG% alone.  Also, if you can guess who was #3, bravo to you.

That was Peja's season, no?

3rd in scoring, 4th in MVP.

Now back to hating on him  :laugh:
