LeBron James put his superman cape on for the Lakers in Los Angeles' 21-point comeback vs. the Clippers.
Transcript
00:00 LeBron James continues to dominate father time and what was most surprising to me, or not surprising, but stood out the most to me, is that not only he outscored the Clippers in the fourth quarter by himself, Dakota, but if you look at his averages for fourth quarter points per game, he's the leading fourth quarter scorer in NBA history and he's averaging more in the fourth quarter this season than at any other point in his career, which really goes to show you how long he's dominated for and how stupid the idea is.
00:29 How stupid the idea he wasn't clutch was before.
00:33 Yeah, the clutch thing to me went out the window a long time ago.
00:37 As it pertains to him against father time, I think he has defeated father time, but not for the reasons most people would bring up.
00:45 When I watched his All-Star interview and he talked about the fact that he's closer to the end than obviously the beginning, it was the piece from which he spoke about it.
00:55 That's why I think he beat father time. You think a guy's against father time is usually because you're still chasing something and your body or your mind is incapable of doing what it needs to do for you to get to that point.
01:07 When you think of LeBron, there's nothing left for him to prove. If you got him as the GOAT, another championship's not going to change that. If you got him as number two, three, another championship's not going to change that.
01:17 I think where he sees himself in it as the greatest ever, I don't think anything's going to happen that's going to change that.
01:24 I think it's the piece that he's playing with, the calmness with it. He himself realizes, "I've won."
01:33 It's not normal, really. Western Conference Finals a year ago, at this stage of a career, but just looking at what he's doing, we've never seen anyone even remotely approach sniffing, producing at this level at this point in time.
01:48 I think when it's all said and done, what he's doing at this phase of his career will only add to his legacy.
01:55 You're right, he doesn't have anything to prove, but you can always smooth some more icing on top of the cake.
01:59 True. That's fair, but in the same way you say what he's doing in year 21, we've never seen before, I can say that for year 20, year 19.
02:08 I just feel like he's just adding more on top of it, but I think everybody should just appreciate it for what it is. You're probably never going to see this again.
