Off-ball LeBron? Today’s media scrutiny, have players forgotten how the media treated MJ in 93? The Cavs, KD/Tatum and more with my man @Travonne!

Lebron James is just one point shy of 50,000 career points (regular season and playoffs combined). Everything you need to know about LeBron’s historic milestone.

NEW @BostonSportsBSJ — If the #Cavs stun the #Celtics, it’ll happen because Evan Mobley turned into a star. You can sense the Cavs believe that too, and Donovan Mitchell takes every opportunity to hype him up.
“One of the best players in the world.”

More on this storyline
Mike Trudell: LeBron James has been named Western Conference Player of the Month, averaging 29.3 ppg, 10.5 rpg, and 6.9 apg in leading the Lakers to a 10-2 record in Feb. He extends his PoM record to 41, and at age 40, surpassing Karl Malone (37) as the oldest to sustain such dominance. -via Twitter @LakersReporter / March 4, 2025
Gilbert Arenas: There’s only a few people in the GOAT debate. You’ve got to understand what a debate is. If there’s a number one, whoever number two is, unless he’s an active player, he’s not part of the GOAT debate because he has nothing else to gain. So if he didn’t overtake the person then he’s out actually out of the conversation. So there’s only a few people that’s still in the running for a debate: It’ll be LeBron James, it’ll be Stephen Curry, it’ll be Kevin Durant, it’ll be Giannis Antetokounmpo, it’ll be Nikola Jokic, right? They’re active. So because they’re active they’re still chasing something. Once you retire, if you didn’t do what you were supposed to, you can be part of a debate no more. -via YouTube / March 4, 2025
The former Laker mused: “I think they have a chance. They’ve opened the door to be a contender, but there’s so much they have to sort out. “You know, they’re just starting to play together. You have two players that are actually quite similar. LeBron (James) and Luka, they both are playmaking forwards. “They kind of are point forwards. So trying to make all those pieces fit, trying to get their defense solid. You know, they’re a little thin at the center position, but they have great positional size. “…(I am) very interested to see, and I think they definitely could play themselves into contention, but I think it’s really early to say that when we haven’t seen it at least for a few weeks to see maybe some light, some understanding, some connectivity, but there’s a chance. -via Flashscore.com / March 4, 2025
Danny Cunningham: Kenny Atkinson says this was a planned day off for Donovan Mitchell. With 16 games in 29 days in March it’s more about looking ahead than anything else. -via Twitter @RealDCunningham / March 2, 2025
