Lebron..youngest to ever...

Postby BIG GREEN on Mon Mar 29, 2004 12:52 am

Youngest to ever score 1000 points...

...and now..since last night's spectacular game against the nets...yongest to ever score 40+ points. He also had 13 assists and 6 rebounds.

Had he gone to the all-star game :? ...he would have been the youngest ever to do so.

He played the point last night.

Where are the folks that said he can't handle that position? Please, take a stand and bow. :applaud:

James keeps getting better...and it's only his rookie season. :?

If you were reffering to what I said in the thread about Wagner then you were very misunderstanding. Not Can't handle the point, its more of that he's not as effective when he's playing point, overall, not in one out of 4 games. When he's the primary handler he generally commits more turnovers and finds it harder to score (From the Cavs coaching staff).

In the future he can obviously become better, maybe by next year if they want him to still be the 1 he would have learnt thoguh the summer.

But before you go crazy, 4-14, 5-17, 5-13, 15-29 has been his shooting in the games he's played a little point (39.7%). Not that he can't do it, but in this stage in his career its not his best position.

In about 2 years he'll probably be having 25, 7 and 7. (maybe not 2 but 2-3 at most, if not then I'll hide myself)

Not to take anything away from LeBron, but when you jump to the NBA straight out of high school, you do have an advantage when it comes to achieving milestones and records at a younger age. :wink: It's still impressive though; after all, not all high schoolers are ready to contribute straight away, nor are they capable of playing the way LeBron has in their rookie seasons.

With his numbers and the Cavs being in the playoff picture after a less than spectacular start to the 2003/2004 season, LeBron has to be Rookie of the Year. Melo's had a great rookie campaign as well, but I think James has definitely secured ROY honours now, if he hadn't already.
