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).
