Just a random observation regarding LeBron, who has been mostly excellent throughout the year:
PPG: 25.6, lowest since his rookie year
FG%: 49.0%, lowest since 08-09
3PT%: 35.4%, lowest since 10-11
FT%: 71.5%, lowest since 07-08
RPG: 6.0, lowest since his rookie year
SPG: 1.6, tied for lowest of his career
All of that, and he's still unquestionably one of the top 5 players in the league, but his decline is very real. I've never really been a fan of his, but I'm really looking forward to seeing how his game develops as he ages more and loses his freakish athleticism and has to play an even more cerebral game.
