LABron James

Was there any doubt?

LeBron James might be entering his 16th professional season, well past the point at which mere mortals begin undergoing steep declines,

but he’s also playing arguably the best basketball of his career. Forget about the regular season. During the playoffs, he averaged a

scorching 34.0 points, 9.1 rebounds, 9.0 assists while slashing 53.9/34.2/74.6 and willing the Cleveland Cavaliers into a battle with

the Golden State Warriors for the umpteenth time. nfl cheap nike jerseys

Despite having so much mileage, he led the entire field in minutes played, player efficiency rating, win shares, win shares per 48

minutes, box plus/minus and value over replacement player. Though Kevin Durant emerged with Finals MVP, James was unquestionably the

NBA’s leading figure, as has been the case at so many different points throughout his illustrious career. new nike nfl jerseys for sale cheap

Precedent might dictate an upcoming drop-off, but James is an unprecedented player. FiveThirtyEight.com’s CARMELO forecast, for example,

has him falling to 11.5 WAR—higher than the 2017-18 efforts of Durant (7.1), Stephen Curry (8.1), Giannis Antetokounmpo (9.2) and

almost everyone else. He may still be the league’s best player moving forward, mind-numbing as that may seem.

Now, those talents will benefit the Los Angeles Lakers. cheap wholesale nike nfl jerseys

James alone pushes the Purple and Gold from the lottery to postseason contention in the brutal Western Conference, even though the

team’s subsequent signings (Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephenson and JaVale McGee) haven’t done much to facilitate that rise. But we also can’t cheap nike jerseys nfl

overlook the impact he might have on the growth of incumbent youngsters such as Brandon Ingram, Kyle Kuzma and Lonzo Ball.

Some players have struggled to coexist with James. He’s not an easy figure to thrive alongside, given his ball dominance and constant

quest for perfection. But those who do accept their roles will benefit from the attention he always draws and potentially grow into even

more valuable pieces. cheap nfl jerseys from china nike
