NBA Twitter reacts to LeBron’s 48-point night on MLK Day: ‘He is still HIM’

[ad_1]
LeBron James went off for 48 points in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 140-132 win over the Houston Rockets on MLK Day.
LeBron flirted with a triple-double, adding eight rebounds and nine assists in an important victory for his Lakers.
As expected, NBA Twitter reacted to the King’s incredible performance.
LeBron scoring 30+ on guys that were new borns when he first got to the league. That’s crazy…

48-8-9 for LeBron in a game where literally played against the son of someone he played against as a rookie.
Just a total alien.

Shengun said having LeBron need to defend him was “a great moment,” one he’ll tell his kids about someday. He said he did some trash talking but would not share what was said.

In 20 years, the goat debate is going to be between Cleveland LeBron, Miami LeBron, and Los Angeles LeBron.

We needed 50 from Lebron to beat the worst team in basketball by 8 points.
Shaking my head.

LeBron 48/8/9, zero turnovers on 16/26 shooting. What he’s doing is unreal for any age, what he’s doing at his age has never come close to happening before.
