@BiasedHouston: “For the first time in my entire life, LeBron James actually looks old on a basketball court.”
@LADEig: “LeBron man 🥲”
@stonecoldblk: “I don’t think people realize how much age has caught up to him. He’s said it himself, he’s hurting all the time at this point I know he’s not in game shape at all, but making sure he’s gonna be in shape and healthy for the playoffs is not gonna be easy”
@BrettSiegelNBA: “BREAKING: LeBron James’ streak of 1,297 consecutive games with 10+ points officially ends, as he scored just 8 points in the Lakers’ 123-120 win vs. Toronto tonight. This marks the first time James hasn’t scored at least 10 points in a game since January 5, 2007 vs. Milwaukee.”
@AnthonyIrwinLA: “LeBron’s scoring is obviously off but his passing has been excellent tonight.”
@Still_Dre536: “Bron the ultimate team player bruh cuz the streak was on the line and he made the right play for the game winner, that’s LeBron his whole career what a way for the streak to end”

@MaskedInLA: “yeah Bron not getting a single call tonight”
@LALMuse: “WHAT DOES LEBRON HAVE TO DO FOR A FOUL CALL????”
@LegendOfWinning: “All trolling aside. LeBron, please… not like this”
@BronnyMuse06: “LeBron lost his whistle ok”
@koapaden: “It’s a wrap. Lebron it’s time to hang it up”
Underdog: “R.I.P. to the LeBron 10-point reg. season streak 🪦 Last time LeBron didn’t score 10 points in a regular season game: – The iPhone wasn’t released yet – Luka Doncic was 7 years old – KD wasn’t in the NBA yet – Cowboys had the same amount of NFC title game appearances”
@brawadis: “I refuse to believe LeBron has lost THIS much of his athleticism just because he’s a few months older than last season. I think the sciatica is lingering”
James had come into the night with averages of 15.2 points, 4.0 rebounds and 7.2 assists per contest while shooting 46.0% from the field and 31.8% from three-point range in five games.
