Lakers forward LeBron James recently participated in Nash's podcast program. In an interview, he talked about the injury to the Timberwolves in the first round of the playoffs, James said three sentences -

The first sentence, James said that this knee injury was the first knee injury in his personal career in 22 years. Although he suffered injuries such as tendinitis in the game, the knee injury affected his game condition for the first time in his career. I have to say that James' physical fitness is really good. He played for the first time in 22 seasons, which is enough to prove whether James is preparing for his physical condition on weekdays. In the second sentence, James said that it was a good thing that the Lakers were eliminated so that he could get enough rest for himself. After the injury, the doctor advised him to rest for 4-6 weeks to recover, and now he has enough time to recuperate. The most important thing for a veteran is physical health. After all, the Lakers' initial goal this season is not to win the championship. After all, being eliminated in the first round has made the Lakers realize many problems. It is key to speed up the solution during the offseason. In the third sentence of

, James said in the show that if the Lakers win G5 and tie the score to 2:3, he will still not play in the next G6 or even G7. Obviously, the injuries James suffered this game had a great impact on him. Without James on the court, Doncic still finds it difficult to lead by attacking alone, and in the first round, the Lakers have many internal problems and almost no possibility of a comeback.

As a player who has played for 22 years, although James failed to lead the team to the second round this season, the influence he brought on the court cannot be ignored. In this round of the series, James' rebounds, steals and blocks were the first in the team. In the first round of the series, James' performance on the defensive end was visible to the naked eye.

Next, James will wear the No. 23 jersey and usher in his 23rd season in his career. Regardless of whether he can win the championship again in the future, James's career is great enough. At this age, he can have such a competitive state and physical health. As the longest river in history, James' legend continues.
