re: How can a team with King James keep getting bounced early in the playoffs?

quote:

---

He's not just pushing 40, he's played 68,000 minutes on a professional basketball court.

Only a handful of players have surpassed 50,000.

There's a lot of mileage on those tires.

I know it's en vogue to hate the guy but it's pretty crazy that at this point in his career, he is averaging 36 minutes and posting 25 - 8 - 8 every night and upping those numbers in high-pressure games.

The greatest to ever do it. The man is an engineering marvel. A genetic freak of nature who wasn't just blessed with dynamic physical abilities but the basketball IQ to overwhelm the game in every aspect of it. Still, the greatest comparison on the planet to show how dominant he is in all areas of the game.

King James:

40K points, 11K assists, 11K rebounds.

Any other NBA great:

10K points, 10K assists, 10K rebounds, it never happened even once by anyone else.
