Now, with James’ 38th birthday looming, others are getting in on the age jokes – though perhaps with not so much playful intent.
LOS ANGELES — LeBron James seems well-prepared for cracks about his age. For a while now, he’s poked the most fun at himself.
Now, with James’ 38th birthday looming, others are getting in on the jokes – though perhaps with not so much playful intent. “I know I’ve put in more than enough work in every aspect of the game on the floor, so definitely I do not like ever shooting under 50% or better from the field,” he said. “I’ve always prided myself on being efficient from the field, so just gotta be better, especially from the perimeter as well.”
Clippers coach Ty Lue – who coached James in Cleveland – said he hoped that the record-breaking game would happen when the Lakers are in L.A. so he can attend. But speaking about his former players’ slow start, Lue waxed philosophical about how the Lakers’ losing record might weigh on James.
