For once, we're going to talk about the NBA without mentioning Victor Wembanyama. Well, it's failed again. Last night, it was another player who set the basketball floors on fire. Its name probably rings a bell; LeBron James.
LeBron James, soon the undisputed GOAT?
Last night, the Lakers suffered their ninth defeat of the season in 21 games, and a 109-80 setback against Minnesota by a certain Rudy Gobert. We could stop there, and praise the French pivot. But you know us, that's not really the type of house. No, we prefer instead to focus on the capital performance of LeBron James with the jersey of the Angelina.
It's simple, for four games, LeBron hasn't made a single three-point basket. Finito. The record is masterful: 0/2 against the Spurs, 0/4 against OKC, 0/9 against Utah. Masterful, we told you. So as he steps onto the floor of the Target Center in Minnesota, LeBron is riding a sweet series of 0/15 three-pointers. The temptation is infinitely great to pursue it, and it is for this reason that he adds a 0/4 to three points, to reach a miraculous 0/19. You have to go back to November 27, and a match against Phoenix, to see him make a winning shot. Good at two points is not much better, he finished the match with a 4/12 shooting, and only 10 points, his lowest total equaled with the Lakers.
Despite this feat, he remains far from the record of legend Grant Williams, and his 25 prize-winning bricks. LeBron James is only seven messed up three-pointers away from becoming THE living legend. No debate possible. The rest of the episode this Thursday against Miami. LeBron could enter (a little more) in NBA history.
