I was calling his season as a whole inefficient. .528 TS% and a career high 19.3% turnover rate.

I personally would enjoy seeing Lebron play for several more years, so long as his body can handle it. I didn't think he would be this durable and this good at this age. I have never bought into the Lebron = GOAT argument (over MJ), but if Lebron played until 43-44 years old and kept running up the crazy career stats and records, you'd have to think that several of those records would stand for a long time. It would be fun to see him keep going and keep pushing his numbers up. And Lebron seems to do that without dragging the team down with him, a la Kobe in his last 1-2 years when all he cared about was getting up his shots as the team rotted around him.
I thought LeBron had 2 or so years left when he first went to LA. 7 years in and he's still pretty good.

Ya gotta love the Golden State announcers, “He’s trying to help him up!” LOL. And he was serious.

I remember seeing this a few years ago except it was Suns uniforms and KD's face where Wemby's is and the same comment. My how things have changed.

Who's stopping KD and Booker? Absolutely everybody.

You just nudge Booker one time and he just goes off the rails. I've never seen anyone play so much worse when they get all pissy.

Yep, the book, no pun intended, is out on him now. Rough him up a little and he becomes ordinary.

Beal would make make a good backcourt partner with Cade, at least on paper. I was thinking Allen for Stewart.
