The serious mistake of declaring LeBron James dead
We analyze the reaction of character and personality from a LeBron James who has silenced the critics as only he knows how to do.
There is nothing eternal in life, but if there is someone who seems to put that into question, it is LeBron James. Already considered by many as the greatest player of all time, he lived another magical night with the Los Angeles Lakers, dispelling the ghosts that were inevitably looming over his definitive decline. At 41 years old, he still has plenty of game left.
It is evident that at some point we will see a clearly diminished version of LeBron James, and we all know that, at 41 years old, the moment must be immediate. This somewhat hesitant start to the season, in which he is being seen far from his usual physical prowess, paved the way for those who seem eager for the King to hand over his crown. The end of the 10-point streak may have been the necessary catalyst for LeBron to play more freely and show that he is still one of the best.

These recent games for him should be understood as a sort of preseason. For the first time in his career, he didn't start the season from the beginning, having to rejoin an NBA where teammates and rivals were already in rhythm and competitive form. However, it feels like the time has come for him to showcase his best level. This is evident from his performance against the Philadelphia 76ers, both in numbers and in feelings. Will we see from there on out a LeBron James like the one from last season, defying the laws of logic? If that happens, the Los Angeles Lakers will be contenders for everything.
