LeBron James has been on a tear since Luka Doncic joined the Los Angeles Lakers. This dynamic duo has drawn comparisons to another legendary partnership— Tom Brady's time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Colin Cowherd's comparison of LeBron's recent run to Brady's success in Tampa is not only intriguing but also highlights the impact of these two sports icons on their respective teams.
Unstoppable duo Luka Doncic and LeBron James taking over the NBA
LeBron James and Luka Doncic have quickly become a formidable pair on the court. Since Doncic's arrival, LeBron has been playing at an extraordinary level, reminiscent of Tom Brady's performance with the Buccaneers. Brady, who joined the Bucs in 2020, led the team to a Super Bowl victory in his first season, defying age and expectations. Similarly, LeBron has been putting up impressive numbers and showing renewed energy since Doncic joined the Lakers.
LeBron James has been playing some of the best basketball of his career since Doncic's arrival. His stats have been off the charts, with averages of 29.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 7.3 assists per game. This level of performance at the age of 40 is unheard of in the NBA. LeBron's ability to maintain such high standards is a testament to his dedication and skill.
Colin Cowherd said, “LeBron is reminding everybody right now, ‘Yeah, for 10 years the East went through me. … Now the West is going to go through me”
Adding to that Collin also said "When Tom Brady beat Mahomes at Arrowhead Stadium in the AFC Championship and then beat him in the Super Bowl, everybody was falling in love and was sort of saying 'Brady's old, not a lot left in the tank for old Tommy, Mahomes is the new king. And Brady beat him twice. Tom Brady reminding you, 'It goes through me.”
