Great to see LeBron regaining his form. This bodes well for the Lakers and potential free agents who had any concerns over Lebron’s imminent decline or health in regards to his groin injury…. Expecting Lebron to consistently drop 30-35 points after sitting out 5 weeks" from a groin injury is just idiotic. Steph curry talked about Lebron's injury when it happened...
Curry sat out 11 gms earlier this season with a groin injury. He struggled shooting the ball after he made his return. In his first 14 games back. Curry had some less than stellar shooting performances:
7-17 fg
3-12 fg
6-16 fg
7-22 fg
5-17 fg
6-15 fg
These were the shooting numbers in 6 of Curry's first 14 games back...I remember defending Curry's poor shooting when peop[le started clowning him.
LeBron missed 18 gms, is not a natural shooter like Curry, and was 15-20 heavier than his normal playing weight at the time of his return...So you would expect him to take a little longer regaining his shooting touch/conditioning/Rhythm.
