This isnt me trying to be cool or sound better than you:



If you honestly are having this tough a time wondering how a player can have random games where he is gasses/tired/lethargic, I question how far you went in sports.....


Losing your legs happens. And getting them back in a day or so happens. It isnt that weird or hard of a concept to understand, especially with a 33 year old on his 98th game

If you're simply wanting to know how people feel about Lebron's energy level, why are you framing questions like this?

I'm explaining why it doesn't make any sense.

A good way to explain how it's not a good explanation is to use people's expectation of him bouncing back the next game. I fully expect him to bounce back next game. Which would prove it's not a gradual fatigue.

What's your stance?

Already gave it you. Slackster says he's always tired and just shows it more when's he's frustrated. Which is the best explanation I've heard. So unless a better explanation comes to mind, then that will be my stance.

I don't know why you think I have some hidden agenda. I don't like Lebron but I'm pretty open about that. If I had a criticism for him in this area, I'd give it to you.

Yeah I hate to say it but this is rather odd discussion. LeBron has been the best for how many consecutive seasons now? And he's playing lights out again this season? At some point you're going to just have a game where you look exhausted. The NBA is really taxing on the body.

The implication is simple, really. The body has limits. He is human after all.

Again not a good argument for this discussion for the same reason I just said.

Hmmm..

The ol' "I hate the guy so if I was trying to be slick and start a thread hating on him I'd just come out and openly hate on him" defense.

Ain't buying it

Do you do any physical activity? Go to the gym? Ever had one of those days where you're fine, not sick, well rested, and yet you just don't have it that day? It happens.

not many...

in fact in the last 10 years he only has 4 MVP titles, and none since 2012-13

that is currently ZERO consecutive seasons.

I've given you my stance that I think seems most reasonable which doesn't seem all that hateful to me, yet you still think I have a hidden agenda.

Probably more mentally exhausted. I don't think this is a physical thing.

Usually those days are caused by breaking routine.

I don't feel like Lebron breaks routine all that often with all the trainers and workouts he has.

When I was playing ball, every couple weeks or so in the offseason we'd retest our verts and squat and all that shite to measure power increases, taking weight gain into consideration.

To keep it consistent, we'd do pretty much EVERYTHING in the days leading up to testing the exact same.

I swear there would be random testing days where I couldn't get within 3 inches of what I'd been testing at, and then the very next day I'd beat it by a half inch.

I don't know if he'll be as tired as he was in game 5, but I think it definitely hurts him.

It could be something as simple as a bad night’s sleep. Even if you try to keep your routine as familiar as possible, sometimes luck comes into play.

He’s 33 and in his 15th season, and over those seasons he has payed about as many games as you can possibly play. One bad plane ride or a bad night’s sleep could have put him off for this game.
