This season, it looked like LeBron was finally going to succumb to Father Time, but he has since washed away a slow start. I'm back from an 8 day vacation. James has been a total wreck as of late, helping the Lakers go 7-2 in their past nine games. As L.A. undertook, dallas mavericks As of Tuesday night, the Lakers had already moved into fifth place in the Western Conference standings.
In the first quarter, James looked at the clock again and pulled off a signature dunk that combined speed and power like no other.

While everyone in the arena was losing their minds at the play, James stole Dallas' inbounds pass, creating another scoring opportunity for the Lakers.

LeBron has been great since leaving the team. The Lakers made a big move by adding Dorian Finney-Smith to the roster, but they still have the assets to add new pieces.
Can the Lakers really make it this year? If James plays like this, it's not impossible.
