LeBron James is undoubtedly the greatest all-time player. He is more often invited to the interviews. During a recent podcast of Mind the Game, the Los Angeles Lakers star player discussed the gaming ability of Luka Doncic with JJ Reddick. LeBron James complimented Luka Doncic and explained the reasons why Doncic is an unguardable player.
“What’s interesting about Luka is that he’s one of the handful of guys in this era who can make any pass out of a double-team. You are one of them, James (Harden) is one of them, and Luka is one of them. So why do you blitz him?” JJ Redick asked to LeBron James
“I don’t understand it. Especially with the shooting they surround him with… He’s gonna make every read. When Tim Hardaway is hitting six or seven threes, you’re done. Kyrie is going to do what he does, Luka is going to do what he does. When you get Tim Hardaway hitting six or seven threes and in our game earlier this year, we blitzed Luka and Dante Exum hit five or six threes.” James answered.
While all the other analysts are still criticising Luka Doncic, LeBron James is defending him. They both further discussed the 73-point game of Doncic, where he played a dominating game. It was a masterful performance from him that made his name in the history of the NBA.
