@Truthorfib 11 месяцев назад

You mean during the first time Jokic won it? Yeah, it was bad that he was called the worst MVP ever but hindsight is 2020. It's easy to say that now when he won a ring. Besides during that year the top candidates like Lebron and Embiid got injured. Jokic was around 3rd or 4th before Lebron and Embiid got injured. Just saying, its easy to say thmgs when you already know what you know now.

@rfoster8 11 месяцев назад

Dirk retired at 40, and he played 21 seasons. Only 5 total players have played 21 seasons. As for ppg, Kevin Willis averaged 2, Kevin Garnett averaged 3, Robert Parrish averaged 4, Vince carter averaged 7, and dirk averaged 7. All of that adds up to 23, and lebron will probably average more than all of them combined.

@RockyHoward 11 месяцев назад

Nobody can. Lebron only did it because the East was weak that year. Pistons teetering off. No Boston Big 3 yet. All the competition was in the West: Lakers Dallas Spurs Rockets Suns There's a reason why from 1999 to 2011, that's 12 championships and 10 of them went to the West and only 2 to the East. If you count 1999 to 2019 that's 21 rings and 14 of them went to the West and only 7 to the East but Lebron had a squad for those 3 rings so he didn't just carry some guys.

Given that besides Lebron, only 9 other NBA players have played at least 20 seasons. The average number of games played between those 9 players in year 20 is 52 games. So I'd say Lebron's playing the number of games expected.

I expect that lebron will be much more available this year. The last few years, he had to carry the load offensively to put any kind of pressure on opposing defenses. Now that the lakers have an array of weapons and Lebron can be a part of an offense instead of all of it, he can conserve himself much more efficiently. I expect his defense will improve too for the same reason.

Furthermore, no team worth its salt is sitting around fretting whether they're "underdogs" or being "hunted"; their primary concern is to win and put themselves in the best position to do so.
