At 42, what LeBron does in transition still blows my mind. He's got that one directional speed and power to finish through contact, and watching him slice between defenders his own size like butter tells me the physical tools haven't left yet.
I love the feel too. Catching Combo... I mean catching Mitchell asleep on the weak side with that nifty one handed pass for the and one shows the vision is still elite.
But Coach Nick has to point out the other side of this. His mind wants to do things his body can't always deliver anymore. He doesn't elevate like he used to, especially off two feet, and that bad finish off the glass after sealing Mobley is proof he needs to adjust how he scores down there.
He's still great. He's just 42 playing against guys with speed and bounce he hasn't had in years. That's the story right now. #shorts
