Ja Morant being tested is not really a shocking news to be honest. This is the league with some of the greatest athletes in the world and they are people who are famous for jumping really high, that's something in basketball, not required but many do.

And even in those players, he is on a whole another level, we have seen very few people like him, I mean jumping "unreal" even in the NBA level is rare, only handful has managed to shock the world even while being known as a jumper, because people expect you t jump high anyway, and breaking above those high expectations is rare. This dude could touch the top of a backboard, given the uniqueness of the situation, I can see it.

Lebron James also spends lots of money on his physical conditioning since he entered the NBA. I'm sure it was discussed here in this thread way back years ago that he is spending around $1,500,000 per year on his health-related stuff. That's how serious Lebron is as he's not just building his legacy but also taking care of his endorsements. Lebron, after retirement, is truly damn rich and his hard work maintaining his good physical condition pays off.

I don't know when we can witness again a player that is still versatile and agile at the age of 38.

My closest candidate would be Giannis Antetoukounmpo.

Yeah its not a secret that Lebron James invested a lot of money to his body to make him more fot and condition every game of his career so its not surprising at all that despite of his age he can still dominate. He's full of talent that's why and he continue to put up some big shows then broke some outstanding records.

Closest is Giannis since he's strong but his 28 years old so if he didn't get any serious injury maybe he will be the next face of NBA but I also think Ja Morant have bright future to be the next face since he's so talented and explosive.

LeBron James is averaging 29.7 PPG this season but if he continues to establish monster production at some of their games, like above the 30s, 40s, , etc., he might be able to pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar within their next 10 games. That was an insane production at his age.

We are all lucky to witness that kind of achievement in this era. Good storytelling in the future.

That record is something that I believed can't be broken for another 20 years or more, I guess (but my boy Luka Doncic will get it lol). Advanced congratulations already for LeBron James and damn, I hope no injury will spoil that achievement.

A couple of televised games on ESPN tonight. The first one is between the Hawks and Mavericks. Not too exciting but at least there’s Luka and Trae. The later game between the Timberwolves and Nuggets is a great one to watch. Both of these teams are young and hungry. There should be some nice highlights and good competition. The Joker seems like he’s back at full strength after his last performance.

Pretty much he is really doing great his latest game was a great stretch on what he can truly do inside the court but because of a lack of chemistry within the Rockets they are performing well he also made a triple-double on one of his games against the Sacramento Kings which still because the Huston Rockets really isn't the best team out there but Alperen Sengun is trying his very hard in getting those crucial points for the team, and you are right he's got a huge ceiling to fill for improvement and I think he can be next season,


Pretty much being on the top of the standing can really mess up your brain and for the Memphis Grizzlies they surely think of them as a dynasty because of that and that they achieve something to that extent of having a dynasty, and sure thing Ja "Almost" Morant will always like to do those dunk to the face on any player he possibly faces, right now if he always does that without any hesitation sometimes it will fail hard I really don't like the Grizzlies but with their antics, like they are number 1 in the west and they are not afraid of any team because there are no team that will post a threat for them in the west, and they are a Dynasty right now what Dillon "Dynasty" Brooks is saying I think their brain are mess up for saying premature things, that they haven't achieve yet,

Who will be traded? That's the question. There are so many inconsistent players on their roster and the Mavericks management should listen to Luka Doncic on this part. He is the playmaker, he knows what is missing. If there's someone who has great usage to him, it's Dwight Powell. Stats-wise, he ain't registering good numbers but upon watching that guy, there's the activity on screens and tapping the ball back outside for an offensive rebound.

The Timberwolves actually fighting back.
Both teams are weak on the defensive end but they can put in a high amount of points due to their offensive powers. I think the winner will be those who will play harder defense and try more stops to gain a good run.
Minnesota is on the lead to start the 3rd quarter.

The Mavericks are building a team around him so he has the power to demand the whole management to be active in trades. He's like Le-GM Version 2.0 now. Kidding .

Anyways, Mavericks are now at the 5th spot despite having a bad start and at the bottom at the start of the season. They have many players to trade with. Hardaway Jr., Bertans, some draft picks. There are some rumors as well that Wood might not get an extension with the Mavericks thus, they might use him as well to get some players.

Either way, Doncic is the one who has a big impact of the team and the role players are performing better now compare to how they performed at the start of the season but if they want to be a playoff contender, they might tweak the roster a bit and get some better role players

As long as they're winning most of their games, his teammates will not gonna say anything against him at least for now, because all of them need to climb to the top to be able to be recognized and get some nice offer in the future. But before that, they really need to do something for their 3rd losing streak because if they don't change, they will gonna find themselves in a 10th spot soon. They need to take this chance to win every playoff game and have a chance to get to the Finals and finally, Luka can talk about anything he wants regarding the NBA games after that.
